# IPhone and IPad

Use this step-by-step guide to configure your 9Proxy Residential Proxy on an iOS device.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Important

* iOS only supports HTTP proxies over Wi-Fi networks.
* HTTPS and SOCKS5 are not supported, and proxies cannot be used on cellular (mobile) networks.
  {% endhint %}

The screenshots referenced were taken using iOS 16.1

## 1. Before You Begin

Make sure you’ve already generated a proxy session.

Not sure how? View the proxy setup guide [here](https://docs.9proxy.com/getting-started/residential-proxy-by-gb/proxy-generation).

## 3. Here’s a sample setup using 9Proxy

* **Server**: 38.180.149.107
* **Port**: 17521
* **Authentication**: ON
* **Username**: useruser123-country-US-ssid-rhdN1907ma
* **Password**: X12345678

The username includes your proxy targeting settings like country, session ID, etc. For help creating your custom proxy username, refer to [this guide](https://docs.9proxy.com/getting-started/residential-proxy-by-gb/making-requests).

That’s it! Once saved, your iOS device will start routing internet traffic from this Wi-Fi connection through the proxy server you configured.
