What is SmartProxy

SmartProxy is a Firefox/Chrome extension based on WebExtensions/Chrome Extensions technology.

It uses patterns to automatically define rules to proxify your web experience. With SmartProxy, you don't need to change your proxy manually and turn it on and off. You can add your desired website to the proxy rules list with just one click. After that, when you visit that specific website, SmartProxy will act and all you data for that website will be transferred though the proxy, without you doing anything.

What's more, SmartProxy is inspired by AutoProxy and AutoProxy-ng and that are now considered legacy. SmartProxy is completely written from ground up using WebExtensions and provides more functionality than those proxies.

Highlights
  • Automatically detect when to enable or disable proxy to certain websites based on rule patterns
  • Easily switch between many proxy servers as your active proxy server setting
  • Easily with one click add current site to your proxy list
  • View current website items and requests and decide whether to proxify them with one click
  • Easily switch between proxy modes and enable proxy for all domains
  • Proxy API is supported through subscriptions
  • Backup/Restore settings and rules
