iOS Proxy Configuration

To configure your iOS proxy server you have to connect through a Wi-Fi connection.

This guide should work for iOS 10 and 11. Unfortunatly HTTPS tunneling through a proxy with credentials, like debugProxy, doesn't work properly on iOS 9 and lower.

Step 1

Before configuring debugProxy on your iOS device, you need to download and authorise a debugProxy Certificate.
