How to Connect Webshare Proxies

Connecting and configuring your proxies from Webshare in Octo Browser is very simple. Follow these steps and get started in just a few minutes:

1. Access your Webshare proxy list

Log into your Webshare account or create a new account if you haven’t done so already. All new users automatically receive 10 free datacenter proxies & 1GB/month of bandwidth to use for as long as they want.

Once you’re inside, navigate to your Proxy List.
