Tun2TAP for Android is an application designed to route all device internet traffic through an intermediary server. It supports both SOCKS5 and HTTP protocols, with no need for a separate VPN client. The main function of using a Tun2TAP proxy is to deliver advanced network control and privacy. Users can manually specify the IP address, port, protocol, and, if needed, login and password for authentication. Once connected, the app establishes a secure tunnel.

Key features include:

  • Complete routing of traffic through the specified server;

  • Selection of apps that should use the tunnel;

  • Manual DNS configuration;

  • UDP support via badvpn-UDP and SOCKS5 UDP Associate.

This method is highly relevant when using public networks or if you need to bypass regional restrictions. Additionally, Tun2TAP proxies are often used in technical projects where all system-level traffic must be routed through an intermediary.

Step-by-Step Proxy Setup in Tun2TAP

For optimal performance, you can choose from different types of servers based on your requirements. For example, static IPv4 proxies are best when you need a stable address and high speed. ISP proxies are considered a more reliable static option, as they are assigned by internet providers with regional binding.

Mobile proxies, in turn, provide maximum anonymity through the rotation of IP addresses issued by mobile operators. This is the preferred solution for ad platforms, data extraction, SMM, or bypassing geo-blocks.

Below is a step-by-step guide for integrating a proxy IP address into Tun2TAP on Android, suitable for any proxy server type.

  1. Open the application, select the connection protocol, and enter the IP address and port in the specified format.

  2. If you use a private solution, choose “Authentication Settings”, activate the “Enable Authentication” checkbox, and enter your username and password in the fields below.

  3. If you need to redirect UDP traffic using “UDP Badvpn”, click on “UDP Settings” and input the required details.

  4. To save all entered details, tap “CONNECT”.

  5. After activation, the system will request confirmation to start using the IP address in the app. Confirm it with the “OK” button.

  6. To select which apps should bypass the connection, tap the three-dot icon in the upper right corner and select “Custom options/routes” from the menu.

  7. From the list, choose the desired app and activate the switch.

Tun2TAP proxy is now configured, and you can work on Android through secure tunnels without the risk of losing privacy or being tracked.

Conclusion

The app provides flexible network configuration, allows DNS management, lets you select which apps bypass the tunnel, and even supports UDP traffic. However, its functionality is limited without a properly configured, stable server.

Our solutions offer stable connections, high speeds, and full compatibility with the program. This makes them the optimal choice for users who want to enhance Tun2TAP’s capabilities and ensure connection security.

FAQ

Why choose Proxy-IPv4 for this app?

We provide stable, high-speed servers that have been tested for compatibility with Tun2TAP. Available types include ISP and mobile carrier options. High uptime and technical support are also guaranteed.

How can DNS leaks be prevented in the app?

To prevent leaks, it’s recommended to manually set DNS servers in Tun2TAP’s settings. For example, you can use Google’s public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or more privacy-oriented options like Cloudflare (1.1.1.1). This prevents domain name resolution through your provider and ensures full DNS encryption.

Does Tun2TAP work with mobile data or only Wi-Fi?

The program is equally stable on Wi-Fi and mobile networks. For Android users, this app is the best method for configuring a proxy for mobile data.
