User reviews
Users appreciate Proxy Switcher for its straightforward, effective proxy switching and support for Proxy PAC files without intrusive features. However, multiple reviews highlight significant limitations such as support for only one custom proxy at a time, lack of site-specific proxy application, absence of a save button leading to lost settings, no SOCKS proxy support, and forced reliance on system proxy mode. These issues affect usability and flexibility, preventing it from being a top-tier proxy management tool.
Pros
- Works effectively for basic proxy switching needs
- Supports Proxy PAC files, which is valuable for advanced configurations
- Simple and straightforward to use
- Does not include intrusive features that compromise user privacy
Cons
- Only one custom proxy can be used at a time, limiting flexibility
- Lacks functionality to apply proxy only to specific websites, forcing users to list many sites unnecessarily
- No save button for custom proxy settings, causing loss of configurations upon refresh
- Does not support SOCKS proxies, restricting proxy protocol options
- Sometimes forces switching to system proxy mode and only supports HTTP connections

Единственное норм приложение которое работает. Но не хватает одной функции. Не исключать отдельные сайты из сканирования а добавить возможность чтобы прокси использовался только для определенных сайтов. Например мне нужно чтобы прокси работал только для ютуба. Но мне приходится внести куча сайтов в список только ради одного сайта. Сделайте пожалуйста эту функцию и это будет топ расширение
