The Proxy Switcher and Manager Chrome extension allows seamless management and switching between multiple proxy types including SOCKS, PAC, and Direct connections. With profile support, users can save and quickly switch between several proxy server configurations without changing system settings.

Key features include support for inline PAC scripts, refreshing PAC scripts from remote servers, and displaying errors with detailed logging for failed resource requests. The extension uses toolbar icons and badge text to indicate the current proxy profile and any connection issues. Its lightweight design ensures zero resource usage when the panel is closed. This open-source tool is ideal for users seeking to hide their real locations, access blocked websites, or configure network proxies efficiently within the browser.

Recent reviews

This proxy switcher made switching between proxies much easier. It will do the job decently without so many features or additional options; it just handles what it meant to do. Thanks to its dev team.
