Proxy SwitchyOmega - Quick & Easy Proxy Management for Chrome

Proxy SwitchyOmega is a powerful Chrome extension that provides a swift, convenient way of managing multiple proxy settings. Outperforming its predecessors - SwitchySharp, SwitchyPlus, and Proxy Switchy, this modern tool doesn't require manual inputs for proxy configuration. With its Auto Switch feature, it enables automatic proxy selection for specified websites. However, it doesn't contain its own proxy server or VPNs, users need to provide their trusted proxies. It offers exceptional performance in generating PAC scripts and switching while ensuring improved user experience.
