Proxy SwitchyOmega

Manage and switch between multiple proxies quickly & easily.

What is Proxy SwitchyOmega?
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.

Summary
Analyze keywords

Changing proxy settings has never been so convenient. Think SwitchyOmega as a modern version of the "Proxy Settings" dialog, designed to be simpler, quicker and more powerful, specially optimized for Chrome.

No more digging through the advanced section in Chrome settings. No repeated filling and clearing the proxy config dialog of your operating system. Just tell SwitchyOmega about all your proxies, and enjoy switching with one click on the popup menu. You can also teach Auto Switch to use the right proxy for the right website automatically.

This extension replaces SwitchySharp, SwitchyPlus and Proxy Switchy. If you are using SwitchySharp, installing this extension will automatically migrate all profiles and settings for you. As a fallback, you can also export a backup file manually in SwitchySharp and then import the file in SwitchyOmega.

NOTE: Please report issues by RIGHT-clicking the extension icon and select the "Report Issue" in the context menu so that I can locate and fix the issue more quickly.

SwitchyOmega is absolutely free and open source. It does not insert ads into any website. It contains absolutely no malware. It just does proxy configuration, and aims to be perfect tool of that.

Disclaimer: SwitchyOmega does not come with any proxy server, VPNs or anything like that. Thus, SwitchyOmega will not magically unblock websites or protect your privacy, unless you instruct it to use a proxy server which does. You should only use trusted proxy servers, because SwitchyOmega can not protect you from bad proxies that inject ads, track you or record your password. And if you don't have a proxy server, you probably won't need SwitchyOmega. Sounds reasonable, right?
