Usage Notes
Orbot may request different configuration depending on the Android operating system version it is used on.
BROWSING
- You can use the Orweb Privacy Browser which we offer, which only works via Orbot and Tor.
- You can also try Firefox Mobile with our ProxyMob Add-On to browse via the Tor network.
- For Instant Messaging, please try Gibberbot which provides integrated, optional support for Orbot and Tor.
- Transparent Proxying: You must root your device in order for Orbot to work transparently for all web and DNS traffic. If you root your device, whether it is 1.x or 2.x based, Orbot will automatically, transparently proxy all web traffic on port 80 and 443 and all DNS requests. This includes the built-in Browser, Gmail, YouTube, Maps and any other application that uses standard web traffic.
