For this test, we suggest Termux, which is a powerful terminal emulator that provides a full Linux environment on mobile devices. It allows running the cURL command-line directly from a mobile device. Termux is supported on Android and iOS devices and enables advanced networking tasks typically performed on desktop systems.

​
Why is cURL useful?

cURL is a command-line tool used to send requests. It is commonly used to verify proxy connectivity and test network responses. When used with proxies, it routes traffic through a specified IP address, which helps test different geographic locations and diagnose connectivity issues. It also returns clear response codes and IP information for troubleshooting and verification purposes. A successful proxy connection accompanied by valid IP response data indicates that the proxy is operational.

​
Termux Setup

Step 1. Download Termux from the Play Store (Android) or App Store (iOS) on your device. Step 2. Open the application and enter: pkg install curl. Step 3. Tap new line on your keyboard. Step 4. Enter the cURL command using your own proxy credentials: 
curl -U 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' -x gate.decodo.com:7000 https://ip.decodo.com/
  • Don’t forget to use the endpoint and port corresponding to the specific proxy type you are using.
