A complete proxy manager inside Chrome.

The PreProx Chrome extension keeps three connection sources in one compact panel: pay-as-you-go residential proxies, active static lease IPs, and manual proxy profiles. Sign in to synchronize supported PreProx products or continue without an account when you only need to configure your own endpoint.

Residential proxy data

Use purchased residential GB and browse available country, state, or city locations from the Residential tab.

Static lease IP sync

Sign in to load eligible active mobile and WiFi lease IPs without repeatedly copying connection credentials.

Manual proxy profiles

Save compatible HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 endpoints with optional authentication and return to them later.

Secure account synchronization

Use PreProx login, optional Security PIN verification, and remembered credentials to synchronize supported account access.

Country, state, and city search

Search residential locations, expand the matching hierarchy, and connect from either search results or the location list.

Rotation and sticky sessions

Choose rotating residential IP behavior or a sticky duration from 10 minutes up to 7 days where available.

Residential protocol settings

Save a preferred SOCKS5, HTTP, or HTTPS option for new residential connections, subject to Chrome protocol support.

Automatic connection details

After a new connection, review the detected IP address, country, city, and speed returned by the extension check.

WebRTC leak protection

The extension applies Chrome WebRTC privacy controls while a verified proxy connection is active.

Choose the proxy source that fits your Chrome workflow.

Switch between Residential, Static Lease, and Manual without leaving the extension. Only one proxy connection is active in Chrome at a time.

Know which proxy Chrome is using.

The popup keeps the selected tab, target location, residential balance, and connection state visible. The toolbar icon changes when a proxy is active, and the connection panel appears only after a newly completed connection.

  • Detected IP, country, city, and speed after a new connection
  • Connected, connecting, and disconnected states in one toolbar panel
  • One active manual, static lease, or residential proxy at a time

Common Questions

Installation, compatibility, proxy access, and account requirements explained directly.

What is the PreProx Chrome extension?
It is a Chrome proxy manager for residential proxy data, eligible static lease IPs, and compatible manual proxy profiles. It applies one selected proxy connection to Chrome from the browser toolbar.
Do I need a PreProx account to use the Chrome extension?
An account is required to synchronize PreProx residential data and static lease IPs. You can use the Manual section without signing in when you already have a compatible proxy endpoint.
Does the extension include residential GB or a static IP?
No. Residential data and static leases are purchased separately. Sign in with the same PreProx account after purchase to synchronize eligible access.
Can I add my own proxy to Chrome?
Yes. The Manual section lets you save a host, port, protocol, and optional username and password for a compatible proxy you are authorized to use.
Can I search residential proxies by state or city?
Yes. The extension can search country, state, and city entries and displays the matching location hierarchy. Actual targeting availability depends on current residential network inventory.
Can I use rotating and sticky residential IPs?
Yes. Residential settings include rotating behavior and supported sticky durations from 10 minutes through 7 days. The selected location and network availability still determine the result.
Which proxy protocols does the Chrome extension support?
The interface supports SOCKS5, HTTP, and HTTPS settings. Chrome does not support username-and-password authentication for SOCKS5, so authenticated endpoints should use HTTP or an IP-allowlisted SOCKS5 configuration.
How does the extension verify a proxy connection?
After a new connection, the extension checks the public route and can display the detected IP address, country, city, and speed. Review those details before relying on a location-sensitive workflow.
Does the PreProx extension protect against WebRTC leaks?
The extension applies Chrome WebRTC privacy controls while a verified proxy is active. Browser privacy still depends on cookies, accounts, extensions, DNS, and other signals, so a proxy alone does not make a user anonymous.
Does the extension change my whole device connection?
No. It controls Chrome proxy settings while the selected connection is active; other applications keep their own network configuration.
Where should I install the official PreProx extension?
Use the Chrome Web Store button on this page and confirm the listing is named PreProx Proxy Extension and links back to preprox.com.
