The tools folks hook up to our lines

DuoPlus

DuoPlus rents you Android phones that live in a data center. You run them from a browser tab, install apps, and keep each one separate. Trouble is, out of the box those phones connect from a server farm, and plenty of American apps can tell. Put a USAProx line on each DuoPlus phone and it goes online through an honest-to-goodness US carrier, the way a phone in somebody's pocket would.

1. Log in to your USAProx account and jot down the server address, port number, login and password for one line.
2. Over in DuoPlus, pull up the settings for the cloud phone you want to fix up and look for its proxy spot.
3. Pick SOCKS5 or HTTP to match the port you wrote down, then fill in the rest.
4. Hit the proxy test DuoPlus offers. You want to see an American carrier name come back.
5. Power the phone on and load a what-is-my-IP site in its browser to double-check.

• Set the phone's clock and region to the same part of the country as your line before you sign in to any apps.
• One line per phone is the cleanest way to run it. Sharing a line means those phones show up with the same address.

VMOS Cloud

VMOS Cloud gives you full Android phones in the cloud that you drive from your computer or from their app. Each one has its own apps and storage. Folks use them to run app accounts for clients, try out an app the way someone in Houston or Phoenix would see it, and check prices that only show up on mobile. Our line swaps the hosting connection for a genuine American cell connection.

1. Grab the login info for a line off your USAProx dashboard.
2. Open the VMOS Cloud phone and head to wherever it keeps network or proxy options.
3. Pick which protocol you want, then enter the address, port, login name and password one at a time.
4. Run the connection check it offers and make sure it lands in the States.

• If an app still acts like it is overseas, check the phone's language and time zone. The proxy only fixes the connection.

GeeLark

GeeLark is another cloud phone service. Every phone profile runs Android in the cloud, and each profile gets its own proxy box. It suits people who work inside mobile apps all day and would rather not own a shelf of handsets. Drop a USAProx line into a profile and that phone reaches the internet the way real American phones do.

1. Copy a line's connection info from your USAProx account.
2. In GeeLark, edit the phone and look for where the proxy goes.
3. Choose between HTTP and SOCKS5, then type in the four pieces of info.
4. Test it, then start the phone and give it a quick look from its own browser.

• Hook up the line first and sign in to your apps second. That way the account never sees the phone on any other connection.

AdsPower

AdsPower keeps a stack of separate browser profiles, each acting like its own computer, and it can run simple automations for you too. Ad folks and store owners lean on it. Since most people browse social and shopping sites on their phones anyway, a cell carrier IP fits right in.

1. Start a fresh profile in AdsPower, or open one you already have.
2. Scroll to the proxy part of the form.
3. Pick the connection type and paste in your USAProx details.
4. Click the check button and make sure an American carrier shows up.

• Plan on keeping the same IP for the whole time you are working in a profile, and only switch it when you are done.

GoLogin

GoLogin stores your browser profiles online, so you can open the same one from home, the office or a coworker's machine. Because the line is yours alone, that profile always shows up on the same American connection no matter who opens it.

1. Pull up the profile in GoLogin and go to the proxy settings.
2. Type in the connection details from your USAProx account.
3. Run their check and confirm it lands in the right city.
4. Save it and you are set.

• Need a different city? Switching your line to a different city we serve costs nothing and you do it yourself from the dashboard.

Incogniton

Incogniton is a profile browser that is easy to learn and also plays nice with Selenium and Puppeteer when you want to automate. Smaller shops like it because it does not take long to get comfortable.

1. Open a profile in Incogniton and click over to its proxy area.
2. Enter the protocol along with the address, port and login from us.
3. Use the built-in test to see which carrier and city come up.
4. Save and open the profile.

• If the test fails, copy the password again. A stray space at the end is the number one reason it will not connect.

Multilogin

Multilogin is one of the old hands in this space. It has two browser engines, one Chrome-style and one Firefox-style, and good tools for bigger teams. It works with our lines the same way it works with any proxy that needs a login.

1. Open or create a Multilogin profile and track down where proxies get set.
2. Choose HTTP or SOCKS5.
3. Fill in the USAProx connection info.
4. Run the check, then launch.

• Let the profile pull its time zone from the IP so the clock and the connection tell the same story.

BitBrowser

BitBrowser runs lots of browser windows side by side, each one walled off from the others, and it has team logins for shared work. A USAProx line gives a window a real carrier address that nobody else is using.

1. Make a new window profile or edit an old one.
2. Open the proxy settings and pick your connection type.
3. Enter the login info from your dashboard.
4. Let BitBrowser check it, then save.

• If you load proxies from a list, try one line first so you know the columns are in the order it wants.

MostLogin

MostLogin has not been around as long as some of the others. If you have used any of the others, you will find your way around fast. Our lines go in through the regular proxy fields, nothing special needed.

1. Make yourself a new MostLogin profile.
2. Go to its proxy page and pick the connection type.
3. Put in the address, port, login and password from USAProx.
4. Test it and save.

• After saving, fire up the profile and check a what-is-my-IP site one time so you know what the websites will see.

Selenium

Selenium is free software for making a browser click and type on its own, driven by code you write. It is great for checking your own site, watching prices or testing what shows up for American visitors. One catch: Chrome will not take a proxy login from its startup settings, so you need a small add-on or a local relay program to pass the password along.

1. Keep your USAProx login in environment variables, not written into the script.
2. In your browser setup code, point the proxy at the line's address and port.
3. Add a small extension or local relay that answers the login request, or handle the login popup in Firefox.
4. Make the first stop of every run a what-is-my-IP site, and print what it says.
5. When you want a new IP between runs, have the script call your line's rotation link.

• You can switch IPs as often as you like with no waiting, but doing it in the middle of a logged-in session tends to log you out.
