Launching Incogniton

First of all, you need to buy residential and mobile proxies, datacenter proxies. The type depends on tasks you need to perform. You can always ask our Client Support for advice. On your account’s page you’ll see a proxy list with the IP addresses and ports of the geo targeted proxies you’ve got. This data will be necessary to use Incogniton at its best.

Now go to Incogniton.com. There are four pricing rates available, including a free one called “Starter”. 

It has a limited number of profiles for saving but no limitations of its functions, which makes it an appealing choice for beginners. We’ll use a “Starter” rate as an example.

Click the “Get Started” button, visit the shopping cart page, and enter your contact details.

Then click the “Subscribe” button, download the program for your OS (Mac or Windows) in the appropriate section, and run it.

Adding proxies

The Incogniton antidetect browser has a simple and user-friendly interface, so we’ll briefly describe the main steps.

First, create a New profile. You can do it on the Manage Profiles tab by clicking the New Profile button.

Now you need to personalize a profile used with Astro geo targeted proxies. Note that on the left there is a menu with settings tabs available. And on the right is a window with current parameters to track all the changes made real-time.

We’ll use the default options. Let us say that you’d better use the settings for the OS coinciding with the OS installed on your device for larger safety.

Digital fingerprint settings are changed automatically when you click the "Generate New Fingerprint" button. It is useful when you create 10 or 100+ profiles and make each one individual. For every profile you’d better use a new IP. You can buy residential and mobile proxies instantly, just as the best datacenter proxies. Our trusted proxy website has no limits on the number of proxies bought. 

Some fingerprint settings in Incogniton, such as Canvas Fingerprint, AudioContext, WebGL metadata are available on the “Hardware” tab. The characteristics of the virtual device you emulate for profiles, such as Screen resolution, number of processor cores, etc. are located on the "JS Settings" tab.

We are mostly interested in the "Proxy Server" tab.

Specify the type of protocol, (1) HTTP (S) or SOCKS5. As one of the most trusted proxy websites, we provide all our proxies ready to connect via any of these protocols. Now we use SOCKS5 as an example. 

Next, enter the IP address and port (2) of the geo targeted proxies you get from our site. Fill in the login (3) and password (4) boxes.

You can tick the "Rotating proxy server" box, if you need to change the external IP during the session. All our proxies are dynamic, and they can change IP on every connection, on demand, or at the time interval you set.

Proxy setup is complete. Click the "Check proxy server" button (6). If everything is alright, Incogniton will display detailed information about the proxy in green font. By default, the browser performs an automatic proxy check every time you launch an app.

Finally, push the "Create profile" button (7).

Here you can see two profiles. The one on the top has geo targeted proxies with geolocation in Germany enabled. All you need to do is click the “Get Started” button (1) to open the Chrome browser window. 

The second profile below has no proxy attached. It is obvious by the “Proxy disabled” mark. You can run this profile as it is and risk getting a ban. Or you may click the logo with three dots (2), select "Edit" and enter the proxy IP and port received on our webpage. The setup process in this case is the same as for the new profile.

We serve the best datacenter proxies, and you can buy residential and mobile proxies, too. All of them are good to use with Incogniton antidetect browser. Choose proxies according to the needs you have, and use them with Incogniton. It will increase your protection from websites’ anti-spam and anti-fraud systems. 

Protect yourself from captcha filters and avoid blocking your proxy or account with trusted websites with proxy and antidetect browser!
