FoxyProxy Standard by Eric Jung
Review by RussC
Rated 1 out of 5
by RussC, 9 years agoThis is a giant step back from the wonderful functionality I've come to enjoy as a professional. I realise that this is free software but as it stands right now I am looking for the old version and I will be seeking an alternative.
So much functionality has been lost and a terrifying new GUI put in place, as a professional who relies on the ability to switch proxies I can no longer recommend this to anyone other than a user who has very simple needs.
I can understand that you may need to make progress at some point but really this should've stayed at an Alpha/Beta stage until the majority of features worked.
I wonder how much damage has been done to your reputation for switching this addon in such a state and I really worry for the future of FoxyProxy.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Alt Grey, 8 days agoIt do not work on the browser start for the first moments. So, the browser loads previously opened tabs without using a proxy.

Regarding the issue reported by some users that the extension cannot be used, it is suggested to try changing the value of the "network.proxy.type" setting in about:config. If the value is 0, you can try changing it to 1. If it is PAC, you can change it to 5. - Rated 1 out of 5by cxtbs, a month ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by daydreaming, 2 months agoFor almost a year now, FoxyProxy hasn’t been functioning properly. The extension keeps staying connected to the very first city that was selected during the initial setup. Even when changing the location in the settings, it still remains stuck on that original city.
The developers seriously need to investigate this issue. Me and several other users have been experiencing the same problem, and the only temporary fix seems to be uninstalling and reinstalling the extension completely. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18586574, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Lulu5239, 7 months agoWorks and the log feature is useful, but there is a chance that this slows down my phone's performance when watching videos, even without any proxy selected. I now disable this extension when not actually using it.
