Automatically generate a report that can be shared with your network administrators directly from within the app. Very useful for proxy server administrators to monitor and detect configuration problems and service outages. The test report may suggest changes to improve the proxy service experience for users on Android.

Detects and tests proxy services available on the network through Web Proxy Auto-Configuration (WPAD) over DNS (DHCP discovery not supported), and warns if it conflicts with the device configuration. Tests WPAD service availability, downloads, and tests the proxy servers discovered in the Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file.

Running the app can also help the Android operating system select an alternative proxy server in cases of service outages in in multi-proxy setups; or select an alternative network in single-proxy setups.
