How to set up a proxy in Memu Play

Memu is an Android emulator designed for Windows and MacOS, allowing you to run Android applications and games on your computer. Key features of the Memu:

• Free to Use: Memu Play is free to download and use, offering a user-friendly interface and great performance on many computers.
• Supports Multiple Android Versions: It supports multiple versions of Android, allowing you to run various apps and games.
• Resource Allocation: You can configure the amount of allocated resources like RAM and CPU to optimize performance.
• Customizable Controls: The emulator allows you to customize keyboard commands and mouse operations for more convenient control of Android apps and games.

Download and install Memu on your computer from the official website. Once installed, Memu will set up an Android image, essentially creating a virtual device. After this setup, you can start running APK installation files or download games directly from the Google Play Store.

When using an Android emulator, mobile proxy helps maintain a genuine mobile IP environment by routing traffic through a cellular operator’s network. This makes network-level characteristics and application behavior closer to real mobile conditions, reducing inconsistencies detected by anti-fraud systems.

Setting up a proxy server in the Memu emulator using Proxifier

The emulator itself doesn't offer a built-in way to set up private proxies. In this example, we'll use the Proxifier program to configure a proxy for Memu.

1. Open Memu and click on the settings icon in the main lobby to access the “System Settings” section. From there, select “Network”.

   

2. To use a proxy, you can either specify a MAC address and network name or generate them automatically. It is important to keep the network mode unchanged. Once generated, click “Okay”. Before setting up a proxy server in Memu, you will need to use Proxifier.

   

3. Download Proxifier from the official website. To configure Memu via Proxifier, you first need to add the emulator to the list of applications for proxy interaction. Open the “Profile” menu and click on “Proxy Servers”.

   

4. Click “Add” in the window that appears to configure a new proxy.

   

5. In the proxy server settings, enter the IP-address and port of the proxy server you want to connect to and select the proxy type (SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 are suitable for games). Then click “OK”.

   

6. Set up proxy rules for the Android emulator by going to the “Profile” tab and opening the “Proxification Rules” section.

   

7. Click the “Add” button to include Memu in the list of permitted applications.

   

8. In the “Applications” section, click “Browse” and locate the emulator's executable file (*exe) in its main folder.

   

9. Click “OK” to save the settings. Then, go to the “Action” section, click on “Advanced”, and select the previously created proxy server from the list of available connections.

   

Instead of mobile option, many users opt for ISP proxy, which provides a fixed IP address and are generally trusted more than datacenter-based solutions.

Memu is a popular Android emulator used by app and game developers to test and debug their products across various Android versions and screen resolutions. It is also favored by gamers who play games on large monitors or laptops, especially for running large-scale games with high-quality graphics on a PC.
