Setting up Firefox with Tor on Android
|
||
**************************************
|
||
|
||
.. warning::
|
||
This guide assumes you have completed :ref:`setting up Tor for Android<tor-android>`. Please visit this section first before you proceed as it is required for Firefox to properly work with Tor.
|
||
|
||
Once Tor is setup on your system, you can proceed to setup Firefox.
|
||
|
||
Download `Firefox Beta <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta>`_ from the Play Store, or Fennec for F-Droid.
|
||
|
||
Now, you need to download a `Proxy Auto Config` file that will use Orbot to resolve :code:`.onion` URLs. We have one hosted `here <https://registry.start9labs.com/sys/proxy.pac>`_.
|
||
|
||
Next, navigate to :code:`about:config` in the Firefox URL bar, like so:

||

|
||
|
||
You are going to have to change a few options in here. First, type ``“network.proxy.type”`` into the search bar, and set the value to ``"2"``:

|
||
|
||
Then, search for ``“network.proxy.autoconfig_url”``, and set the value to ``"file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/proxy.pac"``:

||

||
.. figure:: /_static/images/tor/autoconfig_url.png
|

|
||
|
||
Next, search for ``“network.proxy.socks_remote_dns”``, and set the value to ``"true"``:
|
||
|
||
.. figure:: /_static/images/tor/socks_remote_dns.png
|
||
:width: 80%

||

|
||
|
||
Finally, search for ``“dom.securecontext.whitelist_onions”``, and set the value to ``"true"``:
|
||
|
||
Restart Firefox, and you’re all set! You should now be able to navigate to :code:`.onion` URLs in Firefox. This means you can bookmark Cups Messenger, and use your Bitwarden Tor address in the `Bitwarden Password Manager <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.x8bit.bitwarden&hl=en_US&gl=US>`_ native application. |
