Apple Ios wifi proxy toggle

In ios, there is manual setting for proxy in wifi setting.  Does anyone knows there is an app to toggle to turn it on/off?    I have some app needs to use proxy but no all.

Hi johnyu1997,

If your iPhone is jailbroken, then you might like this cydia package: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-automatically-turn-on-wi-fi-when-specific-apps-are-launched-on-iphone/

Instead of having to turn your wifi on/off through settings or with an app, this package allows you to set the apps that require wifi and every time you launch them it turns on wifi or every time you close the app it shuts off wifi.

As for an app in the app store that does this, I haven't found one. That said, if you have an iPhone 4s you can hold the home button until Siri beeps and say "launch settings". Now she has brought you to the screen that all you have to do is slide the toggle switch to off.

Hope this helps.

I don't think this is what I need.  I need wifi for all apps but I need proxy for some app only.
this might be possible if your iPhone is jailbroken

Yes,  it is jb
I couldn't find anything in cydia and google
Sbsettings doesn't have a toggle for proxy
But you can make your own tuggle ;)

Thats all
I found a video on youtube for what you want but in the description he wrote that his repo was not working anymore and he won't make another one..
I am sorry I am not so much of a programmer
