Assign a different proxy and IP address to each browser tab. Per-tab proxy switcher with free proxy import, live testing, and geolocation.

Smart Proxy Tabs gives every browser tab its own proxy server and IP address.
While other proxy extensions switch one global proxy for the entire browser,
Smart Proxy Tabs works per tab — Tab 1 runs through a US proxy, Tab 2 runs
through a UK proxy, Tab 3 runs direct. All at the same time. No browser
profile switching. No VPN toggling. Just open the popup, pick a proxy from
the dropdown for each tab, and keep working.

WHO THIS IS BUILT FOR
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

DIGITAL MARKETERS managing multiple social media accounts, ad accounts, or
client profiles who need each tab to appear as a different user from a
different location — without logging in and out or opening separate browser
profiles.

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGERS running multiple Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, TikTok,
or Reddit accounts who need separate IP addresses per account to avoid
platform detection and account linking.

DATA ANALYSTS AND SCRAPERS running location-based data collection who need
different IP addresses per target site simultaneously — without being rate
limited or IP banned mid-session.

DEVELOPERS AND QA ENGINEERS testing geo-restricted content, regional
paywalls, country-specific APIs, or location-based redirects across multiple
regions at the same time without switching VPNs.

PRIVACY USERS who want separate digital identities across tabs without
switching browser profiles, installing antidetect browsers, or paying for
enterprise tools.

SEO PROFESSIONALS checking local search rankings from different countries
simultaneously, verifying geo-targeted landing pages, or testing location-
based personalization across multiple markets.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CORE FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

PER-TAB PROXY ASSIGNMENT
Assign any proxy profile to any individual tab from the popup. The proxy
switches automatically when you click between tabs using Chrome's native
proxy API and a PAC script engine. No manual proxy changes. No browser
restarts.

PROXY PROFILE MANAGER
Create and save unlimited proxy profiles with a custom label, IP address,
port number, protocol (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, SOCKS5), and optional username
and password for authenticated proxies. Profiles are color-coded and saved
permanently in Chrome local storage.

FREE PROXY IMPORTER WITH LIVE TESTING
Import free proxy lists from 16 public sources directly inside the extension.
Six sources are verified APIs that only return proxies with confirmed uptime
in the last 24 hours. After importing, run a live connectivity test to filter
working proxies from dead ones. Working proxies display real response time in
milliseconds. Dead proxies are automatically crossed out and separated.

COUNTRY FLAGS AND IP GEOLOCATION
One click loads the country flag and geolocation data for every imported IP
address using a free batch geolocation API. The country flag displays inline
next to each proxy. Country name appears on hover. When you add a geolocated
proxy as a profile, the country name is automatically included in the profile
label.

MANUAL PROXY INPUT
Enter any proxy IP address and port number directly without going through the
import flow. Useful for private proxies, residential proxies, datacenter
proxies, or ISP proxies from paid proxy providers.

BULK APPLY
Assign one proxy to every open tab in a single click. Useful for switching
your entire browser session to a new IP, rotating proxies across all tabs,
or resetting all tabs back to direct connection.

PRIVACY AND FINGERPRINT PROTECTION SETTINGS
Built-in settings panel for User Agent configuration, WebRTC leak protection
(prevents your real IP from leaking through WebRTC), canvas fingerprint
protection, and timezone spoofing to match your proxy's geographic location.

DARK AND LIGHT MODE
Full dark mode and light mode with a navy blue and white theme. Switch in one
click from the settings panel.

HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Smart Proxy Tabs uses Chrome's native chrome.proxy API combined with a
dynamic PAC (Proxy Auto-Configuration) script engine. When you assign a proxy
to a tab and click that tab, the extension writes a PAC script that routes
traffic for that tab's active connection through your chosen proxy server.
The switch happens automatically on tab focus — no button clicking required
after initial setup.

Proxy credentials for authenticated proxies are stored locally in Chrome
storage. No credentials, proxy configurations, or browsing data are ever
transmitted to external servers.

COMMON QUESTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Can I use a different IP address for each Chrome tab?
Yes. That is exactly what Smart Proxy Tabs does. Each tab gets its own proxy
assignment, which means each tab makes requests from a different IP address.

Does Chrome support per-tab proxies natively?
Chrome does not support per-tab proxy settings natively. Smart Proxy Tabs
achieves per-tab proxy routing using Chrome's PAC script API, which allows
routing rules to be applied dynamically based on the active tab.

Can I manage multiple social media accounts with different IPs in one browser?
Yes. Assign a different proxy to each tab, and each account will make
requests from a different IP address — making them appear as separate users
to the platform.

Will free proxies from the importer actually work?
The importer fetches proxies from 16 sources and includes 6 verified uptime
APIs. After importing, run the live test to filter live proxies from dead
ones. Response time in milliseconds is shown for each working proxy.

Does the extension prevent WebRTC IP leaks?
Yes. The settings panel includes WebRTC leak protection, which disables
WebRTC IP exposure so your real IP address does not leak through browser
WebRTC requests even when a proxy is active.

Does it work with SOCKS5 proxies?
Yes. Smart Proxy Tabs supports HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5 proxy
protocols, including authenticated SOCKS5.

Can I use this for web scraping with rotating proxies?
Yes. Assign different proxies across multiple tabs to run parallel scraping
sessions from different IP addresses simultaneously.

Is my proxy password stored securely?
All proxy credentials are stored locally in Chrome's local storage on your
device. Nothing is sent to external servers.

Can I test if a proxy is working before using it?
Yes. Use the built-in live test after importing proxies. Working proxies
display their response time in milliseconds. Dead proxies are automatically
crossed out.

Does it show which country a proxy is from?
Yes. One click fetches country flags and geolocation data for all imported
proxies using a batch geolocation API.

Assign a different proxy and IP address to each browser tab. Per-tab proxy switcher with free proxy import, live testing, and geolocation.

This extension gives every browser tab its own proxy server and IP address. Get a unique IP per tab Chrome browser — each tab runs through a separate proxy. While other proxy extensions switch one global proxy for the entire browser, Smart Proxy Tabs is the only IP per tab Chrome browser solution that works per tab — Tab 1 runs through a US proxy with its own IP, Tab 2 runs through a UK proxy with its own IP, Tab 3 runs direct. All at the same time. The best IP per tab Chrome browser extension for managing multiple accounts and locations simultaneously.

description

Smart Proxy Tabs is a Chrome extension that assigns a different proxy server to each browser tab. Every tab gets its own IP address instead of sharing one across the entire browser.

Core function:

Open the popup, see all your tabs, pick a proxy for each one from a dropdown. The extension switches the active proxy automatically when you click between tabs using Chrome's proxy API and a PAC script engine.

Proxy profiles:
Create profiles with a label, IP, port, scheme (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, SOCKS5), and optional username and password. Profiles are color-coded and saved permanently in Chrome local storage.

Free proxy importer:
Fetches proxy lists from 16 public sources. Six are verified APIs that only return proxies with confirmed uptime in the last 24 hours. After fetching, run a live test to filter working proxies from dead ones. Working proxies display response time in milliseconds. Dead ones are crossed out automatically.

Country flags and geolocation:
One button loads the country flag and location for every imported IP using a free batch geolocation API. Flag shows inline, country name shows on hover. Profile labels auto-include the country name when added.

Manual proxy input:
Type any IP and port directly without going through the import flow.

Bulk apply:
Assign one proxy to all open tabs in one click.

Settings:
User Agent configuration, WebRTC leak protection, canvas fingerprint protection, timezone spoofing. Dark and light mode with navy blue and white theme.

Built for digital marketers managing multiple accounts, developers testing geo-restricted content, data analysts running location-based scraping, and privacy users who need separate identities across tabs without switching browser profiles.
