Incogniton is a privacy-focused browser solution that helps users manage multiple online identities through fully isolated profiles. With support for proxy integration and fingerprint control, it’s a powerful tool for tasks that require stealth, testing, or team collaboration.
## **Incogniton setup with Squid Proxies** ### **Step 1: Gather Proxy Details** - Before configuring Incogniton, collect your Squid Proxies details: - IP Address (e.g., `123.456.78.90`) - Port (e.g., `8800`) - Username and Password (_for user/pass auth_) **OR** make sure your current IP is whitelisted (_if using IP authentication_)
### **Step 2: Install & Log In** 1. Visit https://incogniton.com and create an account. 2. Download and install the Incogniton desktop application.

3. Launch the app and sign in with your Incogniton credentials.
### **Step 3: Create a New Profile** 1. Click **New Profile** on the dashboard.

2. Enter a profile name (e.g., Instagram US Proxy or Shopify Manager). 3. Choose your preferred browser type (Chromium or Firefox). 4. Configure your browser fingerprint settings (you can keep defaults or adjust based on your use case).

### **Step 4: Add Your Squid Proxy** 1. Scroll down to the Proxy Settings section of the profile setup. 2. Choose HTTP or HTTPS as the proxy type. 3. Fill in the fields: - IP Address: Your Squid Proxy IP - Port: Usually `8800` unless specified otherwise - Username / Password: Required only for user/pass authentication

4. Click the **Check Proxy** button

✅ You’ll see a success message and the detected proxy location if the proxy is working correctly.
### **Step 5: Launch & Test Proxy** 1. Click "Create Profile" to save it. 2. From your profile list, click "Start" to launch the browser.

3. Inside the new browser window, visit https://whatismyipaddress.com or http://ip-check.net to confirm you're using the correct proxy IP and location.

You're now browsing through a fingerprint-isolated Incogniton profile powered by Squid Proxies!
## **Managing multiple profiles** To manage multiple accounts securely: - Use a different Squid Proxy for each profile. - Label profiles clearly (e.g., Ad Account - Residential UK, Amazon Store - Datacenter US). - Use residential proxies for platforms with stricter IP validation.
## **Troubleshooting** - **Proxy not connecting?** - Double-check the IP, port, and credentials. If using IP authentication, ensure your current IP is correctly whitelisted. - **Wrong IP or location?** - Confirm the correct proxy is selected in the profile, and that the test passed before launching. - **Accounts flagged or blocked?** - Consider using residential proxies with sticky sessions to maintain consistent IP behavior.
## **Best practices** - One proxy per profile to avoid account linking. - Match the proxy location to the account’s country or region for better trust signals. - Use residential proxies for sensitive sites like social media, eCommerce platforms, or ad networks. - Always test new proxies before assigning them to high-value accounts.
