You’re done with your homework, tired from exams and ready to zone out with your iPhone or iPad. You check your social networks but find that your favorite sites are all blocked. Then you try to watch a movie. Blocked again! Boredom is settling in and the situation feels desperate. But you’re in luck—there are many ways you can get around those filters from any iOS device.

Things You Should Know

  • Some school filters could go as far as blocking everything on this page, so try to bypass it!
  • If you cannot bypass it, it means your school has a good web filter!
  • If you can use all options, it means your school filter is not very good or non-existent.
  • Many schools will block the App Store, so if it is blocked this could be very hard!

    You may have to do a bit of digging before finding a proxy that hasn’t already been blocked by your school. A web search for “web proxies” will lead to all sorts of options. If your school blocks sites that list proxies, use a network outside of your school to make a list of several web proxy sites to try. Proxy.org is a great site to find a current list of web proxies.
    • Using a web proxy will help you get around web filters but won’t affect your other apps. If you’re trying to use an app that your school has blocked, you’ll have better luck with a VPN.
    • Web proxies can be a bit slow, so be patient while things load.

    In your browser, navigate to the web proxy and look for the box that asks for a URL or web address. It will be near the top of the screen. Enter the address of any site you’d like to visit.

    If your school hasn’t blocked it, you can bypass their filters by using the Tor network. [1] iOS users can use the Tor network by installing Onion Browser from the app store. You can do this from any network.

    Start Onion Browser and try to visit any website. If you are able to pull up regular sites like Google or Apple, you’ll be able to use this method.

    You can use a search the internet for “Free Proxy Servers” to see what’s out there, but you’ll probably need to do this off-campus. HideMyAss has a great list of free proxies.
    • Every proxy server has an IP address and port, so make sure to get both.
    • Some schools block a lot of the ports that proxy servers use. If you’re having a tough time finding an IP proxy that works, that might be the reason.

    Once you have a proxy server, open your Settings app and tap Wi-Fi. Find the network you connect to and tap the blue arrow that points to the right. This will open your network settings.

    Tap "Manual" at the bottom of the screen. You’ll be asked to list the server and port of your proxy. There will also be the option to set up Authentication. You’ll only need to do this if your proxy address also had a username and password listed. If you have a username and password, turn on that option and enter it now.

    A Virtual Private Network will let you view blocked websites and use blocked apps. VPNs subscriptions are relatively inexpensive and easy to set up (some are free, but many of those are untrustworthy—try them at your own risk). ExpressVPN, IPVanish and VyprVPN are all safe VPNs to use.

  • Question
    Every time I try to connect a vpn to my school networks, the WiFi logo in the top left corner disappears and the vpn won't connect. Why is that?
    R2_d2000
    Top Answerer
    The school network is probably detecting the vpn and is kicking you off. Your only option would be to try another vpn.

  • Question
    What do I do if all the proxies and VPN used in school are blocked?
    Community Answer
    You can try SourceForge or GitHub to get anti-censorship software. Also, you can use TOR, I2P or Freegate. TOR is great for unblocking, but it's a bit slow.

      Tips

      • Switch up your proxies as much as possible. Using the same proxy all the time could result in that address being blocked. It could also draw attention to your user activity.
        Thanks

      • There’s something called iOS VPN bypass vulnerability. IOS doesn’t allow VPNs to close long running connections. Turn on and turn off Airplane Mode and use Kill Switch to close the long running connections on iOS.
      • Just be sure not to let your devices distract you from school!

      Warnings

      • Think twice before passing sensitive information over a web proxy. Only send credit card numbers and passwords over networks you trust.
        Thanks
      • Make sure you understand school regulations and your region’s laws. Violating your school, organization or country’s internet policy can get you into trouble. Be very aware of the consequences before you try any of these methods.
        Thanks
      • Using a proxy server could slow down your connection, which may affect the quality of streaming videos.
