Incogniton stands out as a widely used anti-detect browser choice. Like its counterparts, it lets users create and manage individual chrome browser profiles. Each profile has a unique fingerprint and proxy settings.
At anyIP, we provide mobile and residential proxies around the world. Our high-quality proxies allow our clients to use them for many purposes, including scraping data, managing social accounts, and online activities. Years of experience in the field give us the know-how to exceed client expectations consistently.
This tutorial will help you integrate an anyIP.io proxy easily into Incogniton.
How to create and use a profile in Incogniton
Incogniton has a well-designed form for creating a new profile. There are many optional features, but it's a simple process that feels natural.
Try it yourself by following this guide.
Step 1: create a new profile
- Click on “New profile” to open the creation form.
‍
Step 2: Choose a profile name
- Enter a name for your new browser profile.
- Click on “Add proxy” to configure the proxy.
‍
Step 3: Configure the proxy
The most important step! Adding the proxy!
- Select the protocol you want to use. Incogniton is compatible with HTTP, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5 proxy.
- Enter your host and port information. For our example, we use the host of anyIP.io:
- portal.anyip.io:1080
- Enter your username.
- Then, you can type your password.
- You can specify the change IP URL, very useful to quickly refresh your IP.
- After reviewing your credentials, click on “Check proxy” to check the proxy connection.
When your proxy is working well, Incogniton will automatically display the details like:
- IP
- GMT offset
- Country name and code
- Timezone/timecode
- Latitude and Longitude
It’s very useful to quickly check if you have the right proxy configuration.
Step 4: save your profile
The last step is also the most obvious, but we need to save this profile.
- After checking your proxy, you can click "Create profile" to save it.
Once the form is validated, you should see your new profile on your dashboard as follows:
If you click on the profile line, Incogniton will display a few information below. Perfect to have a quick look of your profile settings.
Step 5: Start and stop the profile
Now that our profile is ready, all we need is to launch it.
- Click on “Start” to launch your browser profile.
Like MultiLogin or other anti-detect browser, Incogniton launches an instance of a custom browser using your configuration. You can see the profile name you configure and customize the browser if you want.
If you visit browserleaks.com/ip, you’ll see your browser profile IP and location.
- To stop the browser, click the “Stop” button on the launched profile on your dashboard.
And voila! Your profile is all set, jump into the next section to learn how to manage your proxies.

How to manage your proxies
In my opinion, one of the most important feature for an anti-detect browser is the proxy management. Incogniton have a dedicated dashboard that ease the creation, edition and test of all of your residential proxies.
Click on “Proxy Management” to access the proxy management dashboard.
From this dashboard, you can easily:
- create a single proxy or bulk;
- edit or delete a setting;
- quickly recheck all your proxy connections;
Create a new proxy
Create a single proxy one by one
If you’re using Incogniton for a personal usage, you’ll love this. Easy and straightforward.
- Click on “New proxy” or “Create Single Proxy” to open the creation form.
- Choose the proxy type for your proxy. You can choose HTTP, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5.
- Enter a name to quickly identify your proxy. We entered “anyIP - Germany.”
- Enter the host:port for your proxy. Here: portal.anyip.io:1080
- Enter your username/password.
- If you need to, specify here the rotation link.
- Click on the “>>” button to add a proxy to the pre-saved list.
- You can see the list and that I already pre-saved one proxy for the example “anyIP - Thailand”.
- Once you’ve added all your proxies one by one, you can click “Save proxies” to save them all.
You will now see the two proxies on your proxy management dashboard
Create bulk proxies
Imagine managing 50 different proxies and the pain of having to save them one by one! Luckily, Incognito has the option of bulk creation! While the approach is different from AdsPower or Dolphin Anty. Trust me, this feature is very handy and will save you time!
- Click on “Create Bulk” to open the bulk creation form.
- Click on “Standard proxy format.”
- Select the proxy type you want to add. You can choose between HTTP, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5.
- Copy/paste all the proxies you want to add.
- Click “Check” to review all your proxies.
- Confirm that the data are correct.
- Then click on “Import” to save all the proxies.
You can now see four more proxies on your proxy management dashboard.
Edit a proxy
Incogniton uses a basic UI to make it easy for the user to manage their profile. Editing a proxy is a very simple process.
- Click the “triple dot” button next to the proxy you want to edit.
- Click on “Edit proxy” to open the update form.
‍
Delete a proxy
You can delete a proxy using the “triple dot” button on each proxy line. But, you can also remove many proxies at once like this:
- Select one or multiple proxies;
- Click on “Action;”
- then “Delete proxies;”
- Tick the checkbox if you want to remove the proxies from browser profiles too.
- Click on “Continue” to confirm.
‍
How do I recheck my proxy?
If you take a day off and need to check your proxy when you return, easy peasy. Incogniton can do it for you.
- Click on the “triple dot” button to open a contextual menu.
- Click on “Proxy”.
- Then click on “Recheck proxy” to force a proxy check.

How to verify your online fingerprint
One of the best reasons to use an anti-detect browser is the ability to use a random fingerprint setting. But how can you be certain that your fingerprint is trustworthy?
Head to iphey.com. This website will check each parameter of your fingerprint. It will display an error when it finds a problem.
- Our browser looks as real as a “normal” browser.
- Thanks to the proxy provided by anyIP.io, our location and IP address are legit.
- Both our hardware and software don’t look suspicious.
You can now navigate without risking your data to leak.
