Your Phone and Features May Still Work
If your device isn't on the list, it doesn't mean it's incompatible with Proxied Agent App — it simply hasn't been widely used by our community yet. Likewise, if it isn't labeled "Digital Assistant" or "Root," it doesn't mean these features won't work; it just means our users don't typically use them on that model.
Not Recommended Phones
Based on user feedback, these models are best avoided. If you already own one, test it first; if buying new, pick a different phone.

Device Specifications & Optimization
Tips on RAM, Rooting, and Avoiding Power-Saving Issues
Pick the right specifications
Avoid phones with ARM Cortex-A53 CPUs, as they tend to offer limited performance. For smoother operation and better overall stability, choose devices with at least 2GB of RAM or more.
Stick to reliable brands
Choose ROOT-capable models from our list, such as Alcatel 1 5033d or Ulefone S10 Pro, and avoid Meizu while being cautious with Huawei, Honor, and some Xiaomi devices.
Adjust settings when needed
For Huawei, Honor, and some Xiaomi phones, turn off energy-saving modes and enable Auto-start/Auto-launch to keep Proxied Agent App and OpenVPN running smoothly.
Test before committing
If you already own a Xiaomi device or a model that isn't listed, install the Proxied Agent app first and verify that all features work correctly before relying on the device for regular use.
