# Use Proxies with Telegram: macOS

## This guide explains how to set up a Froxy proxy in Telegram on macOS. You'll learn where to find the proxy settings, how to enter connection information, and how to troubleshoot common connection issues.

**Telegram** is one of the most popular messaging platforms for communities and business contacts. In certain situations, connection quality or service access may be affected by network conditions or regional restrictions. Using a proxy can improve connection stability and make Telegram more user-friendly.

**Froxy** proxies can be configured directly in Telegram using the built-in proxy settings. To connect, you need to specify the **server** and **port**. Depending on the selected authorization type, you will also need to enter a **username** and **password** or first add the device's IP address to the IP **Whitelist** in the Froxy control panel.

### How to Set Up a Froxy Proxy in Telegram on macOS

To **set up a Froxy proxy in Telegram**, follow these steps:

1. Open Telegram on your macOS device.
2. Go to **Settings → Data and Storage → Use Proxy**.

3.  Click **Add proxy**.

4. From the proposed protocols, select SOCKS5 - a universal protocol that is supported by many applications. In this setup, only Telegram traffic passes through it.
5. Specify proxy details from the [Froxy control panel](https://froxy.com/en/subscriptions): 
     - **Server/Host**: Your proxy server address.
     - **Port**: connection port.
     - **Login** and **password**: specify when using authorization using credentials;
     - When using **IP authorization**, leave **the login and password fields empty**, after adding the **device’s IP address** to the **Whitelist**.  
       ![3](https://help.froxy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/help%20froxy/05.integrations/04.social-media-tools/05.%20use-proxies-with-telegram-macos/en-use-proxies-with-telegram-macos/3.png?width=670&height=436&name=3.png)

After saving, Telegram will start using the configured proxy connection.

### Troubleshooting

If Telegram cannot connect through the proxy:

- Make sure the host, port, username, and password are entered correctly.
- Make sure the proxy usage plan is active in your Froxy control panel.
- Try reconnecting or restarting the Telegram app. If the problem persists, please contact Froxy support for assistance.
