There’s no free trial version available for SmartProxy directly. However, you can get one by purchasing a subscription to one of the local proxies.

The cheapest subscription option for this ADB and several proxies will cost you $8.5 a month. For anyone interested in more extensive and premium packages, there are various plans available, with prices ranging from $39 to $100.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Anonymity: SmartProxy offers a remarkably high level of online anonymity. It effectively mitigates the risk of getting banned by utilizing resident proxies and redirecting requests through real devices, ensuring a robust level of security and anonymity for its users.
  • Refund policy: Whatever tariff plan you end up choosing, you have the right to request a full refund within the first 2 weeks.

Cons:

  • Complicated interface: SmartProxy offers some features that might take people a while to figure out, especially newbies that aren’t well-versed yet in dealing with proxies and other 3rd party services.
  • Limited features in the free version: The browser’s free version has a pretty limited toolkit compared to the paid options. And it also works through a residential proxy.
