Orbot is the official Android app for the Tor project. Orbot App (Free) Proxy Server App (Free) Installing and Configuring Orbot You will not need any cables, but you will need both devices to be on the same local network (WiFi works well). In this walkthrough we will be installing and configuring the Android apps to work with each other, directing all traffic targeted at a specific port through the Orbot app (and thus into the Tor network), and finally updating our Chrome OS proxy settings to use that connection over the local network. Proxy Server app from Google Play (see below).Tutorial: Using Tor on Chrome OS Requirements: There may be other flaws as well, so please exercise caution. onion sites are not accessible using this method. Note: This tutorial will quickly establish a Tor connection, but is not a full solution. Let’s take a look at what configuration is necessary to start using Tor today. For the purposes of clarity and ease of understanding, I’ve rewritten the tutorial with the blessing of the original author. While the original tutorial can be found here, it assumes some advanced technical knowledge. One such workaround was noted in a tutorial shared by Jose Mendoza that requires nothing more than an Android smartphone and two specific apps. Luckily, and perhaps unsurprisingly, users of Tor are often eager to create workarounds that circumvent silly things like whether a feature exists or not. Unfortunately, even if the Chrome Team opts to start working on Tor integration as a mainline feature, there will still be a period of time before support hits a stable build. A member of the Tor project also chimed in to vocalise that they would be more than happy to help where possible – a fantastic step in the right direction. That ticket has recently been revived by a couple of comments from project members interested in exploring what needs to be done. “We’re willing to put in some of the effort too.”
