Bamboo Dragonfly for iPhone

Overview

Bamboo Dragonfly is a free network-proxy app built to help Chinese-speaking users access the wider internet securely. It relies on open-source, encrypted tunneling technology to protect browsing activity and reduce exposure of personal data. The interface is designed to be simple so users can browse global websites without dealing with technical networking details.

Notable advantages

• Compatible with Apple devices, including iPhone and Apple TV, and can automatically keep subscription data synchronized via iCloud.
• Visual node selection through an integrated map that makes choosing routing points more intuitive.
• Support for multiple subscription profiles so users can group and pick nodes by proximity or preference.
• Minimal setup required — most users can get connected in three straightforward steps.

Subscription and node management

The app lets you add several subscription feeds and switch between them easily. Nodes can be labeled or sorted by distance to help you pick faster routes, and the built-in organization tools make it simple to maintain multiple configurations.

Supported devices and sync

Bamboo Dragonfly runs on iOS and tvOS, allowing seamless use across iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. When enabled, iCloud keeps subscription and node settings synchronized across your devices so you don’t have to reconfigure each one manually.
