Description

Proxy Switcher is an extension that helps you easily switch proxies from toolbar popup UI. Simply open toolbar popup and click on the desired category. There are five categories available to choose from. Moreover, badge icon color changes according to the chosen category. Once the proxy is set, a notification popup shows you the current state. This addon supports PAC proxy as well. Moreover you can white-list any domain or website through toolbar popup UI. In order to white-list a domain, please add the desired domain to the bypass area in toolbar popup. For example, to white-list - https://www.example.com - please add - *example.com - to the filed. Please note that all the entries should be comma separated. Once you filled the bypass area, please mark the related checkbox as well (the checkbox next to the Bypass category). To set PAC proxy, please add a PAC URL or SCRIPT to the designated area (PATH input area). Please note that a PAC path should have a certain format. For example if your PAC file is located in - C:// - folder (on windows machine), please write - file:///C:/pac.data - in the PATH area. If you do not know how to write a PAC file, please read this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config) Wikipedia page. Once you made a correct PAC file, please add it to the PATH field. Note: To switch the popup interface theme to dark, please press the moon icon on the bottom toolbar. To report bugs, please fill the bug report form in the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/proxy-switcher.html).

Well the app does work, is ok, but is harrasing me with the notifications in windows! Please give option to stop notify!

Unfortunately in recent versions of chrome it is for some reason loosing the settings, so each time you would like to switch (for example from Direct to PAC) you have to write the configuration again, which in case of filling the URL to PAC script is pretty annoying.
