SSH Tunnel Provides a Secure Internet Connection for Your Android Device

Monday, June 20th, 2011

SSH Tunnel is extremely simple to use. The entire app consists of one menu page, which itself is broken down into simple sections. You enter the server and port you want your device to connect with and the login information. Then you choose whether you want to use a SOCKS proxy or not, and finally which apps you want using the tunnel (or, if your phone is rooted, you can choose to make the tunnel system-wide). Once you do have SSH Tunnel set up with your preferences, you can save them as a named profile.
