MIT App Inventor Browser
(The best proxy in my opinion)
This proxy uses MIT App Inventor (Unsurprisingly), which should be unblocked at most schools; however, a lot of schools might prohibit the installation of MIT AI2 Companion, which is essential for this proxy to work.
1. MIT AI2 Companion has to be available in the Google Play Store on your school computer.
2. Your school computer has to use Chrome OS.
3. Your school using GoGuardian is not required, but it's recommended.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
-Pages load fast |
-Sometimes laggy |
-Teachers can't see or close your screen (This is confirmed to work on GoGuardian) |
