Secure SOCKS5 Proxies for Apple Developer Accounts

Available only for the Pro membership.

Apple may temporarily block or restrict access to a developer account if it detects suspicious activity, such as frequent requests from different IP addresses.
If one account sends requests from different IP addresses, it may appear as an attempt to hack the account.
Moreover, if multiple accounts use the same IP address, Apple may link all developer accounts together by this IP address.
This is especially critical if the accounts belong to different legal entities or are separated into different accounts for further app sales.
In this case, if one account encounters issues, sanctions may affect others as well.

Using a proxy can reduce such risks, as API requests will always originate from a single stable IP address tied to a specific proxy server.

Who needs this?

  • Developers with multiple Apple Developer Accounts.
  • Agencies working with different clients.
  • Large companies with distributed teams.
  • Owners of separate legal entities or projects requiring distinct IPs.

Advantages of using a proxy server:

  • Security - protection from Apple blocks and restrictions.
  • Confidentiality - separation of accounts and prevention of linking between them.
  • One IP for all employees - when working with a distributed team.
  • Simultaneous work with multiple accounts - all API requests will not originate from the user’s IP but will use a separate IP address for each project, reducing the risk of blocks.

Proxy types

  • Mobile proxies: Disguised as regular iPhone/iPad users. The safest but most expensive option. Apple almost never blocks mobile IPs as they are dynamic.
  • Residential proxies: Look like regular user IPs and are less prone to blocking. Issued by internet providers, not data centers.
  • Data center proxies: The cheapest, often used for mass scraping. Apple identifies them as bot traffic and blocks them more often, increasing the risk of an IP ban.
