Cloud Android phone in South Africa
Android cloud phone in South Africa.
Rent an Android phone that lives in South Africa: it goes online from a residential South African IP, carries a SIM from Vodacom, MTN or Cell C, keeps Johannesburg time and the local language. Apps and websites see a real phone in South Africa, not a server somewhere else.
What a phone in South Africa gets.
Everything that tells an app where a phone is: the network it uses, the SIM inside it, the clock and the language. All four point at South Africa.
Residential South African IP
The phone goes online from South Africa through a residential exit. A kill-switch below Android keeps every app on that exit; nothing leaks past it.
SIM of a local operator
Vodacom, MTN or Cell C: operator name, IMSI, ICCID and a number in the national format. Change the country and the phone gets a new SIM to match.
Johannesburg time zone
Africa/Johannesburg, the local language and keyboard. Time, locale and GNSS fix are set from the exit, so nothing in the phone contradicts the IP.
Apps as from Play
The catalog installs apps the way Google Play does, including the ones popular in South Africa. Your own APKs through ADB or the API.

Questions about cloud phones in South Africa
Something else? Write to support and a person answers, usually within a working day.
Is the IP really in South Africa?
Yes. The phone goes online through a residential exit located in South Africa; websites and apps see a South African home connection, not a datacenter. You can also bring your own proxy.
Which operator will the SIM show?
One of Vodacom, MTN or Cell C, chosen to match the exit. The SIM has a local number, IMSI and ICCID; the operator name appears in the status bar like on a real phone.
Can I move the phone to another country later?
Yes, from the device page. The phone gets a new exit, a new SIM of that country and the matching time zone and language. Apps keep their data.
Where does the phone physically run?
On our ARM servers in the region closest to you, so the screen and ADB answer quickly. Where it runs and where it goes online are two separate settings.
