Quick answer
Which proxies work for app geo-testing in Asian cities?
Route your test browser or emulator through a residential IP in that city, set its time zone and language, and run your test cases. With Banyan Proxies, USERNAME-country-my-city-johor_bahru gives a Johor Bahru home IP at $1.88 for 1 GB (October 2026), and a sticky session keeps one IP for a whole test flow.
What should I test in each city?
| Check | Example |
|---|---|
| Delivery zone | Is the service available in Davao City, or only in Metro Manila? |
| Currency and tax | Prices in IDR with VAT for Surabaya; MYR for Kota Kinabalu |
| Language | Thai default in Chiang Mai, Vietnamese in Da Nang |
| Time zone | Opening hours in Perth (UTC+08:00) against Sydney (UTC+10:00 or +11:00) |
| Geo-redirects | Does an Auckland visitor land on the NZ store, not the Australian one? |
| Legal notices | Consent banners under each country's data protection law |
How do I set up a test browser?
Use a browser automation tool that accepts an authenticated proxy and lets you set time zone and locale. The docs include a Playwright example that opens Chromium with a Sydney IP, the Australia/Sydney time zone and the en-AU locale. Swap the city segment and locale for each market.
What about time zones inside one country?
Indonesia uses WIB (UTC+07:00) in Jakarta and WITA (UTC+08:00) in Denpasar and Makassar. Australia runs from AWST (UTC+08:00) in Perth to AEST (UTC+10:00) in Sydney, with daylight saving in some states only; Adelaide sits at UTC+09:30. Malaysia's Kota Kinabalu uses the Asia/Kuching zone, at the same UTC+08:00 as Kuala Lumpur. Test with the city's own zone.
What should I read next?
Copy the Playwright example from the docs, keep one IP per test flow with sticky sessions, and check time zones per city on the city index. Other jobs are on the use cases page.
What else do buyers ask about geo-testing?
Can I test a mobile app?
Yes, if the device or emulator can use an HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy. Apps that require a mobile carrier IP may need a dedicated 4G/5G port, sold by zone on the pricing page.
How many GB does a test cycle use?
It depends on the app. Measure one full cycle on the 1 GB plan; Prepaid residential and rotating-mobile traffic never expires: unused GB stay on your account until you use them.
Can each tester have separate credentials?
Yes: Sub-users with their own credentials and traffic cap, one per client or project.
