FAQ

What is a cloud phone?
A remote Android (or iOS) device hosted in the cloud, used to run native mobile apps with persistent device identity for multi-account workflows.
Cloud phone or anti-detect browser for TikTok?
Native TikTok app flows usually need cloud phone device signals. TikTok web and creator tools can run on anti-detect desktop profiles with proper proxy alignment.

Hybrid stack (common at scale)

  1. Cloud phone — native app account creation & warm-up
  2. Anti-detect browser — web dashboards, ads manager, scraping
  3. Sticky proxy — one geo per account across both layers where possible
  4. Observability — ban rate per device farm, not just per IP
