I have been using Tor browser on my computer and it's been working fine on WiFi. I decided to download the latest Tor browser for Android and connected it with a successful connection but when I want to browse, I get a "PROXY SERVER REFUSE CONNECTION" . I have uninstalled the app several times and installed again but I still get the same problem. I have searched online for solution but found non. I have seen some people ask this same question on other forum but get no replies. Please has anyone experience this before or know the solution? Thank you.

Can you confirm that this is the browser that you are using? torproject.org/download/#android– elmerjfuddCommented Jan 10, 2020 at 8:39

Yes. I was got mine from Android playstore. I've download the app from the web link you sent above and it worked for a while then lost proxy connection again.– nixiCommented Jan 11, 2020 at 0:05

This is a result of the Russian state censorship. We're - my project community and I - are working on the fix, and will publish it soon. All you need now is to find an unpublished bridge for Tor: the proxy-related error message is actually an error message from a plugable transport that indicates that it can't reach the bridge - the bridge is banned or filtered. Prefer obfs4 bridges for now

I found a fix that works for me. On my Galaxy S20, I went Settings > Connections > More connection settings > Private DNS. Mine was on OFF. Select AUTOMATIC and see if it establishes a connection. I do warn you though, Using in conjunction with a vpn (like proton, a generally fast vpn) I found it to be at leased twice as long load times, sometimes more.
