Any updates?

No, sorry 😞

I've implemented a proxy in a couple desktop apps, so I'm aware of how it works (more or less) but on Android I have no idea if that's even possible. I think you can configure a proxy on the system settings (for all apps probably) but that's all I'm aware of. Maybe there are apps that can let you configure proxies per-app externally?

If someone has some idea I'm all ears, otherwise I'm afraid there are other features I would like to implement first (the prs are open though!)

Orbot allows this I think, it can take the VPN slot or work via ports. RethinkDNS can also work, it takes the VPN slot, but can be configured to use different proxies: orbot and wireguard (and socks5 or https connect but these do not allow per app I think), although only one proxy type at a time. Wireguard can have multiple connections to different wireguard peers/interfaces (with the downside of not being able to use the DNS of any). Don't know if this guide has per-app config, but worth checking out, as well as the outdated version of it, as in that one the app for the socks proxy is different.
