While technically you can configure third party apps (like other browsers) to use the Tor network, any such configuration is likely to be unsafe. By default, Tor dos not protect any traffic that takes place outside of Tor Browser.

Use Tor Browser: Tor has two parts, the client relay (the bit that sets up a randomized path for your data) and the browser which uses that path to send and receive your data.

For Tor to really work, you’ll have to change some of your habits. Simply using Tor does not grant the users some sort of digital immunity, you still have to be careful. It is important to understand that Tor is responsible for only one aspect of anonymity: keeping the transmission of data anonymous. Pretty handy for confirming your anonymity. You can open the same link in a non-Tor browser to see that it gives you an error message.

If everything is going well, you’ll see a message confirming that Tor is working fine (along with your new apparent IP address).

As the default front page says, you can check your Tor network settings by going to. If you’ve used Firefox before, the interface will look nearly identical.
