[Guide] Basic PhoneGrid Workflow

The basic PhoneGrid workflow is:

1. Create a cloud phone
2. Configure or associate a proxy
3. Start the cloud phone
4. Install and use apps
5. Check usage and charges in Billing

Note: A cloud phone needs a proxy to access the network. If no proxy is configured, websites and apps inside the cloud phone may not be able to access the internet.

[FAQ] How should I start using PhoneGrid for the first time?

We recommend the following steps:

1. Log in to PhoneGrid
2. Create a cloud phone
3. Configure a proxy during cloud phone creation, or select a saved proxy
4. Start the cloud phone
5. Install the apps you need inside the cloud phone

If you need to prepare apps for multiple cloud phones, you can use Application Center later.

[FAQ] Do I need to configure a proxy when creating a cloud phone?

Yes, if you want the cloud phone to access the internet.

You can configure a proxy while creating the cloud phone, or add a proxy first in Proxy Management, then associate it when creating or editing the cloud phone.
