It is not true that IOS and others do not support authentication.
They do.
And in a case you want to use another authentication method you can use
such as Radius for WIFI and if not then Radius tokens which will
whitelist the originating IP.
It is not recommended in many environments but it's an option.

of mobile apps on ios devices and android which don't support traditional
proxy authentication. i found they are using squid for caching and proxying.
can squid alone achieve this? Thank you
