Disclaimer
This is the official Shadowrocket website and manual. This disclaimer explains the scope of the documentation, how purchase information should be verified, and the responsibilities involved in using the app. Before following a tutorial, changing settings, or visiting the App Store, consider your device’s current state and your needs. Nothing in this disclaimer limits rights granted by applicable law.
1. Manual Scope and Nature of the Information
This site covers how to verify the genuine Shadowrocket app, purchase and get it, import an existing subscription, configure rule-based routing, and use Settings. The content explains procedures and settings; it does not guarantee results for any particular network environment, service availability, or connection. Shadowrocket is a closed-source commercial app, primarily for iPhone and iPad. Check the App Store listing for device compatibility and system requirements.
Examples in this manual illustrate syntax and how operations relate to one another; they are not complete configurations for every device. Before using an example, check its matching conditions, actions, and final rules. Do not infer how all traffic will be routed from a single example.
2. Accuracy and Interface Changes
Tutorials reflect the app interface available when they were written. Interface terms such as Home, Config, and Global Routing are kept in English. App updates, system settings, and device layout differences may change where options appear, what they are called, or the steps involved. The documentation may not match every device or remain accurate indefinitely.
If the instructions differ from what you see, first check the current screen and configuration, then consult the relevant help. Do not assume similarly named options do the same thing, and avoid changing several settings at once to reproduce a tutorial. If something differs, compare it with the steps and troubleshooting guidance in the tutorial.
3. Existing Subscriptions and Service Boundaries
This site does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscription services, and is not involved in related transactions. Import instructions assume you already have your own subscription or server details. Verify service addresses, credentials, validity periods, and usage permissions with the original service provider.
A one-time purchase of the app is not a service plan. Buying Shadowrocket gives you the right to use the client; it does not include a server or subscription service. Interruptions, expiration, and connection performance for existing services depend on those services and network conditions. An app purchase record does not establish that a service is available. Do not share complete subscription links, passwords, or access credentials in feedback.
4. App Store Purchases and Pricing
The App Store is the only place to get Shadowrocket. Before purchasing, verify the official icon, developer name Shadow Launch Technology Limited, and app ID 932747118. For guidance on getting the genuine app, see the App Store purchase verification page.
The price, local currency, taxes, compatibility, eligibility for Universal Purchase, and refund terms are determined by the App Store listing and the transaction screen. Pricing information on this site is for reference only and is not an offer or promise to sell. To redownload a purchased app, check the original purchase account and purchase history to avoid mistaking an account difference for a missing purchase.
5. Settings and User Responsibilities
Before changing DNS, rules, On Demand, or a configuration file, consider keeping a restorable copy of the original settings. After making changes, verify connections and rule matches one at a time. If something goes wrong, undo the most recent change before continuing to troubleshoot. Before deleting a configuration or replacing its contents, make sure any information you need is backed up appropriately.
Use the client only as permitted by applicable law and relevant service terms, and verify that you are authorized to use any information you import. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this site is not responsible for connection interruptions or related losses caused by incorrect settings, exposed credentials, or failures of external services. This does not affect liability that cannot legally be excluded.
6. External Links and Revisions
External store links on this site lead to Shadowrocket’s App Store product page. The linked page, transaction processing, and account verification are managed by the relevant platform; review the terms shown there at the time. A link does not mean this site controls the external page or guarantees that it will remain accessible.
This disclaimer may be revised as the documentation’s scope or applicable rules change. The month shown on this page will be updated when revisions are made. For differences in how steps work and common questions, see the tutorial and troubleshooting guide. For issues involving purchase history, payment, or refunds, use the relevant process provided in the App Store.
