This is the official Shadowrocket website and manual, with app access guidance, configuration instructions, and troubleshooting documentation. These terms apply to visiting this site, reading its documentation, and using the download links provided here. Please review the terms before use. If you do not accept them, stop using the relevant features. Nothing in these terms affects rights that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
1. Services and App Access
Shadowrocket is a closed-source commercial app developed by Shadow Launch Technology Limited. The iPhone and iPad version is available on the App Store for a one-time payment of $2.99. The Mac (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. The actual price is shown on the local store page. Check the App Store listing for iPhone and iPad system requirements.
For iPhone and iPad, verify the developer, official icon, and app ID 932747118 on the App Store product page. Installers for other platforms are provided through the /dl/ path on this site. See the Get the App page for the common entry point. If your system blocks installation, read the installation guidance on that page and confirm the file’s source before proceeding.
2. Lawful Use and User Responsibilities
You must comply with the laws and regulations where you are located and in any region affected by your activities. Do not use Shadowrocket or materials on this site to engage in unlawful activity, infringe others’ rights, access systems without authorization, steal data, or disrupt network operations. Before proceeding, make sure the action is permitted by your device management policies, network access rules, and applicable service terms.
Configuration assumes you already have your own subscription or server details. Obtain subscriptions from your service provider. This site does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscription services. A one-time app purchase does not include a connection plan; app access fees do not cover external connections, servers, or network access services.
You are responsible for safeguarding subscription links, passwords, configuration files, and backups. Do not disclose access credentials in public feedback. Before importing a configuration, understand how its rules may affect traffic routing, DNS, and connection behavior. Keep a recoverable copy before changing important settings.
3. Availability and Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the app, documentation, and download guidance on this site are provided “as is.” We do not guarantee continuous availability, fitness for any particular purpose, or compatibility with every device or environment. System updates, network conditions, external servers, and user configurations can all affect connection results. Examples in the documentation do not guarantee any particular connection outcome.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this site is not liable for service interruptions, failed connections, overwritten configurations, data loss, or resulting indirect losses. You are responsible for backing up your data and checking the results after changing settings. These limits do not exclude liability for willful misconduct, gross negligence, or any other circumstances where liability cannot legally be excluded, and do not replace applicable consumer protection laws.
App Store payments, refunds, and restoration of purchases are governed by store policies and local law. The validity of external subscriptions and the delivery of those services are matters between you and the relevant provider under your agreement.
4. Intellectual Property and Use of Materials
The Shadowrocket name, trademarks, official icon, app, and related product rights belong to its developer or the relevant rights holders. Visiting this site or obtaining the app does not transfer any trademark, software, or other intellectual property rights.
Original explanatory text and editorial arrangements on this site are protected by law. You may consult, save, and reasonably quote them for personal study and configuration, provided you retain source attribution. Copying, distributing, or using them commercially beyond what the law permits requires prior permission from the relevant rights holder. Do not present modified documentation or app materials as official releases.
5. Changes to These Terms and Issue Resolution
We may revise these terms when product features, service scope, or legal requirements change. The complete revised text and updated month will be posted at the top of this page. Revisions will not retroactively reduce rights you have under applicable law. Any matters that legally require separate notice or consent will be handled accordingly.
If you run into a problem, start with the tutorials and node management manual. When checking an issue, note the steps you took and any error messages, and remove sensitive information. See the Privacy Policy for details on how personal information is handled. If any provision of these terms is found invalid, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
