Disclaimer | Shadowrocket for Mac Official Site

This disclaimer explains the scope of the Shadowrocket website and official guide, installation considerations, and user responsibilities. Check your device requirements and the interface you see.

1. Site scope and purpose

This is the Shadowrocket website and official guide. It provides download instructions, steps for importing configurations you already have, rule explanations, and troubleshooting information. Shadowrocket is a closed-source commercial app. This documentation explains how to use the client; it does not guarantee performance in any particular network environment, access to remote servers, or connection results.

Before following any instructions, confirm that you own or are authorized to use the device, have permission to use the network, and comply with applicable local requirements. For work, school, or other managed devices, follow the organization’s device policies. This guide does not replace administrator approval or professional advice.

2. Documentation accuracy and interface changes

Tutorials reflect the interface available for verification when they were written. App updates, system permissions, device models, and layout changes may affect button locations, option names, or the order of steps. Interface terms such as Home, Config, and Global Routing remain in English. Use the settings available in your current client.

Example rules and configuration snippets explain syntax; they are not complete configurations for every device. Back up your existing Config before making changes, then save and verify them one at a time. If something differs, first consult the user guide and troubleshooting guide. Don’t apply multiple settings without checking them.

3. Where to get Shadowrocket and purchase details

The iPhone / iPad version is available on the App Store for a one-time purchase of $2.99 in the US store. The Mac (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. For iPhone / iPad, the actual price, transaction terms, and availability depend on the App Store product page. Check that page for system requirements.

Before purchasing, verify the developer name, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, the official app icon, and app ID 932747118. Installers for other platforms are available from this site at /dl/shadowrocket/. Choose the right operating system and architecture on the download page. App Store transactions, purchase restoration, and refunds are subject to Apple’s applicable policies.

4. Existing configurations and connection responsibilities

This site does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscriptions, or advise on choosing related services. Import instructions assume you already have your own subscription or server details. A one-time app purchase is not a network plan: getting the client does not include remote servers, network traffic, or subscription services.

Subscription validity, server reachability, and how remote services handle data depend on those services and actual network conditions. Verify where your configuration came from and that you’re authorized to use it. Keep links, passwords, and keys secure, and remove them before describing an issue or sharing screenshots. Connectivity Test results are for troubleshooting at the time of testing and do not guarantee ongoing connectivity.

5. Installation prompts and configuration changes

Desktop and Android installers are not code-signed, so your system may block them during installation or the first launch. Proceed according to the installation instructions on the download page only after confirming the file came from this site and matches your system and device architecture. Windows, macOS, and Android have different settings; don’t use instructions for one system on another device.

Read system warnings before allowing an installation. Get administrator approval first for managed devices. Don’t leave system protections disabled to complete installation. Keep a way to undo changes to permissions, network settings, or configuration files. If anything goes wrong, stop and consult the troubleshooting guide.

6. External links and limits of responsibility

The external product link on this site leads to Shadowrocket’s App Store product page. Once you leave this site, the relevant platform manages its page content, account handling, transactions, and data policies. We cannot control subsequent changes. Review the destination page’s terms and notices before visiting or making a purchase.

Responsibility for problems caused by incompatible configurations, remote service outages, or actions outside this guide’s scope should be assessed in light of the circumstances. Nothing in this disclaimer excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. To report an issue, use the user guide to review the steps, then consult the troubleshooting guide and note your device, operating system, point of failure, and any error messages. You don’t need to share your full subscription details or credentials.
