Terms of Use
These terms explain your rights and responsibilities when visiting this site, consulting the official manual, or using the links provided to obtain the app. Before using the app, also review the license terms for your version.
1. Scope and purpose of this site
This is the official Shadowrocket website and manual. It provides links to obtain the app, setup instructions, and troubleshooting information. These terms apply to this site and its related features. App licenses and App Store transactions are governed by their own applicable terms. If terms differ, information on this site does not change the conditions of a store transaction.
Review the terms relevant to the features you use. If you do not accept these terms, you may stop using the relevant features of this site. Your statutory consumer rights are not affected if you do so.
2. Where to get Shadowrocket and pricing
The iPhone and iPad version is available from the App Store product page for a one-time purchase of $2.99. The Mac versions (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. The amount charged is determined by the storefront, and system requirements for iPhone and iPad are as listed on the App Store page.
Installers for other platforms are provided through the /dl/ path on this site. See the download page for download links and information about allowing installation on your system. A one-time app purchase does not include a connectivity subscription. This site does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscription services. To use connection features, you must already have your own subscription or server details.
3. Lawful use and user responsibilities
You must comply with the laws and regulations that apply where you are located and to your activities. Do not use Shadowrocket or materials from this site for unlawful purposes or to violate others’ privacy, intellectual property, or network rights. Make sure you are authorized to use any server, subscription, or configuration you import, and follow the rules of the relevant network.
Subscription URLs, authentication details, and configuration files may contain access credentials. Keep them secure. Back up your Config, rules, or DNS settings before making changes. Before submitting materials for support, remove passwords, subscription credentials, and personal information. Do not share sensitive information from a complete configuration file publicly.
4. Availability and liability
The site materials and app are provided as is. System permissions, network conditions, server maintenance, and user configurations may affect how they work. This site does not guarantee uninterrupted connections, specific access results, or compatibility with any device. Test results reflect conditions at the time of testing and do not guarantee future availability.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this site is not liable for data loss or indirect losses resulting from service interruptions, configuration errors, or use of related content. You are responsible for backing up important information. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, or affects statutory refund rights, remedies, or other consumer rights.
5. Intellectual property and use of content
Shadowrocket is closed-source commercial software. Its trademarks, app, official icon, and related rights belong to the developer, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, or the respective rights holders. Visiting this site or obtaining the app does not transfer any rights in the trademarks, software, or other intellectual property.
You may consult and save the portions of the manual needed to understand how to use the app. Any copying, adaptation, republication, or commercial use beyond what the law permits requires prior permission from the relevant rights holder. When quoting content, retain its source and context. Do not excerpt terms in a way that misrepresents access conditions or liability.
6. Changes to these terms and support
These terms may be updated to reflect feature changes, legal requirements, or revisions to the guidance. Updated text and the month of revision will be posted on this page. Significant changes affecting users’ rights or responsibilities will be communicated appropriately. The effective date and application of changes will follow applicable law; changes will not retroactively remove rights already acquired under the law.
