Disclaimer

This disclaimer explains the scope of the Shadowrocket manual and what to check when reading the documentation, purchasing the app, or using an existing configuration.

1. About This Site and Its Scope

Shadowrocket Genuine App Guide is the Shadowrocket website and official manual. This site is the official website. It provides guidance on verifying the genuine app, purchasing and restoring it through the App Store, getting started, importing an existing subscription, configuring rule-based routing, and troubleshooting. This disclaimer applies to the site’s tutorials, articles, examples, and related navigation content.

Shadowrocket is a paid, closed-source app available exclusively on Apple platforms, with guidance focused on iPhone and iPad. Compatibility with other Apple devices and system requirements are as listed on the App Store page. This documentation explains app operations and settings; it does not guarantee results for any particular network environment or service availability.

2. Accuracy and Interface Changes

Tutorials are based on the App Store listing and the app interface available for verification when they are written. App updates, device differences, and system settings may change menu locations, option names, and the order of steps. Documentation updates may also lag behind changes to the app. When following instructions, check the prompts and option descriptions shown on your device.

Rule snippets and example addresses in this documentation illustrate syntax, matching order, or how to enter information; they are not ready-to-use service configurations. Before editing Config, Global Routing, DNS, or On Demand, keep a copy of your existing configuration and make sure you know how to restore it. If the interface differs from the instructions, do not continue based only on screenshot positions.

We update the documentation based on our checks, but cannot guarantee that every section will always apply in full across all devices and environments. If anything is unclear, see Frequently Asked Questions and Tutorials, then confirm the prerequisites before proceeding.

3. Purchases, Pricing, and Restoring Purchases

The only way to get Shadowrocket is through the App Store product page. Before purchasing, verify the developer, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, the official app icon, and app ID 932747118. Our Getting the App guide can help you verify the listing, but does not replace the App Store purchase confirmation page.

The app is sold as a one-time purchase. Check the App Store listing for the current price, local currency, compatibility, purchase availability, and Family Sharing terms. Store region, account status, and payment conditions may affect whether the app is available or a transaction can be completed. This site makes no promises about transactions.

When switching devices or reinstalling the app, first check your purchase history using the original purchasing account. Follow the App Store’s current process to restore the app, request a refund, or resolve other purchase issues. Do not rely solely on the steps on this site to determine whether a transaction was completed or qualifies for a refund.

4. Existing Subscriptions and Configuration Responsibilities

A one-time client purchase ≠ a service subscription. Purchasing the app does not grant access to servers. This site does not provide, sell, or recommend proxy servers or subscriptions. Tutorials assume you already have your own subscription or server details and explain only how to import, select, and manage them.

You are responsible for checking the source, authorization, and validity of anything you import, and for understanding the applicable service terms. Subscription updates, server responses, network conditions, and configuration changes can all affect connection results. This site cannot guarantee an ongoing connection, a particular speed, or that any request will succeed.

Keep subscription URLs, account details, and configuration credentials secure. Before sharing information when troubleshooting, hide sensitive details and never post full links or configurations. You must comply with applicable laws and service rules when using the app and related services.

Links to the App Store on this site are provided to help you find the Shadowrocket product page. Content, transactions, and data handling after you follow a link are governed by the relevant page and its policies. This documentation does not replace the terms, privacy information, or notices provided on external pages.

Issues caused by interface changes, misuse of examples, user configurations, or the status of external services should be assessed based on their actual cause. This disclaimer does not exclude or limit any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, nor does it affect rights you may have under the law. For information about how this site handles data and its rules for use, see the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
