Terms of Use

1. Scope and nature of the content

This website provides information on obtaining Shadowrocket, configuration instructions, feature explanations, and troubleshooting resources. The guide is intended to help you understand the software; it does not guarantee results for any particular network environment or use case. The interface and features may vary depending on the client and operating system in use.

You are responsible for deciding whether an operation is suitable for your device and circumstances. Obtain any required permission before using managed devices, managed networks, or someone else’s materials. Examples in this guide do not override device management requirements.

2. Software access and service boundaries

The iPhone and iPad version costs $2.99 as a one-time App Store purchase. The Mac, Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. Get the iPhone or iPad version from the App Store product page. Check that page for system requirements; the price shown on your local storefront applies.

Installers for other platforms are available only at /dl/shadowrocket/ on this website. The Mac version is available for Apple Silicon and Intel; see the download page for access instructions and guidance on allowing the app to run. Store payments, refunds, and purchase restoration are handled under the applicable store policies.

A one-time app purchase does not include a network service plan. This website does not provide, sell, or recommend nodes or subscription services. Connection setup assumes you already have your own subscription or server details. You are responsible for confirming the permissions, term, and fees associated with those services.

3. Lawful use and user responsibilities

You must comply with the laws and regulations that apply where you are and to your use of the software. Do not use the software or website materials for unlawful purposes, infringe anyone’s privacy or intellectual property rights, interfere with network systems, or access or collect data without authorization.

Keep subscription links, server credentials, and configuration backups secure, and ensure that the information you enter is lawful and accurate. Before sharing logs or requesting troubleshooting help, remove personal identifiers and sensitive connection details. Save any information you need before changing rules, deleting configurations, or moving to another device.

4. Intellectual property and content reuse

The Shadowrocket trademark, app, and related software rights belong to its developer, Shadow Launch Technology Limited. Obtaining or purchasing the software grants only the right to use it within the applicable license terms; it does not transfer ownership of the trademark, software, or other intellectual property.

Original text, layout, and reference materials on this website are protected by applicable law. When quoting them, credit the source and preserve the original meaning. Do not remove rights notices or misrepresent the source. Displaying official icons and interface images does not grant permission to reproduce, modify, or distribute them separately.

5. Provided “as is” and limitation of liability

The software and materials on this website are provided “as is.” System permissions, network conditions, server status, and user configurations may affect results. This website does not guarantee continuous access, successful connections, or suitability for a particular purpose, and makes no promise about the availability of services you already use.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, this website is not liable for service interruptions, data loss, or indirect losses arising from using or being unable to use the software or following the instructions. You are responsible for assessing risks and maintaining backups. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where prohibited by law or diminishes consumer rights provided by law.

6. Changes to these terms and support

These terms may be revised to reflect legal requirements, feature changes, or content maintenance. The updated text and last-updated month will be posted on this page. Significant changes will be noted on the website; the notice will specify when they take effect. Matters that legally require separate consent will follow the applicable process.

For help with setup, see the FAQ or guide, and check the current interface and system prompts. If any provision of these terms cannot legally apply, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
