Download
Get it only from the Apple App Store. Check the name, icon, developer, and app ID before you buy. This site does not provide install files, nodes, or subscriptions.
Shadowrocket
Developer Shadow Launch Technology Limited · App ID 932747118 · One-time purchase, no in-app subscription
Install steps
Do them in order. The icon is a dark blue background with a white rocket. Skip results named VPN, Pro, Plus, or other extra suffixes.
Open the App Store and search
On iPhone or iPad, open the App Store and search for Shadowrocket. You can also open the product link on this page to avoid same-name or look-alike results.
If search finds nothing, do not keep trying other names. A storefront that does not list the app is the usual cause. See “If you cannot find it” below.
Check the listing before you buy
On the product page, confirm these items, then tap Get or the price:
- The name is Shadowrocket, not a variant with extra suffixes.
- The icon is a dark blue background with a white rocket (see above on this page).
- The developer / seller is Shadow Launch Technology Limited.
- The app ID is 932747118. The same digits appear in the product page URL.
Buy and install
The app is a one-time purchase. The price is whatever your current store shows. There is no in-app subscription. Complete the Apple ID purchase with Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode, then the download starts.
Other devices signed in with the same Apple ID can install again from App Store Account → Purchased without paying twice. Whether Family Sharing applies follows Apple’s rules at the time.
Open the app
Launch it from the Home Screen after install. An empty Server list is normal: the app ships with no nodes. You import a subscription or add a server yourself.
The first time you turn the home switch on, the system asks to add a VPN configuration. You must tap Allow, or later connections will not actually start. The UI for this step is in the illustrated tutorial · Home.
If you cannot find it
If your region’s App Store does not list the app, that is usually a storefront limit, not a removal. You can:
- Try the “Open product page” link on this page first. If it opens, you can buy there.
- If the link also fails, you need an Apple ID from a region that lists the app. Sign out of the current App Store account, sign in with that ID, then buy.
- After purchase, sign in with the Apple ID that paid and use Purchased to install again. If you keep that ID separate from a daily media account, write down which one bought the app.
- Switching accounts does not remove an app already on the phone, but updates still require the purchase account.
Do not download an IPA, an enterprise-signed build, or a “searchable version” from a third-party store. That is a source change, not a region change.
How fees work
There can be two charges. Do not treat them as one:
- App Store price: you are buying the client, once. This site does not collect that payment. The store receipt is the record.
- Nodes / subscriptions: charged by your provider. Without a subscription or nodes, the installed app still cannot proxy. This site does not provide or resell those services.
App updates come through the App Store. A genuine install follows store updates. A non-store install gets no updates and cannot be checked for tampering.
Install requirements
The minimum system version, and whether Mac or Apple TV is listed, follow Information / Compatibility on the product page.
| App name | Shadowrocket |
|---|---|
| App ID | 932747118 |
| Developer | Shadow Launch Technology Limited |
| Distribution | Apple App Store only |
| License | One-time purchase. The same Apple ID can install again from Purchased. |
| Devices | Usually iPhone and iPad. If the product page lists Mac or Apple TV, use that page. There is no official Android client. |
| System | Network Extension is required. An older iOS / iPadOS may not install. |
| Permission | You must allow a VPN configuration. Screen Time, school, or company profiles may block this. |
| Configuration | The subscription URL, QR code, or server parameters come from your provider. This site does not provide them. |
Do not install from these sources
This site does not provide IPA files or other install packages. The sources below cannot be checked for tampering and cannot update through the App Store:
- Unsigned or “no-jailbreak” IPA files, and packages from cloud drives or Telegram groups.
- Third-party app stores, and “one-tap install” web pages.
- Files labeled free, cracked, deluxe, or “Shadowrocket for Android.”
- Copies that require an enterprise certificate, a configuration profile, or “Trust this developer” before they open.
Typical outcomes: the account or device gets an unknown profile, the app cannot update, or the software is not the same product.
After install
Download only installs the client. Connecting still takes three steps. Details are in the tutorial:
- Turn the home switch on, allow the system to add a VPN configuration, and confirm Shadowrocket in Settings → General → VPN & Device Management.
- Add nodes with the provider’s subscription (type Subscribe) or with manual parameters. Update once after import. The step is done when servers appear in the list.
- Select a node and turn the switch on. After the VPN icon appears in the status bar, verify with a site you normally use.
