Shadowrocket Genuine App Store Download

Shadowrocket isn’t available on the mainland China App Store. The store shown in the App Store is determined primarily by the country or region of the Apple Account used for purchases, not the device’s display language. Changing your device language to English does not change the store region for your purchase account. If the store says the app isn’t available after you open the product page linked here, check your account details rather than choosing a similarly named app from search results.

Check the account used for Media & Purchases

On your device, open Settings, tap your Apple Account at the top, then select Media & Purchases. The account used for purchases may differ from the one used for other services on your devices, so check the account shown here. Open the account settings and select Country/Region to confirm the store region. You may need to verify your identity first; menu names and paths can vary by device.

1. Open Settings → Apple Account → Media & Purchases and check which account is being used for purchases.
2. Open the account settings, then select Country/Region to see the current region.
3. If you need to change the region, use the Country/Region settings here and review the requirements shown.
4. Return to the App Store product page to check availability, local pricing, and payment details.

Before changing your country or region, review Apple’s notices about account balance, active subscriptions, payment methods, and other account matters. Seeing the option does not mean you meet the requirements; eligibility depends on Apple’s account rules and your account status. This page explains where to find the settings but cannot guarantee the outcome of a region change. Don’t overlook unresolved account issues just to make a single purchase.

If the product page opens but the purchase button is unavailable, check two things separately: whether the app is offered in that store, and whether your account can complete the payment. Availability depends on the store; payment can also be affected by your account, payment method, or device restrictions. Read the specific message before taking action. This is more useful for diagnosing the issue than repeatedly tapping Buy.

On your iPhone, first confirm that the App Store is signed in to the Apple Account you want to use for the purchase, then open the product page linked here. Review the displayed price, compatibility, and app details, and complete any payment confirmation requested by the system. Refer to the App Store page for system requirements and check its current compatibility section; past references to an OS version do not guarantee compatibility with your device.

If you’ve bought Shadowrocket before, check your purchase history first. Purchases are tied to the Apple Account used at the time, so getting a new device does not automatically require another purchase. If the product page shows a price again, check whether the current purchase account matches the original one before proceeding. A sign-in for another device service does not prove that your purchase history has been restored.

Installing the app and authorizing a connection are separate steps

After installation, open the app and check Home before preparing to import your own subscriptions or server details. When you first start a connection, the system may ask to allow a VPN configuration to be added. This permission is needed to establish a system network connection. Confirm that the request comes from Shadowrocket, review the prompt, and complete the device’s verification steps. Allowing a configuration does not mean your server details are correct or that the connection has been verified.

If you’re not ready to add your own details, start by reviewing the interface and settings guide. After importing your information, check the server type, address, port, and authentication fields. Then select an appropriate Global Routing mode and verify the result using the connection log and actual access. Successful installation, an enabled connection switch, and working requests are different outcomes; check them separately when troubleshooting.

App updates are delivered through the App Store. Automatic updates depend on your App Store settings and conditions such as network access and available storage. Before reinstalling the app or troubleshooting an issue, save any configuration details you need. You can check the app’s update history on its App Store product page rather than relying on version information repeated elsewhere.

When you get a new device or reinstall the app, recover your purchase history first, then check your in-app data. Sign in with the Apple Account used for the original purchase, go to App Store → Account → Purchased, find Shadowrocket, and download it again. You usually won’t need to pay again. Menu labels may vary by system version; look for the app or purchase history in your account settings.

1. On the new device, make sure Media & Purchases is using the original purchase account.
2. Find Shadowrocket in your purchase history and verify the developer and app icon.
3. After reinstalling, open Home and check the server list and existing content in Config.
4. Import your own subscriptions, server details, and configuration files as needed, then complete connection authorization and verification.

If you can’t find the app in your purchase history, first check whether you’re signed in to a different purchase account. Then review your purchase records, hidden purchases, and current store availability. If the product page shows a price, don’t assume based on memory that your original payment has disappeared. Check which account made the purchase and find the record before following the App Store prompts to avoid unnecessary repeat steps.

Restoring the app does not restore all configuration data

Purchase history confirms your eligibility to use the app; subscriptions, individual server entries, rules, and Config files are in-app data. After restoring a backup to a new device, check each item rather than assuming everything is present because the app icon appears on the Home Screen. Before importing manually, review the existing list to avoid adding the same subscription twice and losing track of which set of entries is active.

Keep your own subscription URLs, server details, and required configuration files so you can set up the app again if you change devices. These details may contain access credentials, so store them securely. When troubleshooting or sharing screenshots, hide passwords, full subscription URLs, and other authentication details. An App Store purchase receipt is not server configuration, and a failed subscription update does not mean your app purchase is no longer valid.

Check the current App Store page and Family Sharing settings on your device to see whether Family Sharing is available and what account or device conditions apply. It is separate from redownloading a purchase with the same Apple Account, so don’t treat the two as the same feature. This page does not guarantee that a purchase can be shared directly between different accounts.
