Clients, Cores & Subscriptions
Understand the three moving parts first: the client handles UI and system routing, the core handles rules, DNS and connections, and the subscription or YAML profile provides nodes and policy groups.
Rule-based routing
Use rules such as DOMAIN, IP-CIDR, GEOIP and MATCH to split traffic by scenario.
Proxy group switching
Select, url-test, fallback and similar groups help switch nodes manually or automatically based on latency and availability.
DNS and TUN workflows
Combine Clash DNS, Fake-IP, TUN or system proxy based on client support.

Download a client, prepare a subscription, import the profile, then choose a node and test the connection before changing advanced protocol settings.
Download a client
Open the download center and choose a client for your operating system.
Get a subscription

Find the Right FAQ by Symptom
Choose the current download, subscription, connection, speed, DNS, TUN or account symptom and jump to the most relevant troubleshooting path.
Source and Subscription Safety
Check project source, package name, system architecture and subscription-link privacy before installing a client or sharing configuration.
Check the Source First
Confirm that the project source, download entry, file name and tutorial page match. When you need compatibility with an existing profile, still verify source and package format first.
Confirm System Architecture
Windows users should check x64 or arm64, macOS users should check Intel or Apple Silicon, and Android users should check APK source and VPN permission.
Subscriptions Come from Providers
A client is not a node service. Subscription URL, plan, traffic and node quality are provided by the service vendor. Do not share private subscription links publicly.
Common First-Time Questions
Start with client choice, subscription import, empty nodes, iOS alternatives, Mihomo cores and safe download sources.
Which Clash client should I download?
For desktop, start with Clash Verge Rev or FlClash. Android users can compare FlClash and Clash Meta for Android. iOS users normally use Shadowrocket, Quantumult X or Stash.
Where do I get a subscription URL?
The subscription URL is provided by your proxy service provider. Treat it like a private credential.
How do I confirm nodes after import?
Check whether the URL was copied completely, the plan is active, and the client has updated the remote profile.
Why does the iOS page recommend other apps?
iOS has no official Clash client. The usual workflow is to use iOS apps that can import compatible subscription and rule profiles.
What is the difference between site downloads and GitHub or App Store?
Site downloads organize common package entries, while GitHub and App Store are upstream or platform sources. Verify package name, source and architecture before installing.
What is the relationship between Mihomo and Clash Meta?
Mihomo is the continuation name commonly used for the Clash Meta core. When choosing a client, review core type, platform support, package format and tutorial coverage together.
Is Clash affiliated with the original Clash project?
Clash provides download organization and setup tutorials. It is not affiliated with the original Clash project or any client development team.
