DOWNLOAD
Pick the installer for your platform. macOS, Windows, Android, iOS, and Linux each have a set of clients to choose from, with Clash Plus as our top pick; each platform includes system requirements, and server or router users can jump straight to the core section for Mihomo. Download links are resolved to the current latest version automatically when the page loads, with the version number shown on each card.
Switch tabs below to see the client list for each platform. Not sure which one to pick? Read our client comparison first.
Four clients are available for macOS. Choose the build that matches your chip — Apple Silicon (M-series) or Intel; if you're not sure which chip your Mac has, check About This Mac from the Apple menu. If Gatekeeper blocks the app after installing, see the FAQ at the bottom of this page.
A Clash client available across all platforms, with a clean interface and out-of-the-box support for subscription import, rule-based routing, Fake-IP, and node latency tests. The macOS build is tuned for menu bar residency and login item startup, and shares the same workflow as the iOS and Android versions, so switching between devices has no learning curve.
A community-maintained desktop client built on Tauri with the mihomo core built in. Supports TUN mode, multi-profile management, and Merge/Script overrides. The macOS installer is a universal build, so either chip type can install the same file.
An open-source, multi-platform client built with Flutter, sharing the same interface across desktop and mobile. Clean and easy to pick up — a good fit for users moving over from a phone-based client. The macOS build is a universal dmg; import your subscription and rule-based routing works right away.
A classic macOS menu bar client running the Meta core, known for being lightweight and low on resource use. The project is no longer maintained; the archived build here is kept for existing users to transition away from. New users should pick one of the actively maintained clients above.
Archived build — no further feature updates or bug fixes.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS version | macOS 11 Big Sur or later; macOS 12+ recommended for ClashX Meta |
| Chip | Both Apple Silicon (M-series) and Intel supported — pick the matching button on the card |
| Disk space | Roughly 200 MB free |
| Permissions | A one-time system prompt approval is needed to enable system proxy or TUN mode |
Five clients are available for Windows, all x64. New users can start with Clash Plus or Clash Verge Rev; FlClash offers a portable, install-free build; Clash for Windows is no longer maintained and is kept only as an archive. If SmartScreen blocks installation, see the FAQ at the bottom of this page.
The Windows build matches the same interface and workflow as macOS and mobile. Subscription import, system proxy toggle, and node speed tests all fit on one screen, with rule-based and global modes switchable anytime — a solid first Clash client.
A fully-featured desktop client with TUN mode, startup on login, config overrides, and traffic stats. Built on Tauri and the system WebView2 runtime, so the installer stays small; if the runtime is missing, the installer will guide you through adding it.
A cross-platform open-source client with a clean, straightforward interface. Alongside the standard installer, a zip portable build is available — extract and run, no registry changes, good for a USB drive or a work PC where installing software isn't an option.
Another community client from the Verge lineage, with richer UI animation and theming, plus script overrides and multi-core management — a good fit for advanced users who enjoy tweaking their interface and configuration.
Once the go-to Windows client, the original project has been archived and no longer receives updates. The final build is kept here for existing users still transitioning off it; new users should pick one of the actively maintained clients above.
Archived build — no further feature updates or bug fixes.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS version | Windows 10 1809 or later, or Windows 11 |
| Architecture | x64 (all installers on this page are 64-bit) |
| Runtime | Clash Verge Rev and Clash Nyanpasu require WebView2; the installer offers to add it if missing |
| Permissions | Administrator rights are required to enable TUN mode |
Four clients are available for Android, installed directly as APKs. Most recent phones should use the arm64-v8a build; if you're unsure of your device's architecture, Clash Meta for Android offers a universal package. On first launch, the system will request VPN permission — allow it to establish the local proxy tunnel.
The Android build carries the same unified interface and workflow across platforms. Scan or paste your subscription link to import, with support for rule-based routing, node speed tests, and per-app routing — configured the exact same way as on desktop.
A native Android client maintained by the Meta team, connecting directly to the mihomo core. Supports TUN, config overrides, and per-app proxying, with a lightweight interface and low background footprint. If you're unsure of your device architecture, pick the universal build.
A multi-platform client sharing one interface with its desktop counterpart. The mobile experience is complete, with subscription management and node switching in the same spots as desktop — barely any relearning needed when using both.
An Android client compatible with the Clash config format, with an interaction style closer to Surge and interchangeable rule and policy group syntax — a good fit for users maintaining multiple config formats and switching between ecosystems.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS version | Android 8.0 (API 26) or later |
| Architecture | arm64-v8a for most phones; armeabi-v7a for older devices; x86_64 or universal for emulators |
| Permissions | VPN connection permission is required on first launch; disable battery restrictions in system settings for reliable background operation |
On iOS and iPadOS, install Clash Plus through the App Store. After tapping Get on the store page, open the app, import your subscription link, and allow the VPN configuration prompt — the same workflow as other platform versions.
The iOS build uses Network Extension for system-level proxying, with support for subscription import, rule-based routing, Fake-IP, and on-demand connection. Works on both iPhone and iPad, and keeps the same workflow as the desktop and Android versions. The developer's official site is clashplus.io, where you can find release notes and documentation.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS version | iOS / iPadOS 15.0 or later |
| Devices | Works on both iPhone and iPad |
| Install method | Installed directly from the App Store page; updates are distributed automatically by the store |
| Permissions | You must allow the VPN configuration prompt on first connection |
Two GUI clients are available for Linux desktop, both x86_64. Debian / Ubuntu-based distros should use the .deb package; Fedora / openSUSE-based distros should use the .rpm package. Enabling TUN mode after installation requires root privileges or granting the core the appropriate capability. For servers and headless environments, use the Mihomo core instead.
The most complete option for Linux desktop: both system proxy and TUN mode work, with config overrides, multi-profile switching, and traffic stats, plus good support for GNOME and KDE desktop environments.
The Linux build of the cross-platform client, with an interface identical to other platforms — a good fit for users who want a consistent workflow across multiple operating systems. Available as a Debian-based .deb package.
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Distribution | Debian 11+ / Ubuntu 20.04+ use .deb; Fedora 38+ and similar use .rpm |
| Architecture | x86_64 (for other architectures, use the Mihomo binary in the core section) |
| Desktop environment | Mainstream desktops such as GNOME / KDE; the system tray icon needs a matching extension |
| Permissions | Enabling TUN mode requires root privileges, or setting the cap_net_admin capability on the core binary |
Mihomo is the shared rule engine core behind Clash-family clients. This section offers the standalone command-line binary, aimed at servers, routers, and advanced users who want to build their own systemd service. Regular desktop and phone users should use the GUI clients above — the core is already bundled in and doesn't need a separate download.
The core is a command-line program with no graphical interface. After downloading, prepare your own config.yaml file and launch it from a terminal; see the Linux section of the usage documentation for architecture selection and deployment examples.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions specific to downloading and installing. For more usage and troubleshooting questions, see the FAQ page.
Click the Apple menu in the top-left corner and choose About This Mac. If the Chip field shows Apple M1/M2/M3/M4, pick the Apple Silicon build; if it shows an Intel processor, pick the Intel build. The macOS installers for Clash Verge Rev and FlClash are universal builds, so either chip type can install the same file.
This is Gatekeeper's default block for apps distributed outside the App Store. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the bottom, find the blocked app, and click Open Anyway. If it still won't launch, run xattr -cr /Applications/AppName.app in Terminal to strip the quarantine flag, then try opening it again.
SmartScreen shows a blue warning for newer installers with lower signing reputation. Click More Info → Run Anyway to continue. Some security software may also flag it by mistake; adding the install folder to your trusted list and retrying usually resolves this.
Desktop and mobile users only need the GUI client for their platform — the core is already bundled and works out of the box. The standalone Mihomo core is a command-line program aimed at servers, routers, and advanced users who want to write their own systemd service.
Yes. When the page loads, it automatically resolves each client's current latest version address, and the version number is shown on the card. If resolution fails due to network issues, the link falls back to the built-in direct link and still downloads normally.
Do three things in order: import the subscription link from your proxy provider, choose a rule-based or global proxy mode, then pick a node and verify the connection. See the full steps in the Getting Started guide, and check the FAQ page for issues like failed subscription updates.
