How to import the YHVPN subscription into Shadowrocket

If you're already using Shadowrocket on iPhone or iPad, there's no need to switch to YHVPN's own client — importing the subscription link keeps you in the interface you already know. Here's where to find the link and how to import it.

Step 1: Register and get your subscription link

Register a YHVPN account on the homepage — the free tier works fine. Once logged in, go to "Account → Subscription", which shows a QR code and a subscription link, hidden by default — click the reveal icon to see it, or just use the copy button.

Treat this link like a password — anyone with it can use it to connect through your account. If you suspect it's leaked, the same page has a "Rotate subscription link" button; the old link stops working immediately.

Step 2: Import it into Shadowrocket

Open Shadowrocket, tap "+" in the top right, choose "Types → Subscribe", and paste the link you copied (or use Shadowrocket's built-in scanner to scan the QR code on the account page). Save, then tap the refresh icon to pull the node list.

Step 3: Pick a node and connect

Once the list updates, choose a node with low latency and flip the main switch to connect. On the first connection, open a webpage to confirm it works before relying on it.

FAQ

Do I need to buy Shadowrocket separately? Shadowrocket is a third-party paid app on the App Store, downloaded under a non-China account. YHVPN only provides the subscription link — purchasing Shadowrocket itself is separate.

New device — does the link still work? Yes. The link is tied to your account, not the device. Import the same link into Shadowrocket on the new device; no need to generate a new one.

Can the free tier use a subscription link? Yes, free accounts get one too. For more data, check the pricing page for the paid tiers' pricing and durations.

No account yet? Register free, then come back for your subscription link.
