ClashX Download and Setup Guide

ClashX is a classic macOS client used in many older Clash tutorials. It is mainly suitable for users who need compatibility with historical macOS workflows.

Download options

After-download notes

  • macOS only; new users should also compare Clash Verge Rev, FlClash or Stash.
  • If macOS blocks the app, verify the source before changing security settings.
  • Back up old profiles; if subscriptions do not show, check the full URL first.

Quick start with ClashX

The workflow is similar across clients: get the client, copy a private subscription URL, import it as a remote profile, select a node or proxy group, then choose a suitable proxy mode.

Get the client

Use the download area above or the release page, then choose the installer for your system.

Install and open

Follow the operating system prompts. On macOS, Android or Windows, review security prompts before allowing the app.

Import subscription

Open Profiles, Subscriptions, Remote Config or the equivalent entry, paste the subscription URL and update the profile.

Select a node

After the profile updates, choose a node or proxy group based on latency, region and your current scenario.

Enable proxy

Enable system proxy, VPN or the connection switch, then test whether traffic follows the expected route.

Alternatives to ClashX

If ClashX does not fit your platform, maintenance expectations or interface habits, compare nearby clients by core, system support, subscription import and tutorial path.
