It powers performance-sensitive routing and advanced tools. MintFlow 2.0 moves active packet processing to this foundation. Building and tuning core networking infrastructure takes sustained work; we are investing in it to improve performance, stability, and maintainability over time. FREE AND PRO Free includes WireGuard, HTTP and SOCKS5 proxies, Simple Mode, App Routing, DoH/DoT, DNS Log, Flow Capture, HTTP inspection, Capture All, and a practical allowance for domain sets and HTTP rewrite rules.

You must configure your own server or a compatible third-party service. 2. HTTPS inspection requires installing and trusting the MintFlow CA certificate. Certificate pinning and some protocols may prevent capture. 3. WireGuard® is a registered trademark of Jason A. Donenfeld.
