The engine that handles your traffic is public on GitHub, so anyone can read, audit and build it. Load a Clash-compatible configuration or subscription and connect in seconds. ChocLite routes your device traffic through the servers you configure, following the rules you define, and shows you exactly what's happening on the wire.

Verdict
