MistRoute is a native iOS traffic inspector and rule-based router, powered by the open-source mihomo (Clash.Meta) core. Most clients of this kind open onto a list of nodes. MistRoute opens onto your traffic: what your device is actually talking to, which rule matched it, and where it was sent. You change the routing once you can see it. MistRoute provides no servers, subscriptions, or network access of its own. You bring your own configuration and it runs locally on your device. TRAFFIC • A live connection stream as the main screen — not a node list • Group by host, by matched rule, or by outbound to see where bandwidth goes • Searchable request history that survives after connections close ROUTE EXPLANATION • Tap any connection to see the full decision chain: request → matched rule → policy groups → actual outbound • Answers "why did this site go the wrong way" without guesswork • Read straight from the core — no extra requests are made RULE PLAYGROUND • Enter a domain or IP and see which rule would match and which node it would use, evaluated against your live rule set • Generates no real traffic ROUTING • Every policy group and node, with per-node and per-group latency testing • Rule, Global and Direct outbound modes PROFILES • Add by subscription URL, file import, or QR code • Built-in YAML editor; switch profiles live, no restart MORE • Home Screen widget: tunnel status, current outbound, total usage • Core logs, VPN start-up diagnostics, GeoIP / GeoSite management • Custom hosts, latency test URL, external controller PRIVACY No data collection. No analytics, no tracking, no accounts, no telemetry. Your configuration, records and logs never leave your device and can be cleared at any time. REQUIREMENTS • iOS 15.0 or later • A mihomo/Clash-format configuration you already have access to

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MistRoute at none against MindAnchor's 3. MistRoute also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
