Vorexa — See Where Your Traffic Goes Your network should not feel like a black box. Vorexa is a native iOS proxy client powered by a customized Mihomo core. It brings subscriptions, proxy nodes, routing rules, traffic statistics, and active connections together in a clear experience designed for iPhone. Whether you are switching nodes, checking a routing decision, or monitoring traffic in real time, Vorexa keeps the information you need visible and easy to understand. SHADOWQUIC, NATIVE BY DESIGN Vorexa’s customized Mihomo core includes native support for ShadowQUIC, a modern QUIC-based proxy protocol. With a compatible server and configuration, ShadowQUIC can reduce reconnection overhead and efficiently carry both TCP and UDP traffic. ShadowQUIC nodes work seamlessly with Vorexa’s node selection, latency testing, smart routing, traffic dashboard, and active connection insights. Actual performance may vary depending on server configuration and network conditions. ROUTING THAT MAKES SENSE Choose the connection style that fits the moment: • Smart mode follows your routing rules • Global mode sends traffic through the selected proxy • Direct mode connects without using a proxy Review active routing rules, search by domain or target, and create custom rules for supported domain and IP matching types. SEE THE PATH, NOT JUST THE RESULT Vorexa shows more than a simple connected status. Active Connections lets you inspect destination hosts, IP addresses, matched rules, proxy chains, exit nodes, network types, transferred data, and process information when available. It gives you a readable answer to a simple question: where did this connection actually go? A LIVE VIEW OF YOUR NETWORK The home dashboard brings important network activity together: • Real-time upload and download speeds • Session and total traffic usage • Active connection count • Runtime memory information • Current proxy node and routing mode • Subscription usage and expiration details Clear traffic charts make changing network activity easy to understand without overwhelming the screen. YOUR NODES, ORGANIZED Browse nodes by proxy group, view protocol and latency information, run delay tests, and change the active node with a tap. Vorexa works with compatible configurations using ShadowQUIC, Shadowsocks, VMess, VLESS, Trojan, Hysteria2, TUIC, WireGuard, and other protocols supported by its Mihomo core. SUBSCRIPTIONS WITHOUT THE MESS Import configurations through subscription URLs and keep multiple profiles organized in one place. Refresh remote configurations and review traffic usage, limits, and expiration information when supplied by your provider. MORE CONTROL WHEN YOU NEED IT Vorexa provides practical options for advanced network setups, including IPv6 controls, optional DNS overrides, custom routing rules, searchable runtime rules, multiple latency testing methods, and detailed connection inspection. The controls are available when you need them and stay out of the way when you do not. DESIGNED FOR iOS Vorexa uses a fully native iOS interface with responsive navigation, system appearance support, and layouts designed specifically for iPhone. No embedded web dashboard. No desktop interface squeezed onto a smaller screen. JUST THE CLIENT Vorexa does not sell or provide proxy servers, subscription accounts, network access, or configuration services. You must supply your own compatible configuration or subscription from a provider you trust. Connection speed, availability, protocol support, traffic quotas, and service quality depend on your configuration, network environment, and third-party provider. Vorexa is intended for lawful network management and authorized use. Users are responsible for following applicable laws, regulations, and service terms in their region.
