Exploring More Options
- For Android users focused on the V2Ray protocol, we strongly recommend trying v2rayNG. As one of the most popular V2Ray applications on the Android platform, v2rayNG has won widespread praise among users for its stability and efficiency.
- For iOS platform users, we suggest experiencing Sing-Box. Among many iOS applications, Sing-Box stands out among iPhone users for its free advantage and excellent performance.
How Do the Cores Differ Between 3.x and 4.x?
Historical 3.x versions offered a choice between Xray and sing-box. Version 4.x removed Xray support, so its users cannot follow the old Xray-switching instructions. Xray is a proxy core, not a subscription format.
Check whether your subscription uses protocols and transports supported by the specific client version. A subscription from a proxy provider does not by itself determine which core is appropriate, and 4.x has no Xray option.
The project is no longer maintained, so 4.0.1 should not be described as providing continually updated protocol support. Check its release notes for compatibility rather than applying older tutorials or unverified format-conversion advice.
