Help & FAQ

Connection, importing, downloads, refunds… most issues can be solved here in a few steps.

Can't connect / spinning / timing out? Most cases fix themselves:

  1. Refresh / update the subscription first — nodes update live, usually enough.
  2. Switch nodes — try Japan / Singapore / US.
  3. Still stuck? Re-login, or screenshot and contact support.

Connection & Nodes

Can't connect / spinning / nodes all time out?

Nodes and lines update in real time — most cases you can fix it yourself. In order:

  • ① Refresh nodes (most important): tap Refresh / Update subscription to pull the latest lines. Refresh before connecting.
  • ② Switch nodes: they run through different datacenters — try Japan / Singapore / Hong Kong / US.
  • ③ Try a relay node: when direct lines are congested, relay nodes are often more stable.
  • ④ Log out and back in: fixes occasional stale-login issues.
  • ⑤ Still stuck? Screenshot it, tell us your city, and we'll check the route with upstream.
Download & guide
Still broken after a while — could my app be outdated?

Many issues come from an outdated app. Always download / update to the latest client from the official site — old versions may fail to connect or sync nodes.

I want US / a specific region but those nodes barely work?

Refresh first, then try several nodes in that region. At peak times some routes (especially to the US) get congested — Japan / Singapore are usually more stable meanwhile, and relay nodes can help.

Still not working? Screenshot it and tell us your city — we'll check with upstream.

Connects but slow / laggy?
  • Refresh, then pick a closer node (Japan / Singapore are usually faster for China).
  • Some nodes get crowded at peak hours — compare a few, or try a relay node.
  • Try switching between rule-based and global proxy modes.

Update your subscription often to keep nodes at peak availability.

Login & Account

Can't log in / wrong email or password?
  • Log in with the email + password you used when ordering; mind case and stray spaces.
  • Make sure you're on the latest official client — old versions can fail to log in.
  • Forgot it? Use "Forgot password" to reset.
  • Log out and back in once inside the app.
Not receiving the sign-up / email verification code?
  • Check your Spam / Promotions folder first — codes often land there.
  • Wait 1–2 minutes; don't spam the send button — it can rate-limit you.
  • QQ / 163 mail sometimes delays or blocks it — try Gmail instead.
  • Still nothing? Contact support and we'll help.
How many devices per account? Will it get banned?

Normal personal use across your own devices is fine. Don't mass-share the account or log in on many devices in a short time — it triggers risk control and can flag the account.

Download & Install

Which client do I download on each platform?
  • iPhone / iPad: OrbitX (search "OrbitX" in the App Store) or Shadowrocket.
  • macOS / Windows / Android: OneVPN, downloaded directly from the site.

We recommend the official client, kept up to date. The subscription link also works in other Clash-compatible clients, but we can't support third-party client settings.

OrbitX isn't in my (China) App Store — what now?

OrbitX needs a non-China (e.g. US) Apple ID to download. Our own shared Apple ID is no longer offered. We recommend the free shared accounts at AppleID Share, https://shareid.tools12345.com/ (multiple regions, filter for working accounts), or switch your App Store region yourself (free). Otherwise, on iOS you can also use Shadowrocket with the subscription link.

Any Apple ID you use to download (region-switched or shared) should be used ONLY inside the App Store. NEVER sign it into iCloud / Settings / two-factor — your device could get locked, at your own risk. Log out immediately after downloading.
OneVPN won't start / work on Windows?
  • Right-click the OneVPN tray icon → Quit to fully close it.
  • Open %AppData% (Roaming) and delete the OneVPN and com.follow folders.
  • Reopen OneVPN and log in with email + password to recover.
  • If blocked on first run, right-click → Run as administrator.

Subscription & Import

How do I use / import my subscription link?

Copy your main subscription link from the dashboard, then import it into your client:

  • OrbitX (iOS): use "One-click import to Orbit X" in the dashboard — nodes, rules and expiry come along.
  • Shadowrocket (iOS): copy the link, add a subscription in Shadowrocket and paste it.
  • OneVPN (macOS / Windows / Android): logs in and syncs nodes automatically — no manual import.
  • Other clients (Clash Verge, Stash, FlClash, Clash Meta, etc.): the link works in any client — just add it as a subscription.

The official clients (OrbitX / OneVPN) are recommended for the best compatibility and stability. Third-party clients work, but we can't support their settings.

After importing, update the subscription regularly — nodes change in real time.

Why update the subscription often?

Lines and nodes are maintained live — bad ones drop, fresh ones come in. Updating (or refreshing in-app) gives you the currently best nodes, and it's the first thing to try when something breaks.

Plans & Payment

What plans are there and how much?
  • Trial: cheap short-term trial, one per account.
  • Monthly / quarterly / yearly: longer = cheaper, quarterly is as low as ¥9/month.

Not sure? Start with a short plan; if you're unhappy you can follow the refund flow.

Payment failed / paid but not credited?
  • Retry with the other method (Alipay / WeChat).
  • Charged but not activated: send the payment success screenshot to support and we'll verify and activate manually.
How do I renew? Will I lose my nodes?

Pick a renewal plan in the dashboard and pay — renewing doesn't affect your imported subscription, nodes keep working. Renew before expiry to avoid interruption.

Refund

How do I request a refund?

It's simple — submit it right on the site:

  • Go to "Refund", pick the order.
  • Choose the payment method and a reason.
  • Upload the Alipay / WeChat payment success screenshot (required, JPG/PNG ≤5MB) and submit.
After submitting you MUST contact support (send us the refund-ticket screenshot) to verify — it won't be processed automatically. Once verified, refunds usually arrive within a week.

What's the refund policy?
After submitting a refund request you MUST contact support to verify and process it — requests are not handled automatically.
  • Submit as early as possible — the sooner, the higher the approval rate.
  • For product issues, contact support first — most are fixed on the spot.
