Outline for AppleTV

There are two ways to set up VPN on Apple TV.
This guide is split into two parts:

  • ✅ Method 1 — if you have an iPhone nearby
  • 🛠 Method 2 — if you don’t have an iPhone

Method 1: With iPhone (recommended)

  1. Download the Shadowrocket app on both your iPhone and Apple TV

2. On your phone, open the Telegram bot and get the “Regular key” (starts with ss://)
When you switch back to Shadowrocket, it will ask permission to paste — tap Allow
A server will appear automatically

3. At the bottom of the app, go to the "Data" tab → tap "AppleTV"
Open the same tab on your Apple TV

4. On your phone, open the “Servers” tab and tap the server
Once the data is synced, Shadowrocket will show "Success" on your TV

5. Return to the home screen in the app and connect

⚠️ Note: The first connection might be slow or show an error.
Don’t worry — this is common. Just tap Connect again.
The server config is created quickly, but the app takes time to establish the tunnel.

Готово, VPN подключен и готов открывать для вас сайты и медиа, а вы - прекрасны 🫵🫦

✅ Done! VPN is active and ready to open websites and media for you — and yes, you look amazing 🫵🫦


🛠 Method 2: Without iPhone

This method is a bit more manual, but still works fine.

  1. On your Apple TV, search the App Store for Shadowrocket
    • Price: ₽249 one-time (not a subscription)

2. You’ll still need a secondary device (PC or phone) to get your config:

  • Copy your Outline key (starts with ssconf://) from the bot
  • Replace the beginning with https:// and open the link in your browser
  • You’ll see a JSON-style config like this (the actual values will be different):

3. On your Apple TV, open Shadowrocket and tap the ➕ icon (top right)

4. First, change the Type to Shadowsocks

5. Now fill in the following fields based on what you saw in the browser:

  • Address → value from "server"
  • Port → value from "server_port"
  • Password → value from "password"
  • Method → value from "method"

That’s all you need. Add the server and tap Connect

⚠️ Reminder: First connection may take time or show an error. Just try again — it usually works on the second attempt.

✅ Done! Your Apple TV is now VPN-connected and free to stream — and yes, you still look amazing 🫵🫦
