The only client you need on desktop — v2rayN has the fullest feature set and the most active community. Pick either the Desktop build or the classic WPF build; both share the same config and subscriptions.
Not sure which to pick? New users should go with the Desktop build — it has a more modern UI and gets updates sooner. The WPF build is only for those who prefer the classic interface.
v2rayN now supports macOS — pick the installer that matches your chip type.
Uses the same cross-platform client as macOS — pick the package that matches your distro and CPU architecture.
Install a .deb package by running sudo dpkg -i v2rayN_*.deb in the terminal, or a .rpm package with sudo rpm -i v2rayN_*.rpm. If it reports missing dependencies, Debian / Ubuntu users can run sudo apt --fix-broken install once to resolve them automatically. Once installed, launch it from your app menu or by typing v2rayN in a terminal.
Just pick one — v2rayNG and v2flyNG work similarly and you can switch between them anytime using the same subscription link.
Not sure which to pick? Almost all phones from the past few years use the arm64-v8a architecture, so that's the one to go for; the universal build supports more older devices but is a larger download. When installing an APK, your system may warn about “installing apps from unknown sources” — that's expected, just allow it to continue.
