Release notes
What's new in Reroute.
Every 1.x update is free and arrives through the app's built-in updater.
Version 1.0 October 2026
The first release.
- Send the Mac apps you choose through a SOCKS5, HTTP or HTTPS proxy, with an optional login. Everything else stays on your normal connection.
- A rule per app: a proxy, Direct or Blocked. Match all apps by a developer, so helper processes follow, or only one app.
- Test any proxy to see the IP address and country it presents, using Cloudflare's public connection-check page.
- No quiet fallback: if the proxy is down, or the trial or licence lapses, routed apps are blocked rather than sent direct.
- Routed apps' UDP is refused by default, so QUIC falls back to TCP through the proxy. Allow UDP direct per app when you need it.
- Activity view of every connection Reroute handles, filterable by app or destination.
- Menu bar icon to check and switch routing. Routing starts on its own after a restart.
- Leaves Tailscale, your local network and plain DNS alone, and runs beside VPN apps.
- Proxy passwords kept in the Keychain and a root-only file that only the system extension reads.
- 7-day free trial with every feature. One licence covers up to 3 Macs.
- For macOS 15 Sequoia or later, on Apple silicon and Intel. Signed and notarised, with built-in updates.
