Add your own configuration
No provider code needed: add your own configuration by link, QR code or file, then use Hido as usual.
Turn on use without a code
- The first time you open the app: tap Use without a code.
- You are using a provider code: go to Settings → How you use Hido and choose to switch to use without a code.
In this mode, the Account tab becomes the Configs tab, where you manage the configurations you have added.
Add by link
- Open the Configs tab and tap Add configuration.
- Choose Link and paste your subscription link (it starts with
https://). - Tap Add. Hido downloads the configuration and shows the server list.
Add by QR code
- On phones and tablets: choose Scan a QR code and fit the code inside the frame. Tap Choose photo if the QR code is in a picture on your device.
- On computers: choose Scan a QR code, then pick an image file that contains the QR code.
The first time you scan, Hido asks for camera permission. If you declined, turn camera permission back on for Hido in your device’s Settings.
Add from a file
Choose Choose a file and open a .yaml configuration file (Clash format) on your device.
Formats Hido can read
| Type | Example |
|---|---|
| Subscription link | An https:// link that returns a Clash YAML configuration or a list of nodes |
| Configuration file | A .yaml file in Clash format |

Manage configurations
Each configuration is a card in the Configs tab. The card labeled Active is the current configuration; tap another card to switch.
