WARP client for macOS Beta release with Proxy mode enhancements

A new Beta release for the macOS WARP client is now available on the beta releases downloads page.

This release contains minor fixes and improvements including enhancements to Proxy mode for even faster resolution. The MASQUE protocol is now the only protocol that can use Proxy mode. If you previously configured a device profile to use Proxy mode with Wireguard, you will need to select a new WARP mode or all devices matching the profile will lose connectivity.

Changes and improvements

• Enhancements to Proxy mode for even faster resolution. The MASQUE protocol is now the only protocol that can use Proxy mode. If you previously configured a device profile to use Proxy mode with Wireguard, you will need to select a new WARP mode or all devices matching the profile will lose connectivity.
• Fixed a bug preventing the warp-diag captive-portal command from running successfully due to the client not parsing SSID on macOS.
• Improvements to maintain Global WARP Override settings when switching between organization configurations.
• The MASQUE protocol is now the default protocol for all new WARP device profiles.
• Improvement to limit idle connections in DoH mode to avoid unnecessary resource usage that can lead to DoH requests not resolving.

Known issues

• macOS Sequoia: Due to changes Apple introduced in macOS 15.0.x, the WARP client may not behave as expected. Cloudflare recommends the use of macOS 15.4 or later.
• Devices using WARP client 2025.4.929.0 and up may experience Local Domain Fallback failures if a fallback server has not been configured. To configure a fallback server, refer to Route traffic to fallback server.
