# Connecting an iOS client ## Goal This documentation has the goal of showing how a user can use the official iOS [Tailscale](https://tailscale.com) client with `headscale`. ## Installation Install the official Tailscale iOS client from the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/tailscale/id1470499037). Ensure that the installed version is at least 1.38.1, as that is the first release to support alternate control servers. ## Configuring the headscale URL !!! info "Apple devices" An endpoint with information on how to connect your Apple devices (currently macOS only) is available at `/apple` on your running instance. Ensure that the tailscale app is logged out before proceeding. After the first launch, Tailscale established its VPN profile with the address https://tailscale.com . At first - you need to go to Settings —> VPN —> Tailscale (click info icon) —> Delete VPN. Then go to Settings —> Tailscale (App settings) —> enter the address in the "Alternate Coordination Server URL" field (https://example.com). Next, launch Tailscale, It will prompt you to install the VPN profile. Allow the installation by entering the password. Connect. > **Note** > > If the app was previously logged into tailscale, toggle on the _Reset Keychain_ switch. Restart the app by closing it from the iOS app switcher, open the app and select the regular _Sign in_ option (non-SSO), and it should open up to the headscale authentication page. Enter your credentials and log in. Headscale should now be working on your iOS device.
