qBittorrent Remote

📌 Core Features

Remote Control: Full start, stop, add, and remove controls for torrents via a compact mobile UI that mirrors the desktop client. Connect over local network or configured remote endpoints for instant command execution. 📱

Queue Management: Fine-grained queue and priority adjustments let users reorder and prioritize downloads on the fly. Scheduling options and automatic recheck keep the queue healthy. ⚙️

Search & Add: Integrated torrent adding via URL or file upload with optional search integration for popular indexers. Quick add workflows reduce steps from link to download. 🔍

Connection Options: Supports HTTP, HTTPS, and custom port configurations with saved profiles for multiple qBittorrent hosts. Manual authentication and token storage simplify repeated connections. 🔒

Notifications & Logs: Real-time notifications for completed downloads and configurable alert thresholds for errors or seeding limits. Activity logs provide a clear history for troubleshooting. 🔔

👍🏼 Pros

Fast Interface: Lightweight app design delivers buttery navigation and quick response times even on older phones. Actions propagate to the client with minimal delay. 🚀

Power User Tools: Advanced options like labeling, bandwidth limits, and RSS support give full control similar to the desktop client. Helpful for heavy download workflows. 🔧

Multiple Host Support: Save and switch between several qBittorrent instances without re-entering credentials. Ideal for managing home servers and remote seedboxes. ✅

Local-First Privacy: Primary operation uses direct connections to the qBittorrent WebUI so data stays on the user's network when configured correctly. No mandatory cloud relay for basic use. 🌐

Low Resource Use: Minimal battery and memory footprint compared with full torrent clients on mobile. Great for always-on remote access. 💾

👎🏼 Cons

Security Requires Setup: Secure connections depend on enabling HTTPS on the qBittorrent WebUI and proper port forwarding or VPN for remote access. Out-of-the-box connections may be HTTP-only and less secure. ⚠️

Limited Cloud Relay: No built-in free cloud relay for devices behind restrictive NAT without a subscription or third-party VPN. This can complicate access from mobile networks. 🔑

Occasional Compatibility Issues: Interface differences between qBittorrent versions can cause minor feature gaps until the app is updated. Compatibility fixes are regular but may lag. 📶

Advanced Features Paid: Some convenience features like cloud sync, ad removal, or enhanced stats may require a purchase or subscription. Basic remote control remains functional without them. 💸

No Built-In Torrenting: The app is strictly a remote controller and does not download torrents on the mobile device itself, which could confuse users expecting a standalone client. 🧩
