What it does
qBittorrent is an open-source BitTorrent client with per-file priorities, torrent creation, RSS rules and remote control through a web interface.
When adding a torrent, choose its files, priorities and save location and decide whether it should start immediately. qBittorrent can keep incomplete data in a separate folder, load torrents from watched folders and manage download/upload queues. A bandwidth schedule reserves transfer windows, while ratio limits can pause or remove a torrent job after its upload target is reached. The web interface provides remote control alongside the desktop client. It is an open-source project with no ads. Torrents, RSS feeds and search plugins supply outside sources; completion depends on the available peers and the settings of the installed version.
