QBitTorrent

Entertainment is becoming a blossoming business worldwide. There are multiplexes making loads of money year after year. Just when the pandemic drew their business to a shut, the Over The Top (OTT) platforms came into full force. Today, allowing yourself to enjoy either of these two services can be a costly affair. But, as they say, in the world of the Internet and ethical hacking, there aren’t too many impossible things.

Talking of free options, online movie streaming isn’t a bad one. However, there could be issues like fluctuation of the network, buffering, and cuts in between for no apparent reason. This is why a lot of the consumers still prefer downloading the mp3 or mp4 files and playing them in their entirety offline through a media player. That is where torrents come into the scene. However, to download torrents, you’ll need an external downloader. Here, we discuss one such extension called qbittorrent.

Qbittorrent portable is an alternative extension to popular ones like BitTorrent and Utorrent. It is exactly similar in usage. It helps users on various torrent sites to download the torrents. It will first check the availability of the selected torrent and seed peers. Once ready to download, it does the job efficiently. The speed to download is generally very good. In fact, it is much better than its twin BitTorrent. It can download up to 20 GBs inside one hour on a standard 32 Mbps data speed.

To download Qbittorrent is an easy task. All you need to do is search ‘Qbittorrent download’ on google. It will show you a range of results. The first one is often the one that says the official website. And, that is the one you need to click on. The website will straight away open up a page where an option to download is included.

The website quickly identifies the type of system you’re on- Qbittorrent Android, Qbittorrent Mac, or Windows, and then will suggest you the best download link. It will also identify which version of the software your system will support, whether it is a 16-bit or a 32-bit. The download option will send the downloaded .exe file into the system downloads or any other selected source if selected by the user. Installing that setup file will install the extension to your computer system.

To stand out as a challenging alternative to industry giants like BitTorrent and Utorrent, Qbittorrent portable will have to have some handy features. Without them, there is no chance that they’d outgrow the competition to have an identity in the industry.  Some of the handiest features of the Qbittorrent portable are discussed below.

Easy to use Interface

The first striking feature of Qbittorrent docker is that the interface is very similar to its rivals. The window contains some banner ads. One on the top center and the other on the left bottom. There are three tabs on the menu bar. They are Files, Options, and Help. The main body contains all the information that a user may need when they try to download a torrent. That especially is the hero section of the app interface. There are all sorts of information like peers, availability, download time, etc.

So far, the description of the interface must have sounded like any other downloader available out on the internet. But, there are a few striking differences. Firstly, there is a trending videos section where you can see user activity around the world. It sorts all sorts of videos based on how frequently they are downloaded.

Second, there are also two paid models called Pro and Speed. The Pro pack gives you an ad-free experience while the Speed pack boosts the speed even more than it does on Pro. If you can handle a few ads now and then, we recommend the speed pack. It does make the download process much, much faster.

Also, one major difference is the color scheme. While most such apps use a white background and green accents, Qbittorrent docker uses a dark grey background and powder blue accents.

Firstly, there is no mobile application for Qbittorrent GitHub. It is, however, very accessible on desktops across various platforms. The cross-platform nature of Qbittorrent is one of its Unique Selling Propositions (USP). There are applications that support Windows and Mac of course. But, there are also apps that will run on Qbittorrent Linux, FreeBSD, and OS/2.

The download and installation are smooth. But, you should have a stable internet connection. Afterward, the download process for torrents through the application is exceptional. The speed is good, and the output quality has almost always been up to expectations.

BitTorrent is doing a fabulous job of standing out as an alternative to Utorrent or BitTorrent as a torrent client for downloads. There is only one suggestion from our end to the team of developers at Qbittorrent portable. And, that is to work on mobile applications. Both Utorrent and Bittorrent have mobile applications and have a decent number of mobile users. This could be a profitable endeavor in the longer run. 

The second suggestion is to the users of Qbittorrent. Please at all times protect yourself with a VPN. Several countries do not see piracy in good light. Therefore, safeguarding yourself with a VPN at all times while downloading or searching for a torrent is a great idea. 

To sum it all up, Qbittorrent docker is doing a tremendous job. They are, for the major part, a premium copy of a service like Utorrent. However, they are standing out on their own terms. They use different colors and are much more appealing than neutrals due to their attractive color scheme and app design. At the pace at which downloads are happening for Qbittorrent. We can see them leading the industry of torrent clients very soon.

They started as an alternate but they have set themselves up as the priority. Especially for newer users who like a more premium appeal and value user-friendliness. Therefore, if you’re looking to replace your usual torrent client downloader software, Qbittorrent is the place to go.
