Remote torrent access for qBittorrent, Transmission, and Deluge

No port forwarding. No VPN. No firewall surgery.

Secure remote torrent access starts with a lightweight companion on your NAS, Docker host, Linux server, or always-on machine. Pair it with the Torrento Android app to control qBittorrent, Transmission, and Deluge from anywhere without exposing their Web UI to the public internet.

Setup

Up and running in minutes

Pair in Android, keep client credentials on the companion, then import those clients into Torrento for remote control from anywhere.

FAQ

Remote access FAQ for qBittorrent, Transmission, and Deluge

Answers about remote torrent access from Android, including companion placement, NAS and Docker installs, headless Linux setup, and how Connect avoids port forwarding.

How do I access qBittorrent remotely from Android without port forwarding?

Install the Torrento Connect companion on the same machine as qBittorrent, or on another always-on device on the same LAN, pair it from the Torrento Android app, add your qBittorrent Web UI credentials on the companion, then import that saved client into Torrento.

Does Torrento Connect also work with Transmission and Deluge?

Yes. The companion supports qBittorrent, Transmission, and Deluge. Add the same Web UI or RPC details you already use, test the connection on the companion, and import the client into Torrento Android for remote control.

Where should I install the Torrento Connect companion on a NAS, Docker host, or seedbox?

Install it as close as possible to the torrent client, ideally on the same machine. If the client runs elsewhere on the same network, another always-on device on that LAN also works. Common fits include NAS devices, Docker hosts, Linux servers, seedboxes, and home PCs.

Can I set up Torrento Connect on a headless Linux server over SSH?

Yes. Linux headless installs support the browser dashboard, but they also support an SSH-only flow with torrento-connect pair, torrento-connect client add, and torrento-connect client probe.

Do I need a VPN or reverse proxy to use Torrento Connect for remote torrent access?

No. Torrento Connect is built so you do not have to expose qBittorrent, Transmission, or Deluge directly to the public internet. After pairing, it chooses the best available path automatically, using local, secure direct, or secure relay connectivity as needed.

Is Torrento Connect separate from Remove Ads?

Yes. Remove Ads is a one-time purchase in the Android app. Torrento Connect is the separate subscription-backed remote-access service because it runs the hosted presence, signaling, and encrypted relay infrastructure.

Jump to the page for your torrent client

Each supported client now has its own crawlable landing page that connects the Android app, Torrento Connect, downloads, and setup guidance for that exact flow.
