Clever Bittorrent client with powerful search tool

Coming from the developer of the excellent Acquisition search tool, we're bound to expect a top notch program. The Xtorrent client does not disappoint.

This Bittorrent client offers a powerful search tool, reminiscent of Acquisition, and a great way of organizing your different downloads. These will be separated by type (image, video, audio) and can be stored in different groups. Once a file is downloaded you can have Xtorrent automatically store it somewhere, such as place audio files in iTunes.

Torrents can be managed individually and Xtorrent offers both a progress bar and bottom information window to keep you updated on all the stats relating to the torrent.

I enjoyed the torrentcast feature, which is ideal to download new episodes of a file being released regularly.

If there's one thing that's missing from Xtorrent, it's the ability to create your own trackers, a feature now available in most torrent clients. I also felt the interface could get a little crowded with many downloads running.

Overall though, Xtorrent is a clever torrent client with a great search tool and a cool torrentcast feature.

It does not work at all on macOS Catalina (10.15.2). It should be updated.

It doesn't work, PERIOD. Rip-off and very frustrating. I WASTED $25.00. Bought upgrade. Got code,pasted,it said I was successful. But it just keeps popping up a window saying I should upgrade. Where did my money go??????? Pros: None I can see. It won't let me download a single thing. Cons: It says your code has been accepted. Then it harasses you to upgrade, when you already DID. Haven't been able to use it once. Legal theft is what this is.

Keeps cutting my internet connection. I was excited about the xtorrent so I purchased the PRO version although it was expensive. What a waste of money! Every time I start xtorrent it cuts my internet connection. Not only locally but my entire local wireless network. I have to reboot my timecapsule/airport to get it back. I can no longer use the application. Pros: Nice interface Cons: 1. feedback@xtorrent doesn't respond to emails.2. Their forum is fake - only approved posts make it (3 of my posts haven't made it - I guess they were asking questions the admins didn't want to hear)3. I submitted a bug report with all the documentation they asked for - never heard back - not even acknowledged that they had received the report. (so not happy that I paid for this POS)

Completly crap!. I used it a few times, but i just HATE it. It KEEPS CRASHING, it TAKES UP 50% OF THE PROCECCOR POWER WHILE IT'S RUNNING, it SLOWS DOWN the computer EVEN WHEN IT'S NOT RUNNING and IT IS THE WORST PROGRAM I EVER DOWNLOADED!!!Never download it. Never. Never ****** ever.Because IT IS TERRIBLE! Pros: Nothing is good. Cons: Slows down computer, crashes, takes up 50% of the processor power, slow downloading, terrible layout, boring layout, slow turning it on... And all the rest.
