Thread: How to add torrents in uTorrent via iPhone?

Hi guys,
can somebody help me?
I'd like to take torrents file from my favourite trackers and add them into seedbox's uTorrent, using my iPhone when I'm not at home.
Is it possible somehow?

Thanks in advance.

Bye

Not as far as I am aware. You would need to download the torrent to your iphone, to be able to upload it to rtorrent.

I don't think this is possible.

iPhone is very smart, and as far I know they can do a lot of things. That could be possible, but not without a hard work to get the perfect settings. You have to use a special bittorent client uTorrent mUI and Opera Mini for mobile device, and uTorrent client for PC set with WebUI option. You have to do lots of connections between.

Hope these links will help you:

I don't know if it really works as I did have patience to do all of work.

Definately a good idea.

Hadn't tought of it, yet...

Let me know if you manage to figure it out.

I'm gonna do a little research myself.


Regds.

I have heard about a remote android application for uTorrent, however i dont think there exsist one for iPhone. Maybe something to develop?
However if you seedbox runs a web server interface it shouldn't be any problem?

If you have your iPhone jailbroken you can use a very simply application to do that.

You just have to search Cydia for "uRemotte" and install the application. Then all you have to do is to complete the details in the settings such as your seedbox ip,port,username and password.

Edit. : Oops i think this one is just to monitor your seedbox but i am not sure if you can manage it too.

--- back in the days, there was Torrentouch, made for iPhone. This only let you see the torrents added to your seedbox, but they wanted more so it was supposed to give you access to that seedbox too. Unfortunately the project was shut down. But maybe you'll find something similar to Torrentouch.

You shouldn't need some special app for this basic function.

I'm currently using an Android phone (Nexus One). All I do are the following:

- Goto my tracker. Find the torrent. Copy the URL
- Login to my server's webui and add a new torrent
- Paste the link in the "Torrent URL" field

That's all you really need to do. There's no reason to have any third party app to complete this function.

i dont know the level of access you get with a seed box but the iphone has a VLC client app for free so you could install the server onto the seedbox and browse remotely.
