 For the first time, the publicly available version of this client was released on September 18, 2005. After six and a half months, PeerFactor signed a contract with the developer, Ludwig Strigueus, to develop applications for distributing content on the global network.

 

Since 2011, users have been able to send files via BitTorrent protocol. This was a real breakthrough in the transfer of information: sending "piece by piece" approached people with even the slowest computers.

 

Briefly about microtorrent

 

uTorrent works on several platforms: Windows, IOS, Android, Mac OS and Linux (server version). Among the programs of peer-to-peer networks, it is downloaded the most. He achieved popularity due to high functionality and low weight.

 

Client features:

 

  • work without interruption when downloading up to five thousand torrents;
  • creating your own hands;
  • functionality in 66 languages;
  • convenient interface settings;
  • distribution of supersides;
  • proxy support;
  • Unicode and UPnP support for Windows;
  • the ability to boot from a flash drive;
  • statistics for viewing used traffic;
  • advanced autonomic shutdown options;
  • caching setting;
  • streaming video files;
  • availability of ratings and ratings, comments;
  • change in download speed limits.

 

A file search is built into the application, but more often it downloads torrents from third-party resources on the Internet.

 

The client is convenient and easy to learn. The menu is standard: settings, help, windows with distributions and with parameters of each of them. The developer recommends upgrading to the Pro version - it has more useful features.

 

Advanced version

 

Twenty dollars a year will have to pay for early streaming, built-in file conversion, antivirus and no ads.

 

Program installation

 

Download the program from the developer page. The standard installer opens. Don't miss an important step: add uTorrent to Windows Firewall Exceptions to download content. During the installation process, an offer for downloading the partners' software may come out.

 

Install the client on a powerful hard drive: performance will be peak. An external disk or flash card will severely curtail the capabilities of the program.

 

uTorrent for Android

 

The mobile version has a similar interface and good settings. You can search for files in the system or download them from the browser. From the settings - limiting the use of mobile traffic, then the download will go only when accessing wi-fi.

 

The application can manage downloads (stop and cancel), shows information about the selected download, displays the process as a percentage and finds files in the device library.

So far, only the Remote version exists for this platform. But remotely controlling downloads on a computer is also convenient.
