Stream and download torrents directly on Android with external media players.
Torrent Player is a lightweight, high-performance torrent downloader and streaming engine designed specifically for Android.
Download torrents directly to your local storage or stream growing video files on-the-fly using your favorite external media players.
Core Features:
• Direct Local Storage: Single-contract download directly to local public storage (Downloads/Webtor) for straightforward file management.
• In-Progress Video Streaming: Stream growing video files directly to external players such as VLC, Nova Video Player, MPV, or Just Player without waiting for downloads to finish.
• Selective File Downloading: Choose specific files to prioritize or download in multi-file swarms.
• Bitfield Piece Visualizer: Interactive real-time visualizer showing piece distribution and swarm availability.
• Optimized Resource & Battery Usage: Adaptive polling back-off and a native Go engine with bounded preparation storage.
• Modern Material 3 Interface: Intuitive UI with dynamic colors, dark theme support, and animated video preview cards.
• Direct Play: Stream a video from RAM without saving the whole file. Only each video's start and end are kept (up to 1 GB) so episodes reopen fast.
• Continue Watching and Play Next: Resume where you left off and move on to the next episode, with its start fetched in advance.
• Fast Seeking: A small model learned on your phone predicts when each peer will deliver a block, so the data at the play position is requested from the peers likely to send it first. It runs and is stored only on the device.
• Peer Map: Shows peer countries using an offline database bundled with the app (DB-IP Lite, CC BY 4.0). No lookup requests are made.
Privacy & Freedom:
• 100% Free and Open Source Software (MIT License).
• No advertising trackers, analytics, or telemetry.
• Zero advertisements.
• Direct peer-to-peer swarm connectivity (DHT, UDP trackers, TCP, uTP, WebSockets, and WebRTC).
Network connections:
• When the app starts, the engine automatically refreshes a cached public tracker list from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ngosang/trackerslist/master/trackers_best.txt. Successful refreshes are scheduled once per day; failed requests may be retried. This request downloads a shared list and does not send torrent hashes or user-supplied tracker URLs.
• Up to 24 additional public BitTorrent trackers are automatically added to each non-private torrent to help discover peers. Cached and built-in fallback trackers are used when the list is unavailable. Private torrents are excluded. Torrent announces share your IP address and torrent info hash with the trackers contacted.
• WebRTC peer connections use STUN servers operated by Google, Twilio, and Cloudflare to discover a public network address for connectivity. These providers can see the source IP address of STUN requests.
• Seeding is on by default: after a download completes, its verified pieces are uploaded to other peers until a share ratio of 1.0 or 60 minutes of seeding, at up to 256 KiB/s and only on Wi-Fi. Seeding pauses during playback. Turn it off or change the limits in Settings, Seeding.
• The app does not provide settings to disable public tracker-list refresh, extra public trackers, or WebRTC. This build supports arm64-v8a devices.
