What is taurent?

Taurent is a native looking app that lets you control a qBittorrent server from your desktop or phone. If you already run qBittorrent on a NAS, seedbox, home server, or spare machine with its Web UI turned on, Taurent gives you a dedicated app to manage it instead of keeping a browser tab open all day. It is not its own torrent downloading engine. Taurent connects to your existing qBittorrent installation through its Web UI and lets you add torrents and magnet links, pause, resume, delete, rename, or recheck them, move files, set per-torrent limits, and inspect details like trackers and peers. You can filter your list by status, category, tag, or tracker, manage tags and categories, and adjust common qBittorrent settings such as transfer limits and queueing. It also supports search and RSS features when your connected server allows them, and it lets you save profiles for multiple qBittorrent servers so you can switch between them easily. On desktop it adds native touches like a tray menu, file associations for torrent files, notifications, and several utility windows. On mobile it offers a touch friendly version of the same core features, currently available as Android beta builds, with iOS support present in the code but not yet distributed publicly. Nine built in themes are included so you can match your setup's look. Taurent is built with Tauri, React, and Rust, and is open source under the MIT license. The project says it avoids intentional telemetry, stores your server details locally, and uses your operating system's secure storage for saved passwords when it is available. It is currently in beta, so testers should expect some rough edges and unsigned builds on some platforms. It is not affiliated with the qBittorrent project itself.
