About Transdroid

Transdroid lets you control a torrent client running on another computer, server or NAS from an Android device. It works with clients including Transmission, qBittorrent, rTorrent, Deluge, µTorrent, aria2, Tixati, Synology and KTorrent, and offers widgets for quick access.

The app has been around since 2009. Its developer is planning Transdroid 3 as a full rewrite and redesign, and is collecting feedback on which clients and features to support. A Lite version is available on Google Play.
