About Transmission Remote GUI

Transmission Remote GUI connects to a Transmission daemon, often running on a server or NAS, and manages its torrents from a native desktop window. You can add torrents and magnet links, manage trackers and watch transfers, with more functionality than Transmission's built-in web interface.

It is written in Free Pascal with Lazarus and is packaged with a Windows installer and a snap for Linux. It suits people who run Transmission headless and want a full desktop client to control it.

Strengths

  • Full desktop interface for a headless Transmission daemon
  • More features than Transmission's web UI
  • Cross-platform

Limitations

  • Only works with Transmission
  • Needs a running Transmission daemon to connect to
