Before you start, be aware that you’ll need to download either the Mac version of uTorrent, or a windows compatible version to follow along with this tutorial. You can download it from:uTorrent.com
- Visit http://remote.utorrent.com on your iDevice.
- Select the share tab on the bottom of Safari, select ‘Add to home screen’.
- On your computer, access the preferences for uTorrent.
- Select the ‘Remote’ tab.
- Select ‘uTorrent Remote’.
- Check ‘Enable uTorrent Remote’.
- Fill in a computer name and password.
- Select ‘Sign In’.
- Back on your mobile device, launch the new uTorrent for iPhone web icon on your home screen.
- Enter the same credentials you selected from the process on your computer.
- You should now successfully be able to log into your uTorrent account, and start, stop, pause torrent files on the go!
This is an incredibly useful tool, as you now don’t have to wait until you’re home to realize you accidentally paused a torrent, or something similar. You are now able to manage, and view all of your active torrents from your mobile device without any issues with slowing or messing up your torrenting needs. This process was demonstrated with an iPhone, but uTorrent remote is just as easy, if not easier, via Android. Enjoy!
