Comments on LibreTorrent for Android

★★★★★ A Google user · Aug 1, 2026
The only torrent app on Android that gets out of your way and works smoothly. No ads or other creep. So much to love♥️
★★★★★ Douglas Silva · Apr 20, 2026
It's great, overall. I have been using it daily for the past year. My only complaint is about the startup process, which is very slow when you have dozens of torrents, as it loads every torrent sequentially (one by one). Interacting with any of them before it's fully loaded results in errors and unexpected behaviors.
★★★★★ Łukasz Klimkiewicz · Jul 23, 2026
LibreTorrent is fast, lightweight, and incredibly reliable. The interface is clean, downloads run smoothly, and the app gives full control over every detail. No ads, no nonsense — just a powerful open‑source torrent client that works perfectly. A well‑deserved 5 stars.
★☆☆☆☆ Wasif Ahsan · Apr 30, 2026
Please make "Wi-Fi only download" the DEFAULT. THE DEFAULT. I lost all my mobile data because I downloaded the app again after long time and forgot this thing existed.
★☆☆☆☆ Phoenix Biru · Mar 24, 2026
Speed was 0kbs while another app got speed around 8kbs - 3mbs (the same file). Why bother make an app which is not working. Uninstalled.
★☆☆☆☆ Syfur Rahman · Mar 29, 2026
Doesn’t seem to work or connect to any seeds. Loaded a magnet url from a torrent and the metadata was fetched alright. Then no downloading for a long time. I spin up the same torrent in BitTorrent, and it starts downloading within seconds after the data was fetched.
★☆☆☆☆ Glen · May 6, 2026
The app says the file is downloaded and starts sending, yet the file does not appear anywhere in my phone's storage including in the "save torrents in..." selected download folder.
★☆☆☆☆ ChemiG · May 30, 2026
1. It crushes your vpn when using this app. 2. I can't download the same torrent if I restart the app.
★☆☆☆☆ Артём Горбацевич · Jun 16, 2026
App doesn't have actual manifest file with correct permission checks. Therefore, I was not able to use this app to download anything since it has no permission to write. Moreover, I have no option to grant such permission
