To download movies on Android with uTorrent, you would need the Android version of the popular torrent downloader app. You can get the app on Play Store.

After downloading the app, the other processes of downloading movies from uTorrent in Android mobile is straightforward: You just need to get the magnet link or download the torrent file of the movie and then allow uTorrent do its things.

Note, however, that uTorrent Android app has a free and premium version, and with the free version, you would only be able to add the magnet link. It appears that uploading a torrent file is only available to the premium users.

The Steps

  • Once uTorrent has successful installed, tap on it to launch
  • After launching, if your phone requests you to allow uTorrent to access photos, media, and files, as it is requested on my phone, tap Allow
  • When the app is open, tap away from the options menu of the app. It would take you to a white area where you would see the search icon
  • Tap on the search icon and enter the name of the movie you want to download from uTorrent in Android mobile

Note: When it comes to downloading movies on Android with uTorrent, you have to follow a search string, which is: “movie’s name [space] torrent.” Because Black Panther is one of the reigning movies now, I would use it as an example. So my search string would be “Black Panther torrent.”

  • After typing the search string, tap on Search. You would be requested to do the search in a browser. My favourite Android phone browser is UC Browser, so I will tap on it

The browser would show you result on Google; you can now explore the different results until you see a good website that allows you download the torrent file or give you the magnet link.

Since the free version of uTorrent only allows the magnet link, make sure to the get the magnet link of the movie you want to download. After getting the link, proceed as follow.

  • Go back to the uTorrent app
  • Tap on the three dots towards the top-right corner
  • Tap on Add Torrent URL. The copied magnet link would automatically be loaded into the URL
  • Tap on Add

The above steps on how to download movies on android with uTorrent work perfectly; however, personally, I love getting my torrent files from ThePirateBay – even though there is a wide claim that the giant torrent website hijacks users’ computer to mine cryptocurrency.

I don’t think I care about the claim, as the torrent site has always been my resort for getting almost everything I wanted to download. Here is how I download movies on Android with uTorrent, using ThePirateBay as my torrent website of choice.

  • On my beloved UC Browser, I go to ThePirateBay’s mobile website (m.thepiratebay.com)
  • Once the website has opened, I type in the name of the movie. In this case, I will type in Black Panther
  • Then I tap on the Video option to tailor the search to only videos
  • Then I tap on Pirate Search – and the results would show

When downloading movies from uTorrent in Android mobile or PC, I love clear quality videos, usually 720 or 1080 pixel HD or BlueRay. Therefore, I will tap on the result with 720 BRrip.

  • On the movie’s page, I tap and hold GET TORRENT to load options on the page
  • Then I tap on Copy Link, to copy the magnet link of the movie. (If I like to download the torrent file, I would tap on GET TORRENT FILE
  • Then, I go back to the uTorrent Android app
  • Then I tap on the three dots towards the top-right corner
  • Then I tap on Add Torrent URL, and finally, I tap on Add so that the torrent can load and start downloading

That’s how to download movies on Android with uTorrent. As to answer the question, “where does uTorrent save files on Android,” all downloaded torrent files through the uTorrent Android app are saved in the Android Download folder. So after the movie has successfully downloaded, you would see it in the Download folder.

It’s advisable that when you want to download movies from uTorrent in Android mobile (and even PC), you should have a good VPN app installed on your device. At the same time, you should have a strong antivirus.

The VPN helps protect your online identity while downloading the torrent, while the antivirus helps secure your device against viruses and hacks, as torrents are widely used for spreading viruses – and hijacking devices.

What is TorrDroid

To download torrents on an Android device we are going to use an app called TorrDroid, a popular, minimalist, and free Android torrent downloader. Some of the features of TorrDroid include but not limited to built-in torrent search, support for downloading via .torrent files and magnet links, ability to restrict app to download only on WiFi, ability to set download and upload limits, queuing downloads, detailed download progress screen, built-in file browser, simultaneous downloads, support for sequential downloading to play media files while downloading, ability to select external SD card as download destination, etc. Simply put, TorrDroid has all the features you’d expect from a good torrent downloader.

One thing to keep in mind is that being a free app, it is supported by ads. But the ads are not intrusive like in other apps I’ve tried (i’m looking at you uTorrent), at least as of writing this guide.

Download Torrents on Android

To get started, search for TorrDroidin Play Store and click on the install button to install the app on your Android device. Once installed launch the app from the app menu.

As soon as you launch the app, it will ask for a few permissions to work properly. Give those permissions by tapping on the “Allow” option.

How To Download Using Utorrent For Android App

To download torrents you either need to have access to the .torrent file or magnet link. Since the app already lets you search for torrents using the built-in search feature, do try it. Simply enter the keyword, select the torrent type, and tap on the option “Search.”

Android

The app will show you all the available torrents from trusted sites. If one of them is to your liking then tap on it to start the download process. Or you can download the torrent file (.torrent) from other sources say your computer and import them into the app to start downloading.

However, as much as possible, always download torrent files from official websites. For instance, I’ve downloaded Linux Mint torrent file from the official website. This ensures that the torrent is genuine and free of any nasty stuff. To add a .torrent file to TorrDroid, tap on the “Add” icon and select the option “Add torrent.”

Note: if you have magnet link then select “Add link” option, paste the magnet link and tap on the “Ok” button.

The above action will open the built-in file manager. Here, navigate to the folder where you’ve stored the torrent file and select it. To quickly change between internal and external SD card, you can use the top drop-down menu.

As soon as you select the torrent, TorrDroid starts downloading the file. Depending on the file size and download speed, it might take some time to download the file. You can see the estimated time remaining (ETR) at the bottom.

Managing Torrents

By default, TorrDroid will download torrents regardless if you are on WiFi or on mobile data. If you want to avoid downloading on mobile data, tap on the Settings icon (three vertical dots) appearing in the top right corner and select the option “Settings.”

In the settings panel, select the checkbox next to “Download over WiFi only.” This ensures that the torrent file will only be downloaded when you are connected to a WiFi network. If you are disconnected from WiFi, the torrent downloading is automatically paused. When you are back to WiFi, the download starts again.

As I said before, TorrDroid gives you greater control over torrent downloading. For instance, if TorrDroid is hogging all the bandwidth and making your other internet activities slow then you can change the download and upload speeds to meet your needs. To change the individual torrent settings, tap on the “Options” icon (three horizontal lines). Also, the options icon wiggles itself so its hard to miss.

The above action will open the Info tab. Here, scroll down and enter speed in KB’s under Download Rate Limit and tap on the save icon.

The download speed will be instantly limited freeing up the bandwidth for other activities.

Also, if you are downloading a media file and would like to watch it while downloading then select the checkbox “Enable sequential download.”

To view the additional details of the torrent like number of seeders and leechers, amount downloaded and uploaded, number of pieces, share ratio, etc., navigate to the “Status” tab.

If there are multiple files in a torrent and you would like to pick and choose which file to download, you can do so from the Files tab. Navigate to the Files tab and uncheck the files you want to avoid downloading. Since I don’t have multiple files I can’t really choose but you can if you have multiple files.

Once the torrent has been downloaded, navigate to the destination folder using your favorite file manager. You can find the folder/file path in the Info tab.
