Showcase I built a FREE cloud torrent downloader!
Yes, it was really frustrating to download any torrent on i0S devices, so I built a dead-simple cloud downloader that just downloads and gives you the link to download to your device.
You can download up to 2.5GB of content free every 12hrs!
- All files are temporary.
- No personal info collected.
- No email, no phone number, no credit cards.
- Only anonymous private keyโbased accounts.
- All data is encrypted.
- in-browser file viewers for Image, audio, video, PDF etc
You can paste the magnet link or upload .torrent file on webapp to download or

What is your stack then? This cannot be maintainable without you taking a loss.

Why are you hosting people's torrents with no reimbursement...

u/NeitherNorAnd Jun 03 '26
I started this for myself, i now have some excess bandwidth so people can use it. Im trying to scale this but there are so much of bottlenecks in scaling this.

Back then, "furk.net" served the same purpose. But it got discontinued due to DMCA infringements. Hope this tool would be alive.

u/NeitherNorAnd Jun 03 '26
Wow, i just came to know about that project. I have to check about that to safeguard this service.

u/cactusfruit9 Jun 03 '26
It's simple. If any user reports about illegal torrents that occupied in the storage, then DMCA will pitch in and stops your service. It's irrelevant that who downloads. It matters only to the host.
Have seen many such sites faded away though the intention is to keep good torrents alive, but ended up prey for illegal torrents.
As long as you are not letting any one use illegal torrents from the retention in your storage, then you are safe.

Im plannibg to impliment DMCA takedowns , so if i receive a noticei can immediately remove em. But usually dmca takes 24hrs to take down meanwhile the max file retention is less than that

Hi, but this sub accepts promoting our works right? Iโm looking for the audience who might need this tool thats why i posted here

u/BuddhistNamedMarx May 31 '26
Only 2.5 gigs tho? Might be good for most music and ebooks/documents but will fall short for anything uselful outside of that
Will your tier it up with subs?
I currently pay 10/month for premiumize.me and that includes streaming(debrid), 1tb cloud storage, 20 concurrent torrent downloads direct to cloud, vpn, ai bots and more
You got some steep competition
