Note

TorrentSearch requires Android 7.1 or newer.

Nightly builds are available in the Actions workflow runs. They are generated automatically for each commit and may be unstable.

Features

Search

• Per-provider enable/disable toggles
• Multiple category: Anime, Apps, Books, Games, Movies, Series, and more
• Parallel search across all providers with streaming results
• Support for sorting and filtering torrents with different options

Detailed results

Each result includes:

• Torrent name
• File size
• Seeders and peers
• Upload date
• Category
• NSFW indicator
• Provider name

Torrent actions

• Open magnet link in an external torrent client
• Download .torrent file to local storage
• View torrent details directly inside the app or open the full page in your browser
• Copy or share the magnet link or details page link

If no torrent client is installed, TorrentSearch provides links to FOSS torrent clients.

Torrent details

• Support for viewing details directly inside the app. It can be disabled to open the page directly in your default browser instead.
• Media poster with automatic NSFW image blurring (can be disabled)
• Screenshot previews
• Full description with inline image support

Note: Media poster and screenshots are shown only when available

Browse

• A dedicated screen for browsing latest and top torrents
• Filter torrents with different options

Bookmarks

• Save torrents for later
• Export and import support

Safe mode

When enabled, safe mode automatically:

• Disables unsafe and NSFW providers
• Hides NSFW categories and torrents

Integrations

Connect your own indexer via the Torznab API:

• Jackett
• Prowlarr
• Other *arr services

See the wiki for setup instructions.

Material 3 design

• Clean, easy-to-use interface
• Adapts to your wallpaper and system theme, with full light/dark mode support

Building from source

The easiest way is to open the project in Android Studio. It handles all setup and lets you run the app in a single click.

Command line

Requirements:

• JDK 17+ with JAVA_HOME set (Adoptium recommended)
• Android SDK: Android Studio will automatically handle downloading and setting up this but if you prefer using command-line without full Android Studio installation, download the SDK from here and set ANDROID_HOME environment variable with SDK path, or add sdk.dir to local.properties in the project root.

git clone https://github.com/prajwalch/TorrentSearch.git
cd TorrentSearch
./gradlew assembleDebug

Output: app/build/outputs/apk/debug/
