Ratings and reviews

Good app for newcomers, just search and it does it's thing. HOWEVER, it lacks the ability to customize like som other apps. No option to download on VPN only, which is, well, not good, to put it plainly. If your VPN shuts off and you're not staring at your device, this will continue to download without protection--this is a problem if you are concerned about privacy. Also see no way to customize trackers or hosts, which keeps your options pretty limited as far as what can actually be found.

This app used to be pretty amazing but the ads are getting worse and worse and now affect the download. In order for me to select a specific file to download out of a group, I have to sit through ads. That's fine, but after the ad the download doesn't start. It's an endless cycle of watching ads without anything happening. Some of the ads you can't even close others and you have to actually play a game in order to close it. I'm looking elsewhere for another option at this point.

Three complaints: the app will not allow me to choose a different folder on my SD card as the download destination. It only allows me to use the one recommended by the app default on my SD card and its a horrible location. Second, the ads! Way too much! Simply a deal breaker. Waaay too intrusive. When there are torrent apps out there that have NO ADS, you simply can't get away with bloating your app and the user experience with ads like this. Third, the downloads are very slow. Ugh.
