My very popular uTorrent Web UI for iPhone web app has been out there for a while now (still having dozens of downloads every day). Thank you all.
At the moment in order to use it you have to be connected to your local network using Wi-Fi. Quite often I find myself wanting to use it even outside my network – from Wi-Fi in some coffee shop, shopping mall or my friend’s place. I can do it if I know the IP Address of PC running the uTorrent client and the port number and all this should be configured beforehand (which also involves firewall configuration). Another issue is that the IP address can change very often (unless you’ve got dedicated IP) and this depends on your ISP. And when it changes I need to change the URL in the Safari browser in order to navigate to this app.
My new vision is to have one URL that will be used to connect to uTorrent client. I want to configure it once and it will always give me access to my downloads. There’s no need to check whether my IP changed. Simple and easy. One URL which can also be connected to multiple uTorrent clients.
What do you think, dear reader ? Would you like to have something like this ?

Thanks
First of all, I wish to express my gratitude to all those who have commented on this product and/or sent me several emails regarding new features and ideas. In addition I am very thankful and grateful to all those generous donations from you. Thank you for your support and encouragement. I appreciate it a lot.
Wish you all great holidays and a Happy New Year 2010 ! Have a year full of new and wonderful experiences.
I’ve just released a new and improved version of my µTorrent Web UI for iPhone.
So, what’s new in this version ?
Automatic version check
You do not need to leave this app in order to check for latest updates. Not anymore. The version check is performed automatically and you will get notified.
Preferences
Two more additions to the Preferences screen:
Scheduler: Allows you to enable/disable the scheduler in the uTorrent client.
Sorting: Now you can configure how to sort your torrents (by Title/ ID in Queue/ Size).
Add Torrent
You can easily add new torrents to download by clicking on Add Torrent button.
In my opinion the best and simple way to do this is by copying link of torrent file to clipboard and then come to this app and use the Paste feature to insert it into the Torrent Url field. Click on the Add Torrent to add it.
Buttons are more responsive now and easier to touch.
Enjoy !
