Deluge + Android

Control Deluge from Android

Use Torrento for free local Deluge control, or add Torrento Connect when you want secure remote access.

Torrento is the Android control surface, not the torrent client itself. It connects to the Deluge instance you already run on a NAS, Linux server, Docker host, desktop, or other always-on machine, then gives you one place to monitor and manage Deluge from your phone.

  • Connect directly to Deluge on the same local network without paying for remote access you do not need.
  • Use Torrento Connect when you want Deluge access away from home without exposing the Deluge WebUI publicly.
  • Track speeds and progress, search torrents, add new torrents, and run the actions you use every day from Android.
Overview

Why Torrento fits Deluge on Android

This page stays grounded in the same product model used across the rest of the site: Torrento is the Android app, Deluge stays the torrent client, and Torrento Connect is the optional remote layer.

Local Deluge control stays free

If your Android device can reach Deluge on the same network, you can add Deluge directly in Torrento without needing Torrento Connect just to manage it locally.

Remote access can use Torrento Connect

When you want Deluge access away from home, pair a lightweight companion near Deluge and let Torrento Connect handle the remote path without exposing the WebUI publicly.

Built for daily torrent management

Use the same Android app to watch live download and upload speeds, check torrent progress, search large lists, and add new torrents from magnet links, URLs, or .torrent files.

Works beyond one Deluge box

Torrento can keep multiple saved servers and can mix Deluge with qBittorrent or Transmission if your setup spans more than one torrent client.

How It Works

How to connect Deluge to Torrento on Android

The visible steps below match the HowTo structured data attached to this page.

1

Enable Deluge WebUI

Turn on the Deluge WebUI plugin and confirm the host, port, and password Deluge already uses for browser access.

2

Choose the local or remote path

Add Deluge directly in Torrento for local network use, or install Torrento Connect near Deluge when you want secure remote Android access.

3

Test and save the Deluge connection

Use the same Deluge WebUI details. If you use Torrento Connect, add and test Deluge on the companion first, then import that saved client into the Android app.

4

Manage Deluge from Android

Browse torrents, watch speeds and progress, add new torrents, and run actions like pause, resume, delete, move, and category changes from Torrento.

Deluge connection details that usually matter

Enable the Deluge WebUI plugin first. For direct Android connections, use the Deluge server's LAN IP and WebUI port. If your Torrento Connect companion runs on the same machine as Deluge, it can often reach Deluge over localhost. Deluge WebUI commonly uses port 8112, and the WebUI password is often deluge until you change it.

FAQ

Deluge remote Android FAQ

These visible answers match the FAQ structured data attached to this page.

Does Torrento work with Deluge on Android?

Yes. Torrento supports Deluge through the Deluge WebUI. Enable the WebUI plugin, use the same host, port, and password Deluge already uses, and control it from the Torrento Android app.

Is controlling Deluge from Android free with Torrento?

Yes. Local Deluge management stays free in the Torrento Android app. Remove Ads is the separate one-time purchase, and Torrento Connect is the separate option when you want secure remote access away from your local network.

How do I control Deluge remotely from Android?

Install a Torrento Connect companion near Deluge, pair it from the Torrento Android app, add and test your Deluge connection on the companion, then import that saved client into Torrento for remote control.

Do I need to expose the Deluge WebUI to the internet?

No. For remote access, Torrento Connect is designed so you do not have to expose the Deluge WebUI publicly or set up manual port forwarding, reverse proxies, or a VPN just to reach Deluge from Android.

What can I do with Deluge from the Torrento Android app?

You can monitor live speeds and progress, search torrents, add magnet links, direct URLs, or .torrent files, and use actions like pause, resume, delete, move, and category changes from the Android app.

What Deluge host and port should I use in Torrento?

Use the address that the thing making the connection can actually reach. Direct Android connections usually need the Deluge server's LAN IP, while a Torrento Connect companion on the same machine as Deluge can often use localhost. Deluge WebUI commonly runs on port 8112.

Start with the Deluge path that matches your real setup

Use Torrento locally for free if your phone and Deluge live on the same network. Add Torrento Connect only when you want secure Deluge access away from home, then choose the companion install guide that matches your Docker host, Linux machine, or Mac.
