An independently written Chromium browser extension for managing qBittorrent through its WebAPI.
- qBittorrent API-key (Bearer) authentication only
- Torrent list with progress, status, seeds/peers, speeds and ETA
- Select one or more torrents for Start, Stop and Remove
- Torrent detail panel with piece-by-piece download progress
- Add
.torrentfiles and torrent URLs/magnets - Optional automatic start for newly added torrents
- Right-click actions when the browser permits extension context menus
- Direct link to the qBittorrent WebUI
- Free disk space and aggregate transfer speeds in the bottom status bar
- No cloud backup, telemetry, external scripts or qBittorrent username/password login
Designed for qBittorrent 5.2+ and Chromium MV3 browsers such as Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.
Enable API-key authentication in qBittorrent WebUI and enter the WebUI address and API key in the extension settings. If an API request is rejected with HTTP 401/403 while the API key itself is known to be correct, check qBittorrent WebUI CSRF/origin protection settings.
The extension communicates directly with the qBittorrent WebAPI address configured by the user. The API key is stored in browser extension storage and is sent only to that configured WebAPI endpoint. No analytics or telemetry service is used.
