qBittorrent is a client application which can download and share torrent files. The application provides both a file manager and a torrent search engine. The search engine can categorize results.

The program was originally created as a free and open alternative to commercial programs like uTorrent and BitComet and is constantly being developed by its collaborators with new features added often.
