I am using pikatorrent 0.9.0, and it's wonderful. Please add partial downloading with extension filename and associating with torrent files. Thank you.

Thank you for the kind words :hugs: What do you mean by partial downloading ? The ability to choose which files to download ?

Associating torrent files on which platform ?

1.Android download partial files based on the filename extension such as txt/ass/mp3/epub just like bigly bt does.That's better than select files one by one if there are hundred files in the torrent. 2. Android 12 cann't associate torrent files to pikatorrent directly. 3.Please add support for Android making torrent, including bt1.0/bt2.0/hybrid.Most private tracker only support bt1.0 torrent. 4.Enable Android Wifi download only.Thank you.

I found Android pikatorrent couldn't verify torrent manually if smartphone was power off.

Do you have an error message in this case @i990049 ? It does not re-check after a few minutes ?

Thank you for the info, 3) & 4) are planned, I will revisit 2) (failed to find a solution at the time I tried), and for 1) I guess we could filter files by text

[removed file] Most android bittorrent apps can associate torrent file. This is the torrent file that I only want the hundred ass/srt/jpg files in it. If the smartphone is turned off, the download progress will not be saved, and it will start downloading from 0% after turning on. You can test it with the latest Android pikatorrent.

Sorry I can't let you post any potentially copyrighted content. I removed it.

I will try to look into the issue about the download starting from scratch. When you say you turn off your phone, do you really mean turning it off, or putting it to sleep ?

power off without stopping download. And I found there is no RSS on android pikatorrent.
