Steps to download torrents on Android



Let us now check out the steps for downloading torrents on your Android device.
Step 1
Access the Google Android Market application from your phone's application menu. The app may be placed on the home screen as well.


Step 2
Once the Android Market app is open, try locating the app under the utilities tab. You can also use the search widget of the application, located on the upper right side of the screen, and search for Atorrent. This is a free application and has been tried. However, for security purpose, make sure you read the permissions any application asks for.



Step 3
Upon installing the application, start the application. You can also exit the Android Market application and run the Atorrent form the main applications menu.


Step 4
Atorrent app will open up to the main splash screen which showcases the torrent search tab. You can now search for torrent files using this.


Step 5
This application is configured to use the default browser using which one can browse for torrent files and download them.
Note that there are both legal and illegal torrents and we do not encourage illegal downloads.


Step 6
Once the torrent file gets downloaded, you need to use it to start the download by selecting the add torrent option from the Atorrent application menu. It can be accessed by using the menu or the options key on your device, from within the application.


Step 7
The application will now showcase the available torrent files. Select the desired file to start the download.


Step 8
Upon selection, the application will prompt you again to check the details of the torrent.


Step 9
The application will start downloading data. The network-bar-type sign of an Atorrent file indicates the number of connections available. The higher the bar goes the faster your files will get downloaded.


Step 10
You can set the application to download only when it is connected to a high speed data network such as WiFi. To make changes, you can open the settings from the options menu of the application.

You can also choose to download the application while it is connected to a power source. The device will download data only while charging in order to conserve battery.

Step 11

Depending on the file size, the torrent will show the time it will take for download.
