BiglyBT 1.6.0.0

Designed as a free and open-source torrent client, BiglyBT was worked from Azureus, keeping its popular features and adding new, practical ones. It contains no ads or banners, and no third-party tools are bundled with the installer.

Torrent client based on Azureus
Setup is customizable. Besides associated torrent files with BiglyBT and picking the UI mode (sidebar, classic), you can exclude any components when it comes to Swarm Discoveries (lists torrents that other people have downloaded and the ones you download) and Message Sync (provides decentralized public and anonymous chats with default channels for individual torrents, tags, subscriptions, and trackers).

Other modules include a location provider, remote plugin, Tor helper (provides backup connectivity via Tor but doesn't transfer torrents via Tor), and I2P helper (to download via the anonymous I2P network, including DHT support for decentralized tracking).

Tests your network connection for optimal speed
At startup, BiglyBT offers to test your Internet connection to be able to detect and apply the optimal speed settings. If you are already using Azureus or Vuvez and wish to switch to BiglyBT, then it's possible to migrate the configuration settings, downloads, and plugins, just like importing settings into from web browser from another.

Wrapped in a clean and intuitive interface, the torrent downloader has a familiar look, so it shouldn't impose any difficulties to users who are already accustomed to a torrent client. It actually has three user proficiency modes: beginners get access to the bare essentials, intermediate users can take advantage of more features for controlling and optimizing downloads, while the advanced users have full access to everything.

Control downloads and manage plugins
It's possible to limit the download and upload speed, filter sources by IP address, ask the tool to periodically recheck incomplete pieces, and rename displayed files. Plus, you can provide remote access to other devices to be able to control torrents, chat with other BiglyBT users anonymously or by creating a friends list, and so on.

A large part of BiglyBT's functionality is owed to plugins, which can be disabled anytime. New plugins can be obtained from the developer's website if you want to get a 3D view of the swarm, load movies in an embedded media player, integrate the application with iTunes, and more.

Promising free and open-source torrent client
Files were swiftly downloaded in our tests while the utility remained light on system resources usage. It had no trouble running properly on Windows 10 with the latest Java.

All aspects considered, BiglyBT may be new on the market but it seems to have all the necessary tools for competing with the bigger torrent clients. We're looking forward to new features and improvements.
