BitLord is a proprietary adware BitTorrent client available for Microsoft Windows, macOS and Android.[2] It is advertised as, and largely reviewed as, one of the easiest BitTorrent applications to use.[3][4] With a built-in search engine, video player with subtitles and the option to send video to a TV with Google Cast. It is possible to play videos from torrents while they are downloading on both desktop and mobile.[5][6]

History

BitLord was first released in December 2004, as BitLord 0.56, based on and under license from BitComet. From version 1.2 until 2.3.2, BitLord was based on Deluge, but has added several features of its own since then.

BitLord is (as of version 2.4) built using Python and the Qt cross-platform framework, and uses the libtorrent-rasterbar C++ library.

Security

While BitLord is generally regarded as a safe software to use,[7][8] upon download, BitLord will suggest that you install other programs, such as Opera and Avast Antivirus, both of which are often bundled with software such as BitLord and might be considered unwanted by the user.[9][10]
