How can we improve µTorrent Remote?

Add magnet support to Android app

Right now when we try to add a magnet link to the android utorrent app it tells us magnet is an unknown protocol. It would be nice if support for it could be added.

        It could be that this has actually been implemented. I still get error when copying and pasting the magnet link. But as bert02 said, if I log on then tap on a link in chrome, it auto loads it into utorrent, but like if i clicked on the link from the computer.

        I am not sure about the µTorrent Remote app, but the native µTorrent app (which is in beta now) supports magnet links. You can just click on the magnet link in the torrent website and it just opens with µTorrent app

        On mine it doesn't even do that. It just acts like it is going to open then just doesnt do anything. So annoying.
