What is this WebApp?



The iPhone has always had a major flaw: No copy & paste. This has caused problems with every day tasks such as copying torrent URL's from search engines and pasting it into your uTorrent WebGUI interface.

Visit http://www.louish.com/iphone/ on your iPhone.
or for a secure connection:
Visit https://www.louishsecure.com/iphone/ on your iPhone.


That is why we decided to develop a WebApp that solves this problem. You can now search for torrents, and push the url directly to your uTorrent WebGUI. To get started, you must have the WebGUI interface enabled in your uTorrent program. Your WebGUI interface must be accessable from outside your network, you will need to forward the WebGUI port in your Port Forwarding settings on your router. Visit http://www.louish.com/iphone/ on your iPhone, and enter your uTorrent WebGUI url at the bottom. Do not include http:// and do not include /gui/. Just enter your home IP address and port.

This is NOT an iPhone only app. This will work on any cell phone web browser. This application allows you to search for torrents and send/push the torrent url to your uTorrent Web UI interface at your home or office. This is not "torrent for your phone". This simply lets you start downloading torrents remotely when you're away from home.

Once your IP and Port are saved, you can start searching for torrents. When you find the one you want, click the blue Louish Logo icon on the right. If your WebGUI interface is password protected, you will be prompted to enter your username and password after the first time you start a download.

The WebAPP also includes a link to an iPhone App Interface to review your current downloads. This link is to a seperate iPhone uTorrent interface that must be installed on your computer to work. Installing this iPhone interface app is not required to use our WebAPP, its just recommended so you can review your downloads to verify the download started correctly.

Which "uTorrent App" are you referring to? Cause no "App" needs to be installed on the iPhone. This is completely a Web App, so it should work the exact same on both an Instinct and an iPhone. The link at the bottom of the WebApp that says "Go to iPhone uTorrent App" is just a link to YOUR.IP.ADDRESS:PORT/gui/iphone/i.html

That "iPhone" interface is just a zip file you need to extra into the webgui.zip file for your uTorrent gui. I havent tested it on any other devices, but it works in all browsers, so you shouldn't have a problem. You can see more instructions on setting up that app here: http://www.davidraso.com/utorrent-iphone/

What can I say. Kick ass. Works brilliantly. Another sweet use of the iPhone. I am showing everyone. I get home and my torrents are down.

Oh, man. I was up and running with this in like 2 minutes. So friggin' awesome! Its literally like a koala bear shoved a rainbow up my ass!

I still wish I had cut & paste though... I want to be able to use the Google Mobile App to do a voice recognition search for my torrents, damnit!
