如何在 Apple 移动设备上使用 (How to Use Torrents on Apple Mobile Devices: )Torrent : Apple iPhone上的Torrent听起来有点矛盾。与其他移动操作系统相比,iOS 以其完美的安全性而闻名,因此不能接受 torrent 文件作为病毒的潜在滋生地。由于盗版问题,Torrent应用程序也被禁止在 iTunes 商店中使用。(Torrent)
由于这些和其他限制,一些用户避免从Apple购买小工具。(Apple)但是,如果您已经拥有 iPhone 或 iPad 并且需要将 torrent 文件下载到您的设备,您应该怎么做?出路仍然存在,尽管从一开始并不明显。这正是我们创建这个关于如何在Apple上使用种子的简短指南的原因。阅读并找出答案。
为什么在 iPhone 上使用 Torrent?(Why Use Torrents on iPhone?)
注意:(Note:)这是代表Ning Interactive Inc的赞助帖子。
Torrent技术以其更快的文件下载速度而闻名,因为内容分发是在点对点的基础上进行的。先前下载该文件的所有用户之间共享小信息块,并且它们都将这些数据位传输给同时下载该文件的用户。您的计算机无需向存储文件的集中式集线器发送请求,而是同时通过多个来源获取数据。
这就是为什么您可以使用种子下载相对较快的 10GB 文件的原因。如果用户需要用电影、游戏、音乐和软件填充 iPhone,它会派上用场。
例如,您想在 iPhone 上玩侠盗猎车手(Grand Theft Auto):圣安地列斯。(San Andreas)游戏大小约为 1.5GB,并非免费提供。您不能将其作为演示进行尝试。您需要预先支付费用。当然,我们都知道GTA在 PC 上的样子,但你永远不知道你是否会对移动设备上的控件和图形感到满意。
因此,对于喜欢玩最初为 PC 和游戏机制作的AAA项目的移动版本的游戏玩家来说,移动洪流是最相关的问题。(AAA)Torrent 通常可以在专门的网站上找到,但也可以通过本地游戏社区分发。如果您知道如何创建自己的氏族网站(create your own clan website)(create your own clan website)(现在这非常简单,这要归功于一些很棒的技术为您做这件事),您可以与您的追随者和其他游戏玩家共享无病毒、可靠的 torrent 文件。
但是,是否有必要越狱才能在Apple设备上使用种子文件?的确,越狱可能是五年前最简单的解决方案,但现在它的受欢迎程度正在逐渐下降。有一个原因:用户不想失去更新他们的 iOS 系统的能力和它提供的安全性。
别担心:我们不鼓励您越狱您的 iPhone。还有其他两种被认为是合法的解决方案。好吧,至少在形式上。
Method #1: iDownloader/iTransmission
正如我们之前所了解的,Apple Store不提供任何 torrent 客户端,因此 iDownloader 或 iTransmission 等服务不可用。但是,有一项付费服务可让您下载未经Apple官方批准并被困在茫茫荒野中的应用程序。它是BuildStore。
BuildStore 的价格低至 14.99 美元/年,在完成注册后立即支付。使用Safari(Safari)访问 BuildStore 的官方网站并找到 iTransmission 或 iDownloader 应用程序。您必须将其中之一下载到您的设备上。
最终,您需要自己下载一个 torrent 文件。您可以使用移动浏览器或通过将已有的链接粘贴为Magnet Torrent或直接URL在 Web 上找到所需的文件链接。
做得好。该应用程序会将所需的文件下载到您的Apple设备。您也可以选择所需的位置来保存下载的数据。
Method #2: Web-Based Services + Documents by Readdle
您可以避免使用类似应用程序的 torrent 客户端,而只需使用Safari浏览器下载 torrent 文件。但这涉及到一些第三方服务。经常用于此类目的的最受欢迎的网站之一是Zbigs.com。
Zbigs是一个基于云和网络的匿名 torrent 客户端,通常免费提供,但为想要享受附加功能的人提供高级版本。例如,您可以将文件保存在Google Drive上并下载大于 1GB 的文件。高级版每月 9.90 美元。
无论哪种方式,您都需要一个适用于 Windows 的文件管理器应用程序(file manager app for Windows)来将种子下载到您的 iPhone。这类最好的应用程序可能是Readdle的 Documents,尽管它能够存储 torrent 文件,但它仍然在AppStore上。(AppStore)我们实际上建议您安装它,即使您不太喜欢 torrent。它允许您将几乎所有流行格式的文件直接下载到您的手机,包括ZIP、MS Office、MP3等。对您的Apple 设备(Apple device)来说是多么棒的升级啊!
通过Readdle安装 Documents 后,使用该应用程序打开 torrent 站点。不要(Don)试图立即下载您需要的文件,只需复制磁力链接即可。然后转到Zbigs并将链接粘贴到相应的字段中。让Zbigs将文件上传到其服务器并等待它为您生成另一个链接。完成后,使用它通过Readdle的 Documents 下载文件。瞧(Voila),工作完成了。
结论(Conclusion )
在 iPhone 上下载种子永远不会像在Android或Windows上那么容易,但正如您所见,没有什么是不可能的。无论(Regardless)您选择哪种方法,您都可能希望在通过种子下载数据时使用VPN 。VPN允许您匿名浏览网页并防止公司的洪流监视。
但是,一些免费VPN服务的加载速度太慢,以至于您几乎无法滚动浏览Instagram提要,更不用说下载大文件了。为确保最佳性能,您需要确定您的VPN客户端不会让您失望,并且会提供不错的下载速度。
How to Use Torrents on Apple Mobile Devices
How to Use Torrents on Apple Mobile Devices: Torrents on Apple iPhone sound like an oxymoron. iOS is known for its flawless security compared to other mobile operating systems and therefore can’t accept torrent files as a potential breeding grounds for viruses. Torrent apps are banned from the iTunes store due to piracy issues as well.
Some users refrain from buying gadgets from Apple because of these and other restrictions. But what should you do if you already have an iPhone or iPad and need to download a torrent file to your device? The way out still exists, although it’s not obvious from the outset. That’s exactly why we’ve created this brief guide on how to use torrents on Apple. Give it a read and find out.
Why Use Torrents on iPhone?
Note: This is a sponsored post on behalf of Ning Interactive Inc.
Torrent technology is known for its much better speed of file download as the content distribution happens on a peer-to-peer basis. Small information chunks are shared between all users who previously downloaded the file, and they all transmit these bits of data to users who are downloading this file simultaneously. Rather than sending a request to a centralized hub where the file is stored, your computer gets data through multiple sources at the same time.
That is the reason why you can download a 10GB file relatively quickly by using torrents. It comes in handy if a user needs to fill their iPhone with movies, games, music, and software.
For example, you want to play Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on your iPhone. The game’s size is around 1.5GB, and it doesn’t come for free. You can’t try it as a demo. You’ll need to pay for it upfront. Of course, we all know how GTA looks like on PC, but you never know whether you’ll be comfortable with the controls and graphics on mobile.
Thus, mobile torrenting is the most relevant issue for gamers, who like to play mobile versions of AAA projects initially made for PC and consoles. Torrents are usually found on specialized websites, but they also can be distributed through local gaming communities. If you know how to create your own clan website (which is quite simple nowadays thanks to some awesome technologies that do it for you), you can share virus-free, reliable torrent files with your followers and fellow gamers.
But is it necessary to resort to jailbreaking to be able to use torrents on Apple devices? Indeed, jailbreaking was likely the simplest solution five years ago, but now its popularity is gradually declining. For a reason: users don’t want to lose the ability to update their iOS system and the security it provides.
Don’t worry: we’re not encouraging you to jailbreak your iPhone. There are two other solutions that are considered legal. Well, at least formally.
Method #1: iDownloader/iTransmission
As we have learned before, the Apple Store doesn’t feature any torrent clients, so services such as iDownloader or iTransmission are unavailable there. However, there is a paid service that allows you to download apps that were not approved by Apple officials and stuck in the middle of nowhere. It is BuildStore.
BuildStore comes at as low as $14.99/year, which is paid right after completing the registration. Go to the BuildStore’s official website using Safari and find the iTransmission or iDownloader app. You’ll have to download one of these to your device.
Eventually, you’ll need to download a torrent file itself. You can find a required file link on the web by using a mobile browser or by pasting the link you already have as a Magnet Torrent or a direct URL.
Well done. The app will download the required files to your Apple device. You can select the desired location to save the downloaded data as well.
Method #2: Web-Based Services + Documents by Readdle
You can avoid using app-like torrent clients and simply download torrent files using your Safari browser. But this involves some third-party services. One of the most popular websites often used for such purposes is Zbigs.com.
Zbigs is a cloud- and web-based anonymous torrent client which generally comes for free, but has a premium version for those who want to enjoy additional features. For example, you’ll be able to save files on Google Drive and download files larger than 1GB. The premium version comes at $9.90 per month.
Either way, you’ll need a file manager app for Windows to download torrents to your iPhone. Probably, the best app of this kind is Documents by Readdle, which is still on AppStore despite its ability to store torrent files. We actually recommend you to install it even if you’re not much into torrents. It allows you to download files of almost all popular formats directly to your phone, including ZIP, MS Office, MP3, and more. What a fantastic upgrade for your Apple device!
After installing Documents by Readdle, open the torrent site using the app. Don’t try to download the file you need straight away, just copy the magnet link. Then go to Zbigs and paste the link in the appropriate field. Let Zbigs upload the file to its servers and wait until it generates another link for you. Once completed, use it to download the file via Documents by Readdle. Voila, the job is done.
Conclusion
Torrenting on iPhone will never be as easy as on Android or Windows, but as you see, nothing is impossible. Regardless of the method you choose, you might want to use a VPN when downloading data through torrents. VPN allows you to browse the web anonymously and protects from corporate torrenting surveillance.
However, some free VPN services have such poor loading speed that you can barely scroll through the Instagram feed, let alone downloading large files. To ensure the optimal performance, you need to know for sure that your VPN client won’t let you down and will provide a decent download speed.
