Connect qBittorrent

  1. Its address, with the port: http://192.168.1.20:8080 by default, or your reverse proxy's address. More on addresses.
  2. User + password: the same login as its web interface.
  3. Test it before you save. If it fails, Cupola tells you why.

Away from home, Cupola uses your VPN or reverse proxy: how that works.

Questions

Is there a qBittorrent app for iPhone and Android?

Yes: Cupola, free and open source, connects to qBittorrent directly. It is a public TestFlight beta on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and an APK on Android. See install.

What does Cupola sign in to qBittorrent with?

User + password: the same login as its web interface. Cupola keeps it in your device's secure storage.

How do I manage my home server from my phone when I am away?

With the route you already have: a VPN such as WireGuard or Tailscale, or a reverse proxy. Give a connection a second address for when you are out, and Cupola uses whichever one answers.

My services are behind a reverse proxy with a self-signed certificate. Will it work?

Yes. Cupola asks once before trusting a certificate, then pins it to that host. Cloudflare Access tokens, proxy passwords and custom headers work too.
