Convenience and interface
The program has a clear interface. However, the user needs to spend some time to explore all the features of the application.
The program allows you to download files by hash code without the presence of a torrent. While downloading a movie, you can preview it.
The “highlight” of the application is communication between users, which allows you to agree on the siding of the downloaded file. This is very convenient, because in the absence of a seed in the network, the download speed slows down.
The program includes a fast browser and a convenient player. A scheduler is also available in the application, which allows you to turn off the computer after completing all downloads.
