IPhone users in the EU will now be able to download torrent apps

European iPhone users can now download torrent apps from the alternative AltStore PAL, whose catalog has been expanded with several exclusive apps not available in the official App Store – AppleiTorrent and qBitControl, as well as the dating app PeopleDrop, The Verge reports.

ITorrent is a torrent client for iPhone or iPad that allows you to download torrents without having to remove software restrictions for Apple products (jailbreak). The qBitControl application, in turn, is a remote client for qBittorrent that allows you to manage torrents from iOS devices. PeopleDrop is a dating platform that helps you find people nearby offline.

Also, the UTM SE application appeared in AltStore PAL. This is an iOS emulator for Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems. Interestingly, UTM SE became available in the App Store, having received approval from Apple in early June.

Let us remind you that Apple has banned torrents in its official application store, citing the fact that they are “often used in violation of the rights of third parties.” However, the coming into force of the EU Digital Markets Act (DMA) has loosened Apple’s control over its store, giving iOS users in the EU more freedom and choice in installing apps.
