Before you get too excited, let me clarify that Transmission RPC, which is now available as a universal download in the App Store, is not a native iOS BitTorrent client i.e you can’t use it to download torrents directly on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch but instead, it is a remote control for the popular OS X BitTorrent client Transmission (via AppAdvice).
Using the app lets users control their torrent downloads on the Transmission server through an iOS friendly interface. Transmission RPC supports multiple servers and can also open torrent links automatically.
Below is a complete list of features supported:
