User Reviews

Torrent Control is praised for reliable magnet-link handling and general usefulness after setup, especially with Transmission, and for its competitive edge over alternatives like Remote Torrent Adder. However, users report authentication/login problems (401 errors and qbittorrent login issues) that block torrent additions, plus occasional reliability and compatibility hiccups with certain server setups. Overall it’s a solid, valuable tool with notable caveats around login and occasional instability.

Pros

Generally works well after setup and is easy to use.
Works with popular torrent clients (notably Transmission) and redirects magnet links to the torrent client.
Seen as a must-have / very useful add-on, often preferred over Remote Torrent Adder.
Custom URL matching is a nice feature.

Cons

Authentication/login issues prevent torrent additions (e.g., 401 errors or qbittorrent login problems) reported by multiple users.

Is Torrent Control Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Torrent Control requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Torrent Control is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
