Fourteen years, 317,000 lines of code, and over 23,000 developer-hours!

That is what it takes to develop a high-quality app like Tixati.

Yet, unlike other torrent apps:
  • Tixati is spyware-free and malware-free
  • NO annoying you with endless advertisements
  • NO hijacking your CPU to mine bitcoins
  • NO backroom deals to sell your information and data
We take pride in creating the best software possible, and we respect our users.

But we need your help to continue this work, now more than ever.

Producing a major app is an expensive, time-consuming, and often very frustrating task, especially for an independent developer.

Here's how you can give something back and help make sure development continues:
  • Contributions are accepted via any major credit-card using PayPal Secure Payments.
  • Send some crypto-currency to help cover hosting and bandwidth expenses.  Our addresses can always be found at the top-right corner of the Tixati home page.
  • Spread the word, tell your friends about our software.

Tixati version 3.17 is now available. This release contains several important updates:
  • added workarounds for torrents that contain inconsistent padding structures
  • reduced RAM usage when there is a backlog of local download pieces waiting to save due to a slow storage device
  • download piece creation is now limited if over 18 pieces in same torrent are pending save to disk
  • download piece creation is limited if over 100 pieces total in all torrents are pending save to disk
  • fixed problems with right-click tray menu positioning on Windows builds
  • when using OS Defaults color scheme, rich-text views now show expected background
  • pasting multiline text into chat on Linux/GTK builds is now formatted correctly
  • fixed character spacing problems when rendering bold text in tree/list views on Windows builds
  • fixed problems copying text from a chat room, usernames are now encoded correctly and displayed without hash string
  • the HTTPS layer that powers the WebUI has had several minor fixes to prevent premature connection abort when transfering larger files
  • added gzip/deflate/brotli response compression to WebUI connections
  • shortcut Ctrl-V now works in more places in the program to paste magnets links, and will now automatically flip to transfers view
  • better handling of low-memory conditions and out-of-memory process abort
  • updated IP location tables
  • other minor visual fixes in the GUI
A major update to the framework is in progress. This will include a new tree/list view control to replace the less-reliable common controls used in Windows builds. On Linux builds, a transition from GTK2 to GTK3 is underway and testing will begin soon.

Please stay tuned.

Thanks for using Tixati!
