Tixati is peer-to-peer file-sharing software that utilizes the popular BitTorrent protocol to allow peers to form a cooperative swarm and efficiently download large files.
This free and user-friendly client provides detailed views into key elements of the torrent swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers.
Experience lightning-fast and secure file sharing with this software. Its core features are built for efficiency, from super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms that ensure the fastest downloads to advanced bandwidth throttling and a full DHT implementation. The program also maintains low memory usage and supports magnet links, eliminating the need to download torrent files. For your safety, it provides peer connection encryption and is fully ready for the modern web with IPv6 support.
Advanced bandwidth charting of overall and per-transfer traffic, with a separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding.
Tixati also features Customizable event logging for each download and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm.
This application offers advanced local file management functions, allowing you to move files to a different location while downloads are still in progress. It provides highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including adjustable trading/seeding ratios, transfer, and peer priority settings. The software supports full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) and PEX implementation for trackerless torrents and torrents with trackers, featuring detailed traffic graphs and customizable event logging.
Tixati generally performs well with its default settings. However, optimizing settings can significantly boost download speeds. Since internet connection speeds and latency vary widely, experimentation is key. Feel free to adjust settings to find the optimal configuration for your specific network environment.

- full rewrite of DHT implementation
- completely separate DHT table and peer DB for I2P-only transfers and channels
- much faster DHT searching
- Improved DHT table maintenance routines and refill procedures
- Enhanced DHT table recovery speed and reliability after losing an internet connection.
- Several fixes to IPv6 hole punching in torrent peers
- Improved tracker activation timing within tiered groups
- Fixed tracker announce retry behavior when switching between I2P and the Internet
- enhanced HTTP tracker request headers when client spoofing
- complete review and minor fixes to ut_pex and ut_holepunch extension implementation
- Added new magnet link options in Settings > Transfers > Magnet Links
- updated channel link display formatting functions to handle magnet links with v3.1 hashes
- channel gathering procedures and UI reworked to use a separate I2P-only session when necessary
- Added local interface options Any and Disabled in Settings > Network > Connections
- Added options for secondary I2P-only session keys and rotation interval in Settings > I2P
- Added button to force a complete session reset to Settings > I2P
- showing DHT offline status in the main top bar by using a red icon for the DHT button
- new narrow window compact-mode list views for DHT tables, peer DB, and searches
- More background retries before showing the incoming port bind error dialog
- Fixed several minor problems with event logging when using a language translation file
- Resolved peer online status indicator issues that appeared when language translation files were enabled.
- Fixed minor tree/list view sorting problems on some Linux systems when dealing with invalid UTF-8 names
