iTorrent switches to mobile data during download

kaskurkada commented 4 years ago

Second time in a row, after upgrading to version 1.8, once the download completed (some 6 GB file), I was informed of minimum mobile data remaining. Looked through mobile data settings - for sure, 470 MB was on iTorrent count. Previously I already had same issue - wifi is in place, the signal is very strong, download speed was some 29-39 MB/s, wifi was never off. Once finished - iTorrent used mobile data, quite a lot. Not sure how is this possible, because it is the only program that behaves like this. It now happened just because I went fresh ios install with new Unc0ver jailbreak and forgot to switch mobile data off for iTorrent, based on previous experience.

Iphone 6s Plus, 13.5, jailbroken with Unc0ver 5.01. Same was happening while on 13.4.1 jailbroken with checkra1n, also 13.5 jailbroken with checkra1n - basically it does not related to ios version or jailbreak tool.

Hmm... I don't know how is it possible, iTorrent just a normal iOS app, that don't use any private APIs, so iOS should manage its behaviour like any other app. I think the only way to avoid such problem is disabling cellular data inside Settings app. Later I'll try to add cellular disabling setting inside app.

Hi Daniil,

Ok, this would be a solution, though the behaviour of the app is very strange. I just now easily recreated issue:

Mobile data (again eaten, I reseted it before download):

Try disabling Wi-Fi Assist in Cellular settings. Maybe the problem is with your Wi-Fi connection and iOS switches to cellular from time to time during download.

The wifi assist already was disabled. And wifi is in perfect condition - must be some other reason

Happened with me as well. Had to disable cellular for iTorrent from iOS settings.

Thank you for feedback, hopefully it can be fixed. It is not just my imagination at this point.

I've made some researches about it and I found nothing about disabling cellular data within app. iOS should switch connection types by it self and developers have no power to control it. The only thing in theory I could make is permanent checking of connection type, and if cellular is active just pause all the torrent session, but I'm afraid it could add more problems that profits. So if you have limits on your cellular connection, it's better to disable it in iOS Settings app. I'll close that issue for now, if someone will find any valuable information about how it could be solved, feel free to reopen it.
