Apple has never been too keen on BitTorrent clients, blocking every single one from ever reaching the App Store. But even if you don’t want to jailbreak your phone, there’s a way around this restriction, and best of all, it’s totally free!

Torrents, the bane of many a record and movie industry boss. While the download technology does have its legitimate uses, it’s hard to argue against the fact that the vast majority of torrents flying around the Internet are of the less-than-legal variety.

After Apple relaxed its App Store restrictions, the first of apps that benefitted from this were Google Voice clients (like GV Connect and GV Mobile+) and just now, a BitTorrent-based torrent managing app called IS Drive has been approved for the App Store.

uMonitor is a uTorrent client app for iPhone and iPod touch which lets you monitor your torrent files being downloaded through uTorrent on a Windows PC or a Mac.

Torrentula is a BitTorrent client for iPhone and iPod Touch which allows you to search and download torrents directly on your phone from some of the top Torrent trackers such as TPB (The Pirate Bay), Mininova, ExtremeNova, Demonoid, SeeQPod and SUMOTorrent.
Torrentula can be downloaded from Cydia for free. You will need to first jailbreak your iPhone before you can install it.
