Looking for a better way to manage qBittorrent on your Mac? Lizard is a native macOS application that provides a fast, intuitive graphical interface for qbittorrent-nox and remote qBittorrent servers.
Unlike the standard Web UI, Lizard is built exclusively for macOS. It feels like a real Mac application, integrates seamlessly with the system, and makes managing torrents significantly more comfortable — without replacing your existing qBittorrent server.
Whether you’re running qbittorrent-nox on a NAS, home server, Raspberry Pi, VPS, or another computer, Lizard gives you complete control from a polished native interface.
Why Choose Lizard?
Native macOS Experience
Designed specifically for macOS with support for Dark Mode, native menus, keyboard shortcuts, notifications, and the latest macOS releases, including Sonoma, Sequoia, and newer.
Manage Multiple qBittorrent Servers
Connect to multiple remote qBittorrent instances and switch between them instantly. Perfect for users managing downloads across several servers or locations — a capability missing from the standard Web UI.
Organize with Categories & Tags
Keep even large torrent libraries organized using categories and tags. Quickly filter, search, and manage your torrents with a clean, native interface.
Advanced Torrent Management
Access the tools experienced users rely on: manage trackers, peers, and speed limits, and view detailed torrent information in real time.
Real-Time Monitoring
Monitor torrent status, transfer rates, ratios, availability, peer connections, and other statistics through responsive, easy-to-read panels.
Clean, Focused Interface
Lizard eliminates the limitations of a browser-based interface with a native design that is faster to navigate, easier to use, and optimized for everyday torrent management.
Go Further with Lizard+
Path Mapping & Reveal in Finder
Open downloaded files right from Lizard, even when qBittorrent runs on a remote server, a NAS, or in Docker. Tell Lizard where the server’s download folders are on your Mac, then double-click a torrent or choose “Show in Finder” to go straight to its files.
Advanced Add Options
Set the save path, category, tags, and file priorities before a torrent is added, and pick exactly which files to download. Every torrent lands in the right place from the start.
File Prioritization
Set priorities for individual files or any selection of files in a torrent. Download what matters first and skip what you don’t need.
Automatic Source Torrent Cleanup
Optionally remove local .torrent files automatically after they’re successfully sent to qBittorrent — or if the operation is cancelled — keeping your Downloads folder clean.
Built for Power Users. Designed for macOS.
Lizard is not a BitTorrent client. It is a dedicated native GUI for qBittorrent, built for users who want a better way to control their existing qBittorrent servers from macOS.
If you use qbittorrent-nox, Lizard provides the desktop experience you’ve always wanted — native, elegant, powerful, and built exclusively for the Mac.
