Magnetar

Magnet Link Handler for iOS

Tap a magnet link anywhere on iOS and Magnetar does something useful with it — copy it, open it in your client, or hand it to a Shortcut.

Download Magnetar on the App Store

One tap, your choice

iOS doesn't handle magnet links on its own — tapping one normally does nothing. Magnetar registers as the handler and runs the action you pick.

Free

Copy

Copies the magnet link to your clipboard, ready to paste into any torrent client or web UI.

Pro

Copy & Open URL

Copies the link, then opens a URL you choose — like your Transmission or qBittorrent web UI. Use the {magnet} placeholder to drop the link straight into a template.

Pro

Run a Shortcut

Sends the magnet to an Apple Shortcut as text input, so you can automate whatever comes next.

Whatever you pick, Magnetar always copies the link to your clipboard first — so a magnet is never lost, even if a Pro action isn't set up yet.

How it works

Set it once, then forget it's there until you need it.

1

Pick an action

Choose what Magnetar should do with a magnet link in Settings.

2

Tap a magnet link

Tap any magnet link in Safari, Mail, or any other app — iOS hands it to Magnetar.

3

Stay in the flow

A quick confirmation appears, then you're right back where you were.

Private by design

No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Magnetar has no network code of its own and keeps nothing on any server — everything stays on your device. Read the full privacy policy.

Magnetar Pro

Copy to clipboard is free, forever. Magnetar Pro unlocks Copy & Open URL, Run a Shortcut, and a full history of your tapped links for a one-time $1.99 — with Family Sharing included. See the terms of use, or get in touch with any questions.
