Yeah can anyone recommend me a good android torrent client? I'm kind of new to this and I'm looking for something with decent privacy and ideally free. Also should I be using a VPN? I used flud years ago but somehow don't like it now. Never bothered with VPN before but that was years ago and maybe I need one now? Any ideas appreciated.

Set the filter for Android and Open Source:
Yes, use a VPN.
But…
A way better option is to use a seedbox or dedicated server for torrents, and an sftp client to get media to your phone or stream media from your box using Jellyfin.
