Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about installation, safety, performance and licensing.

What is RatioBooster?

RatioBooster is a macOS-native tool designed to simulate safe upload activity on private torrent trackers. It helps users maintain healthy ratios without relying on outdated or Windows-only tools like RatioMaster.

Is RatioBooster safe for private trackers?

Yes. RatioBooster uses an advanced stealth engine that mimics real client behavior (qBittorrent / Transmission). It avoids detectable patterns such as unrealistic speed bursts, inconsistent announces, or invalid peer IDs.

Does it work with all private trackers?

RatioBooster is compatible with 99% of private trackers, including those using strict anti-cheat systems. For very niche trackers with unique rules, our support team can provide custom configuration guidance.

Is there a Windows version?

No. RatioBooster is exclusively developed for macOS and optimized for Apple Silicon processors. Windows users typically rely on RatioMaster or other older tools.

Do I need to keep my Mac awake?

Yes, your Mac needs to remain powered and connected to the Internet while RatioBooster runs. Sleep mode will pause the simulation.

How realistic is the upload simulation?

The upload engine is designed to reproduce natural network behavior through micro-variations, random shaping, and timing-based patterns. This avoids the “flat line” behavior that legacy tools are known for.

Can my account get banned?

No tool can guarantee a 0% risk, but RatioBooster is engineered to minimize every detectable pattern. You are very unlikely to get banned if you use decent presets (ie: do not go 1To per second, try to stay close to the stats of your torrent client)

How does licensing work?

Each purchase includes a lifetime license bound to a single machine. You can deactivate your license at any time and move it to a new Mac if needed.

Do updates cost extra?

No. All updates — including major versions and anti-detection improvements — are included free of charge with your one-time purchase.

I didn’t receive my download link. What should I do?

Check your spam folder first. If the email is missing, contact us at support.ratiobooster@proton.me and we will resend your secure download link.

Can I request new features?

Absolutely. Our development is community-driven — you can submit feature ideas by email, and the most requested ones are implemented in future updates.
