In May 2015, Tixati was the fifth most popular torrent client by the audience of Lifehacker. A 2014 review at praised it for its lightweight design. The same year, it received a positive review from Ghacks. In 2012, TorrentFreak listed it among the top 10 μTorrent alternatives. Sharing massive amounts of files is much easier (than creating a lot of Torrent files) and has very little overhead. The ad-free freeware client includes chat rooms, contacts list (with private messages), search windows, browsing of a contact's library and creation of contacts groups (to control access to your library). Fopnu is a decentralized network with the latest advances in P2P technology, pure UDP and with all communications being encrypted. It's visually similar to Tixati but Fopnu is not a torrent client. Since July 20, 2017, the developers of Tixati have released regular updates of a new P2P system (network and client) called Fopnu. The channels also allow for streaming audio and video media. Browsing a specific user's share list is also supported. Users are allowed to optionally share lists of magnet or URL links which are then searchable across all channels a user is joined to. Chatrooms can be either public or secret.

In addition to standard BitTorrent client-sharing functions, Tixati provides integral chatrooms with channel chat as well as private messaging being encrypted. It has standalone and portable versions with each new client version. Tixati is a proprietary Linux and Windows BitTorrent client written in C++.
