Unfortunately, it looks like it is impossible to use Popcorn Time for any non infringing purposes. You can't add other trackers and it seems to filter out torrents that aren't from popular movie/tv piracy release groups. The screenshots and the software's tagline that "they want to make the experience of watching torrent movies as simple as possible" support the argument that they are aiming to satisfy a known source of demand for infringement.

The only case that could be defensible is that Popcorn Time is developed as a proof of concept and is not intended for actual use. I still don't think it would qualify because the use of Popcorn time as a way to stream movies is more "commercially significant" than any other use.

You can use it to stream any torrent. Obviously that doesn't change its primary function but it is a little different to your claim.

how? I didn't see a way to add trackers or magnet links

Drag the torrent you want to add onto the client.
