How can I start qBittorrent on system boot?

Question

So I've got a bit of an issue trying to get qBittorrent to start on boot. I'm running 16.04.

I've tried to start it by using a crontab @reboot, but this unfortunately didn't work. Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Press the Super key on the Keyboard and search for Startup Applications

Click on Startup Application Icon

Click on the add button: Example picture

Fill the simple startup program form indicating the explicit path of the qBittorrent application (just the way you run it from terminal):
