  • Just a shell for the web interface.

    I see no point of having this app. The UI looks the same as the web interface, so the feature is the same. But since it is not a web browser, it loses the benefits of Safari, like zooming (the text look small) and there is no playback control UI in the notification are or on the Lock Screen.

    You’d better just use Safari and the web interface than using this app.

  • To uncle jr

    Hai uncle cool app
  • Can’t connect from client

    On the set up stage, the client app on iPad asks for IP address. I go into the dashboard on the server, and use the IP address noted there….and nothing. I just get error messages saying the server could not be found.
  • Excellent

    This is the really good app.
    Everything is free on this app.
  • Won’t connect 😫

    I have wasted so much time trying to get this app to connect to my server, all my other devices (androids and Firesticks ) connect without any issues. Please fix this issue!
  • Endless, pointless transcoding

    When using other player apps i can direct stream vp9, but with this app it transcodes to h264 for no reason.
  • Seems like a good idea but

    This app won’t connect to my server either from remote or on the same lan. Using Plex and have no issues with connecting. Also live tv not working with hd home run guide. Tried to fix but devs point to using a different app for this functionality, won’t be able to use until both items fixed. Advertised support for hd home runs but it’s only supported by using different software. Kodi and Plex both do not suffer this. Would love to see this software step up to being functional on what it advertises support for. That and getting the iOS app to connect would be cool too

  • Finally a stable, usable jellyfin client

    I’ve had issues with playback on several other Jellyfin apps, but Finamp has been flawless. The UI is bare bones, but intuitive and perfectly functional, which are pluses for me. I’d happily chip in to support further development here!
  • Needs offline capabilities

    This app is off to a solid start, but really does need offline/download capabilities. It will be pretty handicapped until that happens.

    Love the direction that Jellyfish is going though, and I’m excited to stick with them.
  • Works okay, no Chromecast

    I searched quite a bit on the web and keep seeing Jellyfin as an alternative to plex without a paywall. The server program itself is fine, but I was pulled into thinking the app could stream to Chromecast. They even have the share icon in the top right, but after more digging I see that it doesn’t actually work. If they could make it cast it would be a good alternative to plex or emby. As of yet, I guess I’ll keep looking.
