WHAT YOU NEED Bloom works with Jellyfin 10.11 or later, free server software you run on your own computer or NAS.

PRICING Free to download and free to watch: your movies and shows come straight from your own server, which costs me nothing. Bloom Accounts, server sync and household invites run on a database and an email service I pay for every month, so they're a subscription: $0.99 a month or $9.99 a year for your whole household. People you invite don't pay. Payment is charged to your Apple Account and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings. If you already bought Bloom, it stays fully yours.
