### 3/5 — Gut aber mit Mängeln

*2026-05-10*

Funktioniert soweit wie beschrieben, allerdings nicht mit ogg Dateien. Größtes Problem: Der Jellyfin Server glaubt die App könnte es und transcodiert daher nicht.  Auch wird das Abspielen nicht korrekt an den Server übertragen. Bitte fixen!

### 3/5 — Solid but…

*2026-01-31*

App is stable and works but would like a view for albums etc that have been downloaded to watch!

### 1/5 — Not playing any media

*2025-12-23*

I use a Apple Watch Series 7, Play button doesn’t work it plays no file also not when it’s downloaded on the watch

### 1/5 — Not usable

*2025-09-24*

Loads jellyfin library but unable to get songs to play. Even downloaded songs don’t play.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect, some quirks though

*2025-09-19*

like hitting play does nothing when no headphones are connected. So you have to connect your AirPods first and can’t use the auto switching.

### 5/5 — Thank You

*2025-07-16*

I was looking for this for a long time. Thank you.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled that our app was exactly what you were looking for. This is truly a passion project of mine, and many exciting updates with improvements are coming soon. Your feedback makes me very happy!
