User reviews

Very promising, but not there yet

This could easily become the best Jellyfin client across the Apple ecosystem, but it’s not there yet for a couple of key reasons. One, it lacks a native macOS client and the iPadOS client isn’t amazing on Mac. And secondly, it will not reliably transcode content on poorer internet connections. This makes it basically useless when trying to watch a movie away from home, because the connection is never good enough for a remux (95% of my movie library) and it doesn’t reliably transcode to 1080p even when manually selected (it just buffers forever). If this were fixed it’d be so much more usable.

Excellent app! A true netflix replacement

Overall, this is an excellent and SEAMLESS application. It makes it very simple and easy to add new content to your library and stream that content. There are a few caveats which have left me with a 4 instead of 5 star review. First things first, its a bit buggy. Watching content in the little pop out window and going back to the app is very glitchy. Sometimes it works, other times im stuck on jellytv homepage with audio playing in the background. Also, restarting content is a bear. Sometimes when resuming a movie/tv show the audio will play but again not the video. Changing the resolution does fix this but its a hassle. I also have a few recommended features you should add. 1. Add integration so we can actively monitor downloading content and stop/start downloads or request a different copy. I find my computer downloading viruses from time to time when auto fulfilling request. Being able to stop delete and request a different copy would fix this issue. Its also great for monitoring a movie or show you want to watch in a bit with the family. 2. A in app pop up video player would be super cool. Sometimes you want to watch something while you search for something else to watch. You can already sort of do this but you should aim for a YouTube like form and function, they do it best and you should replicate it. Otherwise, this is the best way to watch and add new content to your server and i STRONGLY recommend this.

Response from developer

Voici une réponse équilibrée, qui remercie sans promettre des fonctions trop précises : Thank you for the detailed review and recommendation! I’m glad JellyTV has made managing, requesting, and watching your library feel simple and seamless. The Picture in Picture and playback-resume issues you described are not the intended experience. Playback stability, video restoration, and transitions between PiP and the main app continue to be improved with each update. Your suggestions around monitoring active downloads, stopping problematic releases, and requesting another version are also very relevant, especially for users with automated media workflows. A more integrated mini-player experience is another area I’d like to improve. Thank you for taking the time to provide such specific feedback. It helps identify exactly where JellyTV still needs work to earn that fifth star !

Приятное, но ещё сырое приложение

Нравится дизайн и отзывчивость приложения, но есть неудобства с выставлением качества воспроизведения – нет запоминания значения и при переходе на следующую серию нужно повторно ставить качество, иначе воспроизведение тормозит.

The best Jellyfin client, but still room to improve!

I would love to see improvements related to handling downloads. More transcoding qualities, incorporating playback of downloads into main library view (download section is not kid friendly!) fix for bug with sidebar / top bar not being persistent, fix for bug where download items load with transcoded file titles before displaying properly every app load. Above sounds worse than it is - hasn’t stopped me from purchasing lifetime family as I believe this will get better and better!

The Best app out there

I can’t express how good this app is compared to the others I tried. You really hit the nail with this app.

In a sense you set the standard for what a jellyfin player should look and feel like.

Only request I would like is live tv.

Thanks again!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the incredible feedback! I’m really glad JellyTV stands out from the other Jellyfin clients you’ve tried and delivers the experience I’m aiming for across Apple devices. Live TV is a highly requested feature and is something I’m considering for a future update. Thanks again for your support and for helping set the direction for JellyTV’s continued development!
