Multi-device support
The multi device support and dedicated development team are what sold me on this player. By far the best option, and completely free!
Feature Request: Smart Downloads / Auto-delete watched episodes
Hi Axl,
Love the app. It has quickly become my go-to client for Jellyfin.
I would love to see a "Smart Downloads" feature added similar to Netflix and other major streaming services:
Auto-delete finished episodes: Once an offline episode finishes playing (or hits the watched mark), the local file automatically deletes to save storage on device.
Auto-download next episode: When connected to Wi-Fi, the app automatically queues and downloads the next unwatched episode in the series to replace it.
Managing local storage manually while travelling or commuting can be a bit tedious, so having an option to toggle this behaviour on would make offline playback seamless.
Thanks for all your hard work on Moonfin!
Cheers,
Duncan

Great but upgrades cause havoc
When it works it’s great. But I found upgrades make massive changes, and sometimes saved media gets lost or storage isn’t freed up correctly requiring a reinstall.
Definitely turn off auto updates, and have a backup plan like VLC when on the go.

So far so good
I think this is probably the best Jellyfin client for iOS. Offers a good amount of customization, though UI feels a bit clunky at times. While I have a few nit picks, I’m definitely staying for now. It would be nice if the media bar on TvOS could be resized and the ability to hide the “On Now” section for IPTV. Also, the IPTV guide prevents you from selecting back to the channel after highlighting a program again on TvOS. A last wish would be adding Apple’s Liquid Glass navigation bar and player.

U
Been loving it way better then jellyfin I dint know on Apple devices jellyfin is so trash it constantly buffered so I switched to this one and now have no issues
Lots of promise, but basics aren’t there
Super unreliable navigation made this unusable for me. I had to use swipes, which I kind of hate. It does look nice, and they got an extra star for an option to hide episode descriptions. Would be even better to be able to hide only unseen episode descriptions.
The Best Jellyfin client
Super smooth and lots of features. The appletv app is also amazing.
Too Good to Ignore.
Simply put this client is one of the best and it’s only getting better. Been using this client for over a month now and I have to say it’s one of the best. Used infuse prior to this one and it’s a breathe of fresh air when it comes to UI.
Does everything you need expect live tv correctly
iPhone/tvOS app works fine for all VOD content. No issues, but as soon as you introduce live tv using an m3u resource an odd thing happens.
If you select your channel and let the spinning circle timeout, no channel will be displayed, just a black screen. If you then select the guide without quitting the video window, you’ll see the live TV in the Preview window. From that Preview window you can then expand it to see it full screen. This is both the same for the iPhone and tvOS.

App is Great & Well Designed and close to being a masterpiece but needs a few Updates
The app is much improved and almost my go to Jellyfin client for me to recommend, but it’s missing a few expected gestures like being able to swipe from off the left side of the screen towards the right onto to the screen in order to trigger a gesture to go back to the previous screen. Also the back button location is in different locations throughout the UI, with a lot of inconsistency. Settings to select things are not sporting properly in “Media Bar > Media Sources.” Also the navigation tray should have a slot for downloads, and send downloads there so that a download does not take up 15% of the screen real-estate. Also Please implement the gesture to touch the top of the iOS bar (where the time and WiFi signals are) in order to scroll to the top of the screen. Also can it would be a huge benefit if when scrolling through media libraries that it show a little indicator (near where the scroll wheel would normally be) that shows what letter/number/symbol the first letter begins with while scrolling through media in order to better know where you approximately are when scrolling quickly. Additionally there should be a way to delete individual downloads, without having to select, “Delete All Downloads” button (personally I would also love a gesture to swipe right-to-left to prompt to delete a download).

Simply the best out there
Does everything you want and more. Literally perfect. Even has some customization options, and it seems every other jellyfin client (even official one and swiftfin) is missing something like PiP. This thing does it all, actually awesome
Dolbyvision & Atmos
The only Jellyfin client that is free that works flawlessly with DolbyVision and Atmos! I’ve tried them all, none have delivered on these two must haves for me. Thanks!
Getting better with every update
With the new engine, HDR now works properly. Emby is super fast. Just hoping for a more traditional Home Screen, easier on the eye.
Works But Definitely Needs Some Polish
I downloaded the app in order to test if it would have core features and make it my go to Jellyfin Client for Myself, friends and family. In my very short usage and testing this is what I’ve noticed.
Pros:
- Has a location for downloads (although I have not yet downloaded anything to test it out).
- Has infinite scrolling for Libraries
- Has support for multiple users, multiple login methods, as well as ability to use PINs for different accounts on the same device.
Cons:
- When a user enters the downloads screen there is no way to return to the previous screen. The user needs to force close the app and reopen the app.
- When a user is watching something and the Administrator closes the session (tested with PIP), the user is left in a state where the screen is black and cannot return to a previous screen. Instead they must force close the app and reopen it.

Almost perfect.
If I could view collections that I’ve put inside other collections this would be the perfect app. For instance, if someone grouped two movies together in a collection, and wanted to add this to another collection that encompasses the entire franchise, they couldn’t. However, this app It’s the closest to the official app by a long shot.

Great Jellyfin client
Latest update is nice but when playing my music library the current song does not show up on the lock screen or on CarPlay like it used to. Just a little fix and we’re good to go.
No soft by last episode air date :(
How does an app like this not support listing/showing TV shows by the last episode air date. Native Jellyfin supports it, this should as well!
Amazing App
This app has been super amazing from the beginning. It gets better and better each release. I am glad I have been here to use the app and can't wait to see the future of it. BingBong is such an amazing person.
Must-Have App
This is the companion app that Jellyfin has wanted for a very long time! I just wonder how many developers are working on it, because they seem to be making big progress at a fast pace!
Best & Most Versatile App EVER
Pretty much a noob to tech stuff but this app is very user friendly- Great job on the UI & UX! Completely changed my Jellyfin experience and now gaming 🤯 If you are looking for a genuine free open source option to keep all your movies, music, images and games +more you love in one fantastic easy app and did I mention it’s FREE! Appreciate all the hard work put into this AMAZEBALLZ project! Thanks team 👏🏽
