Almost perfect

Finally an actually good jellyfin client. The ONLY thing missing is the option to use the native keyboard or somehow bring in the Siri Remote search. Please please please add in Siri voice I hate typing with that keyboard.

keyboard - not a good experience

Tried this on tvOS and not to a good start. Keyboard is not the standard apple keyboard. For someone who connects to apple tv via iphone to input username/password with remote keyboard it won’t work. that’s a deal breaker for me especially when using secure passwords that are stored in password manager.

Response from developer

I'd suggest using quick connect for Jellyfin. For Plex, sign in is done via a QR code and you sign in with another device.

Great work

Excellent substitute for plex.

Terrible experience

Apple TV app is terrible. UI glitches, app freezes and skips during UI navigation, search function doesn’t work 90% of the time, you can’t search with Siri via the remote. I paid $10 for this and it’s a complete waste of money. Do not buy this.

Response from developer

It'd be helpful if you could make a detailed bug report including how to reproduce these issues either via GitHub or email (contact@plezy.app).

Great Jellyfin Client

I tried a lot of Jellyfin Clients on iOS, but I think Plezy is the best one I have used so far.

Works great, better than the default Jellyfin iOS client imo

I specifically use this with Jellyfin and the only issue I have is when scrubbing it takes 2 to 3 attempts at sliding the progress bar to allow me to start scrubbing through the show. If I just click to spot I want to go to it works fine tho and is extremely fast. Please fix this one issue. It would also be nice if yall added Seerr integration. Thanks.

Ce que plex devrait être

L’application est vraiment génial, elle corrige des problèmes que j’ai remonter a plex depuis maintenant 2 ans…
Par exemple, le faites de pouvoir conserver une langue donnée lors du visionnage d’une série…
Il manque encore quelques fonction comme la watchlist et quelques bugs, mais le dev est réactif.
Ne passez pas a coté et soutenez le dev en achetant l’app

Awesome

Best Plex App, Best Jellyfin App.
ATV version works flawless if you have dual Homepods as audio device compared to the official jellyfin app.
Since version 2.0 if you wanted to switch from plex to jellyfin but couldn’t because of the clients, this is the answer.
Works great with both kinds of servers.
Very active development.

Bester Client den ich kenne!

Ganz ehrlich, ich war lange Zeit auf der Suche nach einem gut funktionierendem, funktionsreichen und vor allem HÜBSCHEN Client. Seit einer Weile bin ich das nicht mehr, da Plezy wirklich einfach nur perfekt ist. Ich finde es auch wirklich großartig und ehrenwert, dass die App open-source ist.

Danke für deine Arbeit!🙏🏼

Awesome!

I am more than impressed with Plezy. Way better than the official Plex app, and much simpler than the Infuse app. Really great work. Keep it up, thank you!

Getting Amazing, Fast!

Top of wishlist is to be able to view movies & TV series by thumb (landscape.jpg) instead of poster in Jellyfin servers. Fantastic though in general.

Update: Blown away by how fast the tvOS app has been created. That said could do with some polish - seems to be a bug where clicking the central remote button causes the highlighted item to jump back to the previous item.

Still would love to view movies and TV thumbs instead of posters (Jellyfin) :D

Nice and fast

I’ve been using Infuse as an alternative for a few years, but Plezy is lightening fast. Interface is clean and simple. Only things I miss seeing are in-app gestures for volume and brightness (sliding your finger vertically on the left side of the screen for brightness, and the right side for volume).

Picture in Picture (PiP) not working. Screen freezes or turns black.

Very good

A great app that I’m pleased to see now supports Jellyfin! There’s a slight issue at the moment where it won’t load Collections but the developer says that will be fixed in the next update.

I would love to see a Liquid Glass UI update, just to give it that native feel but it’s not a problem at all.

Good. Faster than the official Plex app.

I like the new transcoding option. Helps a lot with high bitrate remuxes on slower devices. Wish there was an audio boost option though. Some movies with multichannel audio play quiet on stereo speakers.

Gives other players a run for their money

I was waiting for some features to appear, and now I would say it is a great alternative to Plex player.

Better than Plex’s app

Better layout, plays content without issue. Worth the $

Great alternative to the the Plex client!!!

This is a fantastic app! It solve two problems that have plagued the Plex client since the most recent Plex Server updates. First, the Live TV function works with iOS and iPad OS. I thought this was a lost cause, since the issue has been reported by multiple people to Plex for over 8 months and there is no consistent fix. This app brings this function back! The second this is performance. The current Plex current seems slow to load content, even on a fast network and all the settings properly set. This used to work well before the most recent Plex server upgrades. In any case, the performance is excellent and the loading is very fast. Overall, the app works well and is easy to use. I took a chance buying the app hoping that it would be an improvement over the regular Plex app and, sure enough, it was. Thanks for developing this and keeping it updated. In addition to an iPad, I use this on my Apple Vision Pro. It would be nice if it was a native AVP app, but it seems to work just fine, especially when I need Live TV. For 3D movies and full AVP support I use ScreenLit.
