## What is Pocket for Seerr?

Pocket for Seerr is a native iOS companion for your Overseerr / Jellyseerr / Seerr server, built to make media requests fast and effortless from your phone.

IMPORTANT: This app requires a self-hosted Seerr, Overseerr or Jellyseerr backend server. It does not function as a standalone application.

Connect to your existing Seerr instance and:

• Browse and search your media
Quickly look up movies and TV shows available through your Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby libraries, with the same metadata and posters you see in Seerr on the web.

• Request what you want to watch
Send requests for movies, seasons, or full series in a few taps. See at a glance what’s already available, what’s pending, and what’s been approved or rejected.

• Keep track of request status
View your own request history and status updates in one place so you always know what’s coming to your server next.

• Manage requests on the go (for admins)
If you’re an admin or have request-management permissions in Seerr, you can approve or decline requests directly from Pocket, without opening a browser. Stay on top of your queue from anywhere.

• Built for iOS
Pocket for Seerr is a clean, responsive native app designed to feel at home on iPhone. Fast navigation, familiar patterns, and an experience tuned for quick actions make handling requests painless.

Requirements

Pocket for Seerr is an unofficial client and requires an existing Seerr / Jellyseerr / Overseerr server configured with your media stack (Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby, plus Radarr/Sonarr, etc.).
No third-party accounts, subscriptions, or hosted services are included.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-05-30*

Once I found the option to allow me to change destinations, this became my favorite app.

### 5/5 — Best Seerr Companion App

*2026-05-07*

This app is amazing! Love how it just WORKS. Only request it to show Rotten Tomatoes scores on Movie/Show details.

### 4/5 — Great App but missing a couple of features to be perfect

*2026-04-28*

The app ui is intuitive and it works flawlessly for me, definitely something that was missing and much needed, hats off to the dev for taking the time to do this.

A couple of features that are must haves for me that I would love to see:

1. Push notifications. The app says this feature is coming. I can’t wait, this would make my life a lot easier.

2. This is niche but, adding a server doesn’t support additional login pages. I expose my server to the internet through a cloudflare tunnel with a url on a domain I own, this requires one cloudflare google login before it shows the plex login. This unfortunately is not supported and times out, meaning I can’t access seerr outside of my local network unless I have a vpn on my phone connection. It would be great if it allowed me to login to that through the browser popup when I enter the URL

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-04-25*

Best app for managing my library and requests. Wife loves it and prefers it to the web Seerr experience.

### 5/5 — Very nice app

*2026-04-10, version 1.4*

It’s stable, it’s fast, setup is minimal - awesome.

### 5/5 — Amazing work

*2026-03-29*

App feels clean, is fast, and works without issue after setup. Great work on making it easy for me to request things I want to watch ahead of time

### 3/5 — Great UI but Requests Seem to be Broken

*2026-02-23*

I love the responsiveness of the app and the overall convenience it provides. With that said, the app only worked for about a month, before I ran into issues submitting requests. Anytime I (an admin user) go to submit a movie or show request, I tap the request button but nothing happens and the request never goes through. With the same user, I am able to successfully submit requests from the website. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but am met with the same issue. For reference, I am using Jellyseerr as opposed to Overseerr. Would someone mind reaching out to discuss possible troubleshooting steps? If I can get this issue resolved, I would be happy to change my rating to 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Seerr/Overseerr

*2026-02-17, version 1.3*

This app handles both seer and overseer with absolute ease and no hidden costs. Absolutely recommend this to anyone who has a media stack

### 5/5 — Landscape iPadOS support please add

*2026-02-08, version 1.3*

Landscape iPadOS support please add

### 5/5 — Great app for an indie dev

*2026-01-23*

Having developed a couple apps, it’s clear the amount of work and dedication to this was massive. You should add a tip jar to support development!
