About
Reeltone turns your Jellyfin server into a proper iPhone music player — background playback that keeps going when you lock the phone, offline downloads, lock-screen and Control Center controls, AirPlay, and synced lyrics.
Point it at your server, sign in, and your whole library is in your pocket.
WHAT YOU GET
• True background audio — music keeps playing when you leave the app or lock your phone. No more silence when the screen turns off.
• Lock screen & Control Center — play, pause, skip, and scrub without opening the app. Album art on your lock screen.
• Offline downloads — save albums and tracks and play them with no connection, on a plane or underground.
• Synced lyrics — sing along line by line, pulled from your server or fetched automatically from LRCLIB when your server has none.
• AirPlay — send audio to HomePod, Apple TV, or any AirPlay speaker.
• Fast, native browsing — artists, albums, playlists, and search, with a library that loads instantly and works offline.
• A retro cassette-deck look — tape reels that spin as you listen and a waveform you can scrub.
REQUIREMENTS
Reeltone connects to your own Jellyfin server (jellyfin.org) — a free, open-source media server you host yourself. You'll need a server and an account on it. For lyrics, Jellyfin 10.9 or newer is recommended.
Reeltone is an independent client and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Jellyfin project.

What's New in Reeltone
1.1
August 10, 2026
Make Reeltone yours — and fill the gaps in your library. • Skins: restyle the whole app with a theme you install yourself — colours, fonts, even the tape reels. Build one in your browser at reeltone.iagocavalcante.com and open it straight into the app. • Music requests: search for an album your server doesn't have, tap request, and follow it as it arrives. Connect Lidarr in Settings to switch this on. • Longer battery life while playing in the background — far fewer wake-ups with the screen off, and Now Playing stops polling once you look away.
