ReelFin vs Swiftly Player

ReelFin turns your Jellyfin library into a native experience on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Browse your movies and shows, find an episode, and pick up right where you left off. ReelFin connects to your own server, so your media library stays under your control. PLAYBACK MADE FOR APPLE • Playback with Apple technologies and Direct Play when your media and device are compatible. • Resume, skipping, seeking, and progress saved to your Jellyfin account. • Selection of available audio tracks and subtitles. • Home, Library, and Search help you quickly find the right title. • Quick Connect on Apple TV lets you approve sign-in from another device. YOUR SERVER, YOUR MEDIA You need a reachable Jellyfin server and an account on that server. ReelFin does not include, provide, or sell movies or shows. Playback formats and available features depend on your media, server, and device. ReelFin is an independent client and is not affiliated with the Jellyfin project.

Swiftly plays the films on your Jellyfin server just as they are. Most apps have the server rebuild a film while you're watching. Swiftly leaves it alone — and tells you beforehand that it will. If something ever does have to be converted, you'll see which part of the file was responsible. Picture in Picture is built in, so a film can carry on in the corner while you get on with something else. RESUME ON THIS DEVICE Something playing on the Apple TV turns up as a button on your iPhone. One tap and it carries on here, at the second you left it. It works in every direction between iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV. SERVERS AND ACCOUNTS Add more than one Jellyfin, stay signed in to all of them, and switch from your profile without typing a password again. DOWNLOADS Take episodes and films with you. Swiftly downloads the original file, so what you watch offline is the same quality as what you stream. MORE • Request what your server doesn't have yet, through Seerr, without leaving the app • Skip Intro and Skip Credits, via the Jellyfin plugin • People pages: tap a name in the cast for a biography and everything of theirs you own • Your home screen in your order — rows off, rows moved, genres as rows or as chips • Custom headers per server, for Jellyfin behind Cloudflare Access, Authelia, Authentik or Pangolin • Collections and each library, straight from the Movies and Shows title • Sign in with a Quick Connect code instead of a password • Lock screen and headphone controls, plus background audio • Your audio and subtitle language, chosen once • Next episode on its own, sleep timer, playback speed • Watchlist, filters and search • English and German Swiftly brings no films of its own — it simply shows what's already on your server. And it collects nothing: no analytics, no advertising, no account with us. Your viewing position goes to your server and nowhere else. You'll need a Jellyfin server of your own, 10.8 or newer, on a secure (https) address, and an iPhone or iPad with iOS 18. Uses VLCKit and libVLC by VideoLAN under the LGPL 2.1 or later.
