Ultimate Media Player vs Jellyboxd

Ultimate Media Player plays the media you already own. Point it at your own Jellyfin or Plex server, or an SMB, FTP or WebDAV share, and it builds a browsable library with artwork, cast, ratings and subtitles — with resume positions that follow you between your iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. Ultimate Media Player includes no content of its own and streams nothing from us. Everything you watch comes from a server or share that you control.

Jellyboxd is a cinematic client for your own Jellyfin server. Big artwork, a clean, immersive design and smooth native playback bring the movies and TV shows of your personal library, the way a streaming service would. • Home with featured titles and "Continue Watching" • Movies, series, seasons and episodes with posters, plots and details • Fast search across your whole library • Native playback with Picture in Picture and background audio • Choose the streaming quality to save data • Multiple servers and accounts, with instant switching • Favorites and watched state synced with your server • English and Italian, following your phone's language (or your choice in Settings) • Your credentials stay in the device Keychain; no analytics, no tracking You need your own Jellyfin server (or access to one). Jellyboxd does not provide any content. Jellyboxd is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Jellyfin project. Jellyfin is a trademark of its respective owners.
