Jellyfin Mobile

Doesn’t allow offline download

Got a media server up and running to stream my PC’s movie files on my iPhone when I’m in bed in like 10 mins. Jellyfin is fantastic. High bitrate 4k video is playing smoothly on my iPhone 13 Pro

When using other player apps i can direct stream vp9, but with this app it transcodes to h264 for no reason.

Won’t continue a music playlist when phone is locked. It gets to the end of the song and then you have to unlock the phone to start the next song. Sure you can blame Apple for breaking the app, but other apps have gotten around this. I don’t know how much work fixing this would be, but the problem really limits the usability of the app. Other apps that work with Jellyfin server have the same problem.

When I press on CC to get subtitles, it is show twice on the screen. Very annoying. When I press CC to Off, the subtitles do not disappear

How to hide the tab bar at the bottom?

This is by far the best Media Center on earth, donate to the team, they are excellent!!! Thank you for such great software. I love you!… please make an Apple TV version and you will be complete!

Thanks for your hard work, but since you seem to be migrating users to a newer app, may I suggest: 1. Rename this app to “Jellyfin (retired)” since it hasn’t been updated in years. 2. Change the app description to point users to the new Jellyfin video app (“SwiftFin iOS”) and the (unofficial??) FinTunes app, that are much more robust than this app. Thanks again!

The developers that maintain this open source application deserve big kudos, as it is a lot of work to keep up with Apple’s ever moving goal posts just so we can use Jellyfin on iOS. Massive hat tip to you guys for keeping this updated so I can watch all my content on my phone. I would love some ability to download videos to my device and have some sort of local cache to watch videos when I’m on the go but I know that would probably be difficult to implement. Thanks again for keeping this app going!

Wish I had known about Jellyfin sooner. Hats off to the developers for their hard work for others enjoyment. Great system and deployment.
