Swiftfin

Please implement the feature enables to play vertical UI

I think the UI is really nice and a big upgrade from the official JellyFin app. However, there seems to be a bug in the latest version that keeps selecting the commentary track from a video file with several tracks. I can change it to the other tracks, but I can’t seem to select the main track.

I prefer this app compared to the Jellyfin one, because, somehow it does not require server transcoding for my files. The other app causes the server to transcode and my CPU can’t keep up with the load.

Great app! Thank you, developers, for your great work! However, no end user cares that this is written in Swift; and being that we’re on iOS, having that as part of the name is silly. Please rename the app “Jellyfin” or “Jellyfin V” or “Jellyfin Video” (since there seems to be a completely separate app for music). Thanks for listening!

Neat idea but poorly implemented. Can’t find the server on a network that other apps have no problem accessing.

I find this app to be better than the main Jellyfin application; it is generally more stable, and works more efficiently, and has a more usable interface. I was happy to see an update to it today (June 11) but now it doesn’t see my local JF server at all. The main app still works, implying that something has been broken in this new update regarding server discovery.

Why is there an option to change audio type but not video quality? App is very nice, but the player is much too simplified in my opinion; it doesn’t really take advantage of what Jellyfin has to offer.

Gesture bar doesn’t go away when playing video. This is a problem when watching in a dark room. This was fixed on GitHub in late 2023, but the dev hasn’t updated the App Store version.

This app needs some work. Will not play video unless experimental force direct play is turned on. If this is off, video resolution looks terrible, if it even plays. I have a brand new Apple TV 4K red generation running latest tvOS. This app does not play tru-hd 7.1, Atmos or Dolby vision. If the movie is in 7.1 you will hear no sound. Must change to 5.1 format. Also don’t have your Apple TV set to Dolby vision. If you do, this app will not work correctly and colors will be messed up. Make sure your Apple TV is set to 4K SDR. Would be nice to have ability to add folders without having to go into media and then my folder. Add this to the home screen Tried the Infuse Player by another developer and it works with all the above without any issues. Only give this app two stars because it’s free. Hoping you can fix the issues mentioned above

keyword was! newest updated locked all my users out of the app :(
