  1. 5/5AV1 issues/support

    Love the app so far, but I’ve found that the app does not like to run any media that is AV1. I’m not sure if that is just a client thing or an issue on my part because I downloaded AV1 media, but I hope to see this app thrive because it 100% has the potential to! (I won’t give 4 stars cuz idk if the AV1 thing is a jellyfin or app thing haha)

  2. 5/5Best Jellyfin Client

    Easily the best Jellyfin client out there that I’ve seen, and I’ve tried a lot of them. Really nice UI, the developer is constantly improving the app, and it’s very full featured. It also just works, and has very smooth playback and no lagging issues which I’ve had with other clients.

  3. 5/5Great Design and Experience

    This is so far my favorite Jellyfin client for both iOS and tvOS. The design is great, and fits really nicely with Apple design paradigms. The features and polish it has already make it more than enough to replace Swiftfin and Streamyfin on my devices, but I would love to see Live TV support in the future :)

  4. 5/5My go-to Jellyfin app

    I’m super impressed with the apps (iOS and tvOS). Hands down better UI/UX over the Plex app and other Jellyfin apps. Playback is smooth and just works. Has so many features in the app as well so I don’t have to go to the web interface.

  5. 5/5Keep it up

    I’ve been looking for an app exactly like this. It is clean, works well with seer requests, and just works as you’d expect. My only worry is since there are so many players out there, the devs might get discouraged and move on. Message to devs: please keep working on this app. You already have such a clean app. It has potential to be one of the biggest jellyfin players. It’s already my favorite by far.
