Comments on Jellyfin for Android TV for Android

★★★★☆ Namita Prasad · Sep 1, 2024
Actually this app is really awesome, but there is a small issue with the video slider in Android TV when I am moving slider forward or backward the slider automatically goes to the starting position of the movie plz try to fix this issue as soon as possible, and I have used emby as well the UI of emby is awesome, but I want this type of UI in open source software like jellyfin. I hope jellyfin team will work to make their free project better than other competitors like emby...

★★★★☆ Paulo Rodolfo Mariani Bittencourt · Apr 23, 2026
Jellyfin is excellent but the official app for Android TV is a bit lackluster. There are limited options for displaying your media compared to the web client, and you can't delete media from the app. The WebOS app is a bit better.
★☆☆☆☆ Jamie Baillie · Mar 14, 2025
Absolutely horrible app I have it installed on an android box and u can't even turn off subtitles with it, and it always displays subtitles and there is no option to turn them off absolutely horrible app that is buggy as can be. I even told it to use the external player, and it still displays the subtitles. Absolutely horrible app don't waste ur time with it! March 14, 2024. I would give it 0 stars if I could!
★★☆☆☆ Alexei Nunez · Aug 9, 2024
Removing libel super in the latest 0.17 released was a huge downgrade. Now users have to transcode if they don't want to use an external player which. External players don't send any playback info back to Jellyfin.
★★☆☆☆ James Allen · Jun 14, 2025
This app feels dated. App theme does not follow server side like web UI. No theme music feature. Please update app to same as web UI.
