It boasts a gorgeous interface, smart organization, and seamless streaming to all your devices. Enjoy live TV, DVR, and shared viewing with Sync Play—all without subscriptions. Freedom meets features!

★★★★☆ Steve Cunnington · Oct 21, 2025

Great app for Android TV, just please add DTS support without having to use an external media player, Plex & Emby can do it, I don't want to go back to Plex, JF convert here!

★★★★★ Sean Pistolkors · Sep 25, 2025

Works great. Anyone who is complaining just doesn't know what they're doing in the slightest. While a Jellyfin server setup isn't necessarily for beginners, you don't need to be a computer wiz to follow some guides and tutorials to get it up and running.

★★☆☆☆ Mario · Oct 24, 2025

Internal player has too many errors, most with subtitles, every third movie does not work at all. Thankfully you can use external players but it doesn't keep your watch status or minutes played and every external player you can find on Fire stick works better than this one.

★★☆☆☆ 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.

★★☆☆☆ flo f · May 25, 2025

If you're lucky, you might be able to use this app. However, it's much worse than the web client for jellyfin which is a bit of mind-boggling. It's full of playback issues with different audio formats and yet not instructing the server to transcode, for which there is no workaround at all. I recommend all my users to use a different app/platform, so as not to need luck.
