It is a very good client for jellyfin. Being able to quickly download my jellyfin library with subtitles is a game changer. Native integration with jelly seer is also very good. One app to do most of what I need when managing my media library

Very happy with the implementation of this app. Jellyseerr built in is a game changer fory users.
★★★★☆Ionut Pintescu· Jun 12, 2025
The app looks really nice, and it's obvious a lot of thought was put in the design. The only problem I noticed so far is when opening offline downloads, the app just crashes.
★★★★☆Thiago S· Jul 28, 2026
It's a promising app, has many more cool features than the official Jellyfin app for Android, and has an overall better experience too. There are a few adjustments and fixes that need to be done, like the video becoming purple sometimes. I would suggest also that the media from the Jellyfin"Music Videos" category could be played in the background and as audio playlists, like YouTube music does. And there could be a button for enabling/disabling subtitles quicker.

Doesn't support some free ddns. Can't connect to my jellyfin through a ddns provided by synology: *.myds.me. Will update the review once fixed

Downloads keep crashing, there is not logs to show you why, if app closes the downloads reset. I tried giving it all permission and giving it ability to run in background and still crashed at this point I am downloading one episode a time when other versions can do that.

Seasons are presented awfully. If there are three seasons. You have to press on season 1 to see that there are more seasons.
★★☆☆☆Peter Alfieri· Nov 13, 2024
Does not work on nVidia Shield Pro and TiVo Stream 4K. I've gotten this to install on my Android Phone, and it looks like it could be a serious competitor to the native Jellyfin app given all of its features, however, if this can't run on the one of the best, if not THE Best streaming devices of the last 6 years the Shield Pro, this is a serious set-back. Hopefully the developer fixes this problem, and I'd raise my rating. Have a great day.

The bugs on offline video playback are atrocious and for some reason it just hides the download from the file explorer, the performance between browsing the downloaded files is bad, the player often crashes or is VERY unresponsive, just use the original for this purpose
