User Reviews

Jellyfin Mobile on iOS shows a clean UI and solid core streaming but is hampered by stability and connectivity issues: frequent freezes, no background playback, difficult server connections, subtitle problems, and flaky downloads. On the plus side, setup is relatively seamless and streaming from the Jellyfin library works when the app is functioning. Overall, it needs robust background playback, reliability improvements, and clearer onboarding.

Pros

Clean, responsive, and snappy UI.
Seamless server setup and client access.
Core functionality to stream media from the Jellyfin library.
Some users can access their Jellyfin server remotely from the app.

Cons

No background playback; playback stops when the screen sleeps or when the app is in the background.
Frequent playback freezes or stalls and can require reconnecting to the server.
Connection and discovery issues, including local network access prompts and manual server entry.
Subtitle scaling issues and non-responsive subtitle settings.
Offline/download support is unreliable or not available.

Oh man, this is great. I’ve kept DVDs around since I was a kid but obviously, it’s antiquated and most have moved on but I liked them b/c they reminded me of being a kid finding a movie to watch but indeed I needed a modernization. SO! ChatGPT told me about JellyFin so I dug into it, built a nice MNIS Forum MS-01 i9 server with 64GB of memory and 6TB of space. Now all my DVDs reside rent-free in my home JellyFin server. I can stream anywhere in the house or over the internet wherever I am using a VPN link back to my home network. This completes my life. I simply drag an drop films into my SMB share of the server and BOOM, they appear in JellyFin. It even fetches movie poster images to represent them in JellyFin. Try it!

Jellyfin is a good app for movies, but when it comes to listening to music on the app the music stops when I go off of it. My suggestion is they fix it so that when you lock your phone or turns off the music will keep playing like Spotify or Apple Music.
