Native desktop and mobile client for Jellyfin. Contribute to avdept/JellyBoxPlayer development by creating an account on GitHub.

Came across this in-development app, that seems really clean. Is available for iOS/MacOS already. It will be available on PlayStore and Fdroid eventually, but there is an APK for those who want to try it out.

    Jellyfin is awesome, and the ecosystem keeps on growing, and I love that, I love to see the community build awesome app! (I’ve also built a few Jellyfin tools for Linux myself!)

    How would this handle audiobooks? I’ve not made the move to Jellyfin yet, as Plex handles all my multimedia needs for now, but I’ve been keeping an eye on Jellyfin’s development with interest.

      Not exactly what you’re asking, but I can recommend Audiobookshelf.

      As someone who’s tried both Plex and Jellyfin, my suggestion is dont use either. ABS (audiobookshelf) spins up in minutes and is far superior

      Not tired myself, but as other comment suggested, Audiobookshelf is by far the superior solution for Audiobooks.

      Jellyfin is so much better man, once setup. It’s basically the dream.

    Just started toying with Jellyfin for my media after Plex started being freaks about everything. I love PlexAmp though so anything that moves the needle on that is excellent. Tried some other players but currently, my setup only works in network and I’ll need to configure SSL somehow.

    First, good job. Looks very good and feels snappy. So high potential player in the ecosystem. So here a quick feedback after a few minutes using this:

    1. when exiting the “home screen” that contains some albums, trying to get back to the same screen with same content is impossible. Getting back to “albums” screen has different content, alphabetically sorted.

    2. I’ve been looking for a player with proper “preferred” management and features. This app let’s us mark an album as preferred (heart), but not sure what it does here. But what I really miss in a player, is a way to mark preferred individual tracks and then to see all these tracks and be able to use that as a giant playlist that we can play in sequence or randomly. Please consider this feature and your app will be already more featured packed and useful than any other jellyfin player out there.
