Ratings and reviews

While the app has it's issues, i have not had any issues playing my media through it. thanks for all the hard work. I read over on Reddit that they are adding a bunch of stuff and fising a low of issues. There is only like one person coding this and they are doing it in their spare time for our benefit. thanks for a great open and free app. And for a server that allows you to host on your own network without phoning home!

I really liked jellyfin, but I had too many technical issues and I just don't have time to troubleshoot them all. I love that it's FOSS, though. This particular app was OK but not great. Most notably for me, I had issues with Chromecast glitching or just not working at all. Another inconvenience is that bt headphones can't pause it.

I love Jellyfin but the Android TV app is kind of a disaster. It constantly errors out when loading a video on Chromecast with Google TV, forcing me to force close the app. The interface is also pretty terrible. The 'All Items' screen is awkward to get to by default, and having it scroll horizontally instead of vertically is even more awkward.
