What is the point on this when the OG Jellyfin has an android app?

It is a good question, I had the same when I first heard about it.

I think lots of people keep both installed:

  • the default one is good for managing server related things
  • this one is good for daily use, especially for any other users you might have

What I liked:

  • feels much faster and smoother
  • UI is nice and clean
  • download manager works nicely, as another user mentioned. You don’t need to open a separate app to play the files
That’s exactly my usecase. I was on a travel and used the offline-mode. Really easy to stay on progress without network.
