> [see also](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jellify) _Jellify_ is a free and open source music player for the [Jellyfin Media Server](https://jellyfin.org/). Built with [React Native](https://reactnative.dev/), it is available for both iOS and Android. > _Jellify_ requires a connection to a [Jellyfin Media Server](https://jellyfin.org/) server to work. [See also](https://jellyfin.org/docs/) Showcasing the artwork of your library, it has a user interface congruent to what _the big guys_ do. _Jellify_ also provides algorithmic curation of your music (not that you have to use _Jellify_ that way). It's designed to be lightweight, and scale to even the largest of music libraries (...like 100K tracks large). ### Background This app was designed with me and my dad in mind. I wanted us to have a sleek, one stop shop for live recordings of bands we like (read: the Grateful Dead). The UI was designed so that we'd find it instantly familiar and useful. CarPlay / Android Auto support was also a must for us, as we both use CarPlay religiously. ### Recommended Additions These projects are **not** required to use _Jellify_, but are recommended by us to enrich your Jellyfin music experience! - [Apple Music Plugin](https://github.com/lyarenei/jellyfin-plugin-itunes) - Really good at fetching missing artist artwork for obscure / less popular artists - [LrcLib Plugin](https://repo.jellyfin.org/files/plugin/manifest.json) - Available in the default plugins catalog - Really good at fetching song lyrics - [Jellyfin Rewind](https://github.com/Chaphasilor/jellyfin-rewind) - Gives a recap of your year in music listening similar to other music streaming services - [A hosted version is provided here](https://jellyfin-rewind.chaphasilor.xyz/) - [Spotify Playlist Imports](https://github.com/Viperinius/jellyfin-plugin-spotify-import) - Imports a user's Spotify playlists into Jellyfin - Can run as a scheduled task - [AudioMuse-AI](https://github.com/NeptuneHub/AudioMuse-AI) and it's [associated plugin](https://github.com/NeptuneHub/audiomuse-ai-plugin) - Performs sonic analysis on your music - Creates "smart playlists" based on tempo and mood - [Jellyfin-RPC](https://github.com/Radiicall/jellyfin-rpc) - Displays the content you're currently playing on Discord ## Downloading ### Android [](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cosmonautical.jellify) #### Direct .APK Download Head to [releases](https://github.com/Jellify-Music/App/releases) to download the required .APK directly.
