SOLVED Connect to Jellyfin with external app (iOS) failes

[imc67]

Hi,

did anyone succeeded in connecting the iOS Jellyfin app to the server?

Whatever I try, I get a "Could not connect to server" error. Also with the default custom ports like 8096 and 8920.

Solved!

You can reach Jellyfin via web just by the URL, I found out to reach it by app you need to add /jellyfin to the URL!

I found the iOS app lacking (it doesnt automatically switch tracks when locked). This is problematic when driving

I have Infuse Player PRO but it doesnt seem to connect to my Jellyfin instance.

@atrilahiji right, I found out too, as music player it’s useless, it stops as soon as the phone screen goes out. Also build in AirPlay is not available.
