2 apps for iOS? - FriFra - 2024-08-28

Why there are 2 apps for iOS?

Jellyfin: seems not being updated for a long time; all functions including live tv is working
Swiftfin: recently updated; but live tv is not working at all

For FireTV (Android) it is still Jellyfin, or is there also another one?

Jellyfin Mobile is a wrapper for Jellyfin-web while Swiftin is a "native" iOS app.

For Android there is the web-wrapper Jellyfin for Android app and the native Jellyfin for Android TV.

This explains, why the non maintained Jellyfin app is working great, because its only a web view and doesn't need any maintenance.

The native app is far away from being usable. Maybe i give it another try when its stable
