Always wanted a mobile native app to manage Jellyfin? Discover JellyWatch - an Android app with “Arr” integration, real-time stats, and a killer “Watch Pass” feature.
Plex users have Plex Dash - a beautiful, native mobile app to see who is streaming, kill bandwidth-hogging streams, and check server health from anywhere. Jellyfin admins? We’ve been stuck trying to load the full web dashboard in a mobile browser, fumbling with a desktop web UI on a 6-inch screen just to kill a stuck transcode. There’s also Tautulli which has had great adoption among Plex users.

Yeah, it’s pretty slimey actually. They have a github, but there’s no issues or nothing. It’s just a readme, probably just so they can have the Github logo in their footer. To someone not looking closely, they’ll see the logo and think JellyWatch is open source. Disgusting tactics.
Thoughts on the JellyWatch privacy policy which seems very clearly stated & cut? Does not alleviate concerns? I mean we all use a LOT of closed source software everyday, who tells you they WILL sell your data vs stating clearly they will not. Like Microsoft & entire family of apps, Google & all it’s services, etc etc…
Privacy policies change. Most closed source services ans apps don’t have a GitHub repo. I’ve seen some, they’re usually for github issues. But they’re all slimey and confuse users into thinking they’re open source. Not a good look. I would not trust a company that does things like this. The goal is to support open source. Which is why Jellyfin > Plex
Fair enough, all solid points.
BTW - I am not the dev of JellyWatch.
I would be surprised if they were on Lemmy. But it’s a cool app all things considered. Just wish they weren’t… Doing that stuff lol. Good share either way.
