I migrated to Jellyfin from Plex several months ago and I’ve been struggling to get a good experience on my my Apple TV which is where I watch most of my content. I’ve been using the native Swiftfin app and I’m sorry but it’s awful. Lots of serious usability issues and there hasn’t been a release in over 4 months. I can’t anymore with it.

Gave infuse a try and it seems a lot more polished but it’s a subscription model and I don’t do software subscriptions, especially for something that’s accessing my local data. Not opposed to buying outright but it’s a bit steep at $94. I’ll gladly spend that if it’s worth it, but has anyone noticed any serious issues with Infuse that should make me steer away?

    It doesn’t work well enough.

    • on deck shows things at random. Shows that haven’t been watched/updated in years showing at the top of the list for no reason. It’s different every time the app is launched.

    • doesn’t automatically refresh. Several shows may have been updated/new episodes added while the app is in the background and they don’t show up unless I force quit and relaunch

    • watched flag on episodes not visible when viewing list of episodes. I have no idea what episode I’m up to without clicking into each one.

    • now for some reason it doesn’t save my server info and I have to re-enter/log in every single time.

    If it weren’t for these bugs I’d be fine with it.
