Hey everyone! I’ve spent the last several months building “Dorsal”, an iOS-native music player for Jellyfin with the features that I felt I personally wanted. Designed for those who like to see and listen to their music as an album-focused experience.
I’m interested in getting it in your hands to see what you all think. I have my Jellyfin server set up in a pretty basic way so I’m curious to see if it works well for others too! The code is open-source (MIT-licensed), I have a TestFlight open beta, and it is available on the App Store (it does have a price to support development, developer program fees, etc), so you can get it for free or use and support the production release, up to you! Here are the links:
- GitHub: https://github.com/jaredreich/dorsal
- TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/p3cMepSH
- App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dorsal-music/id6762251157 (happy to offer promo codes for early users as well!)
I’m the solo dev, so I’m happy to try and answer any questions! Thanks everyone!
Yes, I only use Navidrome. Navidrome is a very popular media library server. It might garner a wider user base if Dorsal was compatible. I’m not a dev, and I’m not trying to rewrite your app. Just throwing it out there.
Understood, thanks, appreciate the question for sure. I think I will definitely investigate Navidrome and try it out on my home server and see what it takes to pull music from there as well!
