JellyWatch: Jellyfin TV Player

JellyWatch turns your Jellyfin server into a real home cinema on Android TV, Google TV and Fire TV. A beautiful, fast interface built for the big screen and the remote in your hand. KIDS PROFILE

Create a dedicated Kids profile with a colorful home screen, large poster cards, hero banner, and the Fredoka rounded font. Choose from three color themes. A parental PIN locks all exits from Kids mode. Content filtering is handled by your Jellyfin server user policy.

LINKED PROFILES — MULTIPLE SERVERS, ONE HOME SCREEN
