Came across this in-development app, that seems really clean. Is available for iOS/MacOS already. It will be available on PlayStore and Fdroid eventually, but there is an APK for those who want to try it out.
Github Project: https://github.com/avdept/JellyBoxPlayer
First, good job. Looks very good and feels snappy. So high potential player in the ecosystem. So here a quick feedback after a few minutes using this:
when exiting the "home screen" that contains some albums, trying to get back to the same screen with same content is impossible. Getting back to "albums" screen has different content, alphabetically sorted.
I've been looking for a player with proper "preferred" management and features. This app let's us mark an album as preferred (heart), but not sure what it does here. But what I really miss in a player, is a way to mark preferred individual tracks and then to see all these tracks and be able to use that as a giant playlist that we can play in sequence or randomly. Please consider this feature and your app will be already more featured packed and useful than any other jellyfin player out there.
