Jellyfin doesn’t have something comparable in the dedicated (OSS) world, but Symfonium takes a Jellyfin connection and is hands down the single best music player I have ever encountered on any platform.
Oh, sorry, I did not mean to imply that there re no players (there are, e.g. Finamp), just nowhere near the same level of polish, features and stability.
Finamp is the official iOS Jellyfin music player. If only the would publish the latest beta version to the App Store! Apparently it’s so much better than the current release, but I refuse to sign up for test flight and the associated Apple terms.
Finamp certainly needs some work but it’s far better than the native Jellyfin application, at least for iOS/iPadOS, I can now listen to music in the background.

Doesn’t finamp provide music player features?
I wish jellyfin would support downloading music out of the box.

My experience with self-hosted apps on my phone are limited. I’ve never used Plex so I never used it’s mobile app.
So thank you for the clarification.

They both suck pretty bad

Hell the Finamp contributors took my suggestion on a way to sort playlists and actually implemented it so I gotta say much props to them.
You’re right about that.
I do sometimes miss PlexAmp, but the native Emby application for music on iOS is pretty decent. Just kinda wish it was decoupled from the main app.
I’d love to try symfonium but I am on iOS.
