Jellyamp — Desktop audio client for Jellyfin
Jellyamp is a free Windows application that streams music from a Jellyfin media server to your desktop. It provides a simple, user-friendly interface for browsing and listening to tracks stored on a remote Jellyfin instance, making it easy to access your personal music collection without needing a web browser.
Primary capabilities
- Plays music directly from a Jellyfin server with gapless and smooth playback
- Lets you assemble and edit playlists on the fly
- Fast navigation through albums, artists, and tracks with an uncluttered UI
- Supports a wide range of audio file types and focuses on efficient performance
Technology and compatibility
Built with modern web frameworks, Jellyamp is developed as a desktop app using Electron and Vue. That combination delivers a responsive interface optimized for Windows, while handling the local decoding and streaming tasks so playback remains reliable and high quality.
Typical user workflow
Start the app, connect it to your Jellyfin account or server address, then browse your library by artist, album, or genre. You can queue songs, save custom playlists, and control playback without leaving the desktop. The design aims to keep common actions one or two clicks away.
Alternate option
- Blockify — Free: a lightweight alternative that focuses on streamlined playback and an uncluttered interface, suitable if you prefer a different desktop client to access your Jellyfin-hosted music.
