JellyPod/README.md

# jellyPod
Control Jellyfin music playback from your Pebble with an iPod-like interface.

# Supported Phone Clients
`jellyPod` requires a Jellyfin client to be running on your phone to handle playback. Not all clients support all features of `jellyPod`. Tested clients are detailed below.

If a client is multi-platform and a platform isn't listed, it does **NOT** mean it is unsupported, but rather just untested.
## Legend

- ⚠️ = usable (functional with missing features/bugs detailed below)
- ⛔ = unsupported (does not work well or at all with `jellyPod`)

# Opinionated Design Philosophy
I made `jellyPod` to suite my tastes. Everything listed below is non-negotiable and will not be changed.
- No playlist support
    - Playlists encourage poor listening habits that lead to portions of your library being ignored while others are overplayed
- True sequential playback
    - Your music continues to play in order even after you exhaust the tracks on the selected album and by the current artist
    - The next album is chosen by release date and the next artist is chosen alphanumerically
- Shuffle at every scope
    - You can easily shuffle artists, albums (from a given artist), or all tracks
    - Shuffle buttons for single discographies/albums are hidden: scroll up to find them
        - This makes playing sequentially the default
- Multi-client/device support
    - `jellyPod` is not just a remote for your phone
    - The client to control is determined by your most recently active session under your Jellyfin user
- Classic design
    - Inspired by the 4th generation iPod
- NONE of this application, nor any art/assets used in its creation, was generated by AI
