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
