Audiofin is a fast, focused audiobook player for iPhone and iPad that connects straight to your own Jellyfin server — no middleman, no tracking.
100% free — no ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases
iPhone & iPad • App Store coming soon
If you self-host Jellyfin — the free, open-source media server — you already own your audiobook library. Audiofin gives it the player it deserves: a native SwiftUI app built only for audiobooks, with none of the clutter of a general media client. Point it at your server, sign in with your Jellyfin account, and listen.
Features
Built for daily listening — from the commute to the last chapter before sleep.

Background playback with full lock-screen and Control Center controls.
Your library, downloads, and a Listen Now shelf right on the car screen — with chapter controls.

Drift off to a countdown or the end of the chapter — with an optional daily schedule.

Your place in every book is remembered, and a Continue Listening shelf brings you right back.

How it works
If your Jellyfin server is running, you’re three steps from your first chapter.
Point Audiofin at your Jellyfin server, e.g. https://jellyfin.example.com — custom ports and self-signed certificates you trust work fine.
Use your regular Jellyfin username and password. Your session token is stored securely in the iOS Keychain.
Pick a book and press play — online, or offline with downloads. Your position follows you everywhere.
FAQ
A Jellyfin media server with an audiobook library, and an iPhone or iPad. Jellyfin is free, open-source software you run yourself — on a home server, a NAS, or a machine you rent. Audiofin is the player; your server holds the books.
Yes — Audiofin is a universal app that runs natively on iPad. The interface is designed with iPhone in mind, so it’s not yet tailored to the larger screen, but everything works.
Yes — completely free, with no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.
Tap the Join the TestFlight Beta button at the top of the page. You’ll need Apple’s free TestFlight app installed; it lets you run pre-release builds and send feedback.
Yes. Download individual chapters or whole books, and they play with no connection to your server at all — positions and played-status are kept locally and sync back when you reconnect.

MP3, M4A/M4B, AAC, FLAC, ALAC, WAV, AIFF, CAF, Ogg Vorbis, and Opus play natively. For anything else, Audiofin falls back to Jellyfin’s built-in transcoding.
