Bug report - library > artist > no music
Running finer on tvOS Apple 4kTV, am unable to access music via artist button in library. Selecting an artist from the list brings up a play and shuffle button but shows no music and launches nothing. Accessing music via albums works fine. Running jellyfin on a synology nas. Same app on iOS works ok just the tvOS version that’s problematic.

Add a “Stop” button to explicitly stop active playback streams
Please consider adding a dedicated “Stop” button to the player controls to allow users to explicitly stop the current playback stream. Currently, when the application is closed while music is still playing, the server-side playback session can not be properly terminated. The stream continues running on the Jellyfin server. As a result, the Playback Reporting plugin continues recording playback time, causing the reported play duration to be significantly longer than the actual listening time. A “Stop” button would allow users to manually terminate the playback session before closing the application, ensuring that the Jellyfin server correctly stops the stream. Thank you for considering this improvement.

Carplay startup time takes long
I wonder what causes Finer to take some time to start when its closed and will be launched by icon in CarPlay. Is there a way to optimize it?

Alphabetical order of downloaded albums
"Finer" is now almost perfect; the only thing missing is the ability to sort the downloaded albums alphabetically.

Song Continues Playing After an Interruption
Whenever using the Finer app I sometimes either get a call or use Siri which interrupts the playback. But when I end the interruption it still stays paused. This can be a bit of a headache when driving and needing to look at your screen to hit play or when your phone is far away from you. It would be great if the song started to play after the interruption stops.

v1.43.0 (125) breaks Finer IOS
After updating to v1.43.0, Finer is very broken. The home tab shows only Recent Playlists. The Artists tab is empty with or without Load Full List The Albums tab is empty The Songs tab is empty The Genres tab is empty The Playlists tab is the only populated tab. I have to find another app until this is fixed.

Move the search button
The current location of the search button requires going back at least one or more times to access it again. I would recommend moving it to the top of the sidebar, mirroring the way Apple Music app is, so that the search function is always available from anywhere in the app.

Local network access not working
After updating to 1.43.0 access to local network doesn’t work even though it’s enabled in privacy settings. When disabling access a prompt to let the app access the local network does not appear

CarPlay not loading additional items when scrolling
Scrolling down Artists, Albums, or Playlists always stops before getting far. I really can’t access my library in CarPlay and I have to use the IOS app instead.

Playback fails silently on Jellyfin 12.0
Cannot play media since upgrading to Jellyfin 12.0-rc2. Browsing works fine, but playback gets stuck at 0:00 seconds. Setting true in system.xml of Jellyfin is a workaround. The setting defaults to false from version 12.0.

Finer Not using Full Width of Screen
Hi, I really enjoy your project! I noticed that the app does not use the full width of my phone’s screen. Here is a screenshot, with an added outline to show the screen border: iPhone 12 Pro

Artist view on macos: don't understand how to scroll albums
For me it’s unclear why albums in the artist view are presented in a single row. I don’t understand how to scroll??? A grid would be much easier and see all albums of an artist at a glance. Thanks

Returning to Search Results
[IOS] When looking at Search Results, if I click on a search result and then click on the back arrow, I expect to go back to the Search Results. Instead it takes me to the home screen. This is a frustrating navigation flow.

artist name is missing sometimes
Hi. Really enjoying the iOS app so far! Noticed an annoying issue. In some places artist name is displayed as Unknown or completely missing, although that info is definitely available, check the attached screenshots. Also, other Jellyfin clients don’t have such issue.

CarPlay: Missing Shuffle buttons
I always make use of the shuffle all/favorites when playing music. I find this sorely missing from CarPlay, resulting in me opening the phone to start a shuffle and then control from the car. Would love to see the shuffle buttons in the carplay UI

Public repo mirror
I see in your FAQ about being hesitant to open source due to flood of AI spam. I came looking for a repo to donate for such a beautifully crafted app. If you would instead consider keeping your existing processes but keep a public read only repo mirror, I would love to do so knowing the code is open source, and support you keeping it so.

Playlist downloading not working
New user here with the latest Jellyfin on a raspberry pi 4 with have 5K albums and 68K songs. I have some playlists which have 100+ tracks. While connected via Wifi I can do a long-press on the playlist and select Download. A few songs download successfully but then the next set of downloading tracks shows busy and then display red circle with ! mark. I have not been able to fully download any of my playlists. Does Finer automatically retry downloading if there is a network error? Thank you Permeable
