Jellyfin looks pretty bad on an iPad. Subtitles setting keep getting reset on their own, it doesn’t understand basic keyboard controls (spacebar to pause), the UI is overall tiny. Oftentimes it will forget to save the spot where I finished watching and on the next launch will happily play the movie from beginning.

Was this with the first party Jellyfin app or with Swiftfin?

If it was with the first party app, I'd definitely recommend giving Swiftfin a try.

First party app, yes. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give swiftfin a try.
