## What it is
Findroid is a third-party native Android client for Jellyfin that lets users browse and play movies and series with a fully native interface. It supports direct play of many video, audio, and subtitle codecs via ExoPlayer, plus offline downloads.

## Use cases
- watch my Jellyfin movies and shows on Android with a native app
- download episodes from Jellyfin for offline viewing
- play media from my Jellyfin server without transcoding
- browse my Jellyfin library on my phone
- a better Android client for Jellyfin than the official app

## When to choose
- you use Jellyfin and want a native, fast Android interface
- your media is directly playable on your device and you don't need transcoding
- you want offline downloads of your Jellyfin media

## When to avoid
- you need transcoding of unsupported formats on the server side
- you need an iOS or desktop client
- you need a fully mature, bug-free experience as the project is still in early stages
