Cinema for Apple TV · Available now

Made for the
best seat in the house.

A couch-first, native tvOS experience. Cinema-quality browsing, direct play, and your entire library — always ready.

After2AM Cinema featured on the Apple TV home screen with its cinematic top shelf artwork

Hero-driven browsing

A full-bleed backdrop tracks your focused tile — title, year, rating, genres, and synopsis always visible, never a modal.

Direct play, with an escape hatch

H.264, HEVC, AC3, E-AC3, and multichannel Dolby play natively. If audio drops out with HomePods in your Apple TV audio setup, enable HLS Override in the transport bar.

Picks up where you left off

Resume, Continue Watching, Up Next — synced with your Jellyfin server. Auto-advances through episodes until the end of a season.

Your library, instantly

Movies, shows, and artwork are cached on your Apple TV, so the app opens quickly and browsing stays smooth while your library refreshes in the background.

Native player, real audio controls

Apple’s native player brings familiar playback controls, audio tracks, and subtitles. Cinema Audio adds its own listening presets for HLS playback on tvOS 27; Apple’s system audio features depend on your tvOS version and audio output.

Honors your Jellyfin settings

Audio & subtitle language preferences, remembered per-series track choices, autoplay, and Latest-row filters — read straight from your account and applied automatically.

After2AM Cinema home screen with Ballerina hero banner, Continue Watching and Next Up rows

The library you know,
the interface it deserves.

A focus-driven hero banner, landscape Continue Watching cards with progress bars, and portrait poster rows — all built from your actual Jellyfin libraries.

Doctor Who series detail screen with season picker and episode list

Every season.
Every episode.

Series open into a full season-and-episode browser. A compact season picker, episode thumbnails with progress bars, runtimes, and synopses — one screen, one button to play.

Black Widow detail screen with circular cast portrait row

Cast & Crew,
always with you.

Circular portrait rows for actors, directors, and writers — pulled from Jellyfin's People metadata, character names and roles included.

More to enjoy on Apple TV

Made for movie night.

From the opening scene to the closing credits, thoughtful details make your library feel right at home.

Skip straight to the story

Skip intros with a click of your remote. An option to skip intros automatically is coming in a future Apple TV update. Cinema supports intro skipping through the Intro Skipper plugin on your Jellyfin server.

Requires Intro Skipper and Jellyfin 10.10 or later.
The credits keep rolling

Find your next film with Jellyfin’s “More like this” recommendations while the credits play in the corner. Return to full screen whenever you like.

“More like this” is vastly improved in the latest Jellyfin release, with far more relevant recommendations.
One more episode?

Up Next brings in the next episode’s artwork and a countdown while the current one keeps playing. Play now, stop, or let autoplay carry you through the season.
Sound that suits the hour

Cinema Audio offers Reduce Loud Sounds, a gentler Night Mode for late viewing, and Dynamic Boost for a little more bass and sparkle.

Available during HLS playback on tvOS 27 or later.
Follow a familiar face

Open an actor, director, or writer’s profile to read their biography and browse their other titles in your library. A new discovery is just a portrait away.
A collection worth exploring

Browse by genre, revisit a favourite collection in release order, and discover more films from the same series right on a movie’s detail page.
