Looking to access the music from an Android app.

Currently I'm using Jellyfin (since I already use it for other stuff), but it isn't ideal. No option to download entire albums easily, and if the server is offline then I can't even use the music downloaded to my phone.

I have a dedicated music player with all my favorite music for offline listening (fiio x3 and also a pinephone with lollipop)

I also have a Jellyfin server and use finamp on my phone. It isn’t public so I have an always on WireGuard vpn.

For my stereo, I have a raspberry pi hooked up. It runs mpd and mounts the same music directory as Jellyfin using nfs.

The raspberry pi also has an nfc reader and I have nfc cards with printed artwork on them. Tapping them to the reader starts playing that album.
