Why we expect it: Its clear privacy focus and broad server support make it a thoughtful, well-described player for self-hosting music fans.

In short

Discophile is a native iPhone player for music and audiobooks stored on your own server, including Subsonic, Navidrome, Jellyfin and Audiobookshelf. It is aimed at people who already have a personal library and want offline playback, a 10-band equalizer and synced lyrics. One thing that stands out: its built-in assistant builds playlists from your library, and every change waits for your confirmation.
