Came across this in-development app, that seems really clean. Is available for iOS/MacOS already. It will be available on PlayStore and Fdroid eventually, but there is an APK for those who want to try it out.

How would this handle audiobooks? I've not made the move to Jellyfin yet, as Plex handles all my multimedia needs for now, but I've been keeping an eye on Jellyfin's development with interest.
Not exactly what you're asking, but I can recommend Audiobookshelf.
Not tired myself, but as other comment suggested, Audiobookshelf is by far the superior solution for Audiobooks.
As someone who's tried both Plex and Jellyfin, my suggestion is dont use either. ABS (audiobookshelf) spins up in minutes and is far superior
Chronicle on android is good, there is another one I cant rememer I left after they went subscription model
Jellyfin is so much better man, once setup. It's basically the dream.
