the regular jellyfin app is just a web wrapper, at least it behaves like and looks like it, as for advantages, it’s the little things, like offline playback, double tap to skip like in youtube etc.
I’ve been using findroid. And honestly this has captured my opinions exactly. If you’re using the official Jellyfin app, I’d urge you to try Findroid. It does many things very well.
What are the advantages over the regular jellyfin app? Seems like it maybe does less?

Findroid does less, but what it does, it does better (imo).
In addition, Findroid supports jumoog’s Intro Skipper and Trickplay, which isn’t available in Jellyfin Android.
The major missing feature is transcoding support.
