While looking for some alternatives to Swiftfin and Infuse, I've found these:

Reefy - mentioned here / GitHub
Fork of Swiftfin as the author was fed up with the lack of updates.
$8.99 one-time IAP

JellyTV - Homepage
£1.99/month, £29.99/year (looks like there's a discounted option at £14.99/year), or £39.99 for life.

The maths is not quite mathing here as the for-life IAP is £39.99, the familiy upgrade is another £39.99 which makes £79.98 total

but the "family-for-life" option is £89.99 for some reason. (Makes you wonder whether this was vibe-coded.)

Neptune - Homepage
Currently in beta and you need to ask on their Discord for the Testflight link.

Has anyone tried any of these?

Okay so they just re-wrote the commit history?

And it seems like the app is just an LLM-powered Liquid Glass UI refresh with some LLM-powered bug fixes. I get that Claude tokens are expensive, so I guess it's fine to charge money from the people that are happy about these changes. But it also feels a bit discrediting towards the Swiftfin authors...
