    You can watch on pretty much anything! Using a web browser works fine, but I definitely recommend using a dedicated app for a much smoother experience.

    </div></div>## 🍿 Can't find it? Request it!
    
    If there’s a movie or show you’re looking for that isn't in the library yet, you can actually add it yourself using **Jellyseerr**.
    
    ### Option A: Use the Web Portal
    
    This is usually the easiest way. Just sign in with your **Jellyfin login.** 👉 [Open Request System](https://jellyseerr.wedoto.net/)
    
    ### Option B: Requesting via Moonfin (Mobile)
    
    Moonfin is already set up to talk to our request system by default.
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">
    1. Tap on the **search icon**.
    2. Search for the movie or show you’d like to watch.
    3. If we don’t have it yet, the title will show up under the **"Seerr"** section.
    4. Just tap on it and hit **Request**!
    
    </div></div>### Option C: Web Browser
    
    When you log in, the request system should be ready to go. If it asks you to sign in, just use your **Jellyfin account**.
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">
    1. Click or tap the **Requests** button on the navigation bar.
    2. Search for any movie or TV show you’re looking for.
    3. Select the title and hit **Request**.

    </div></div>## ❓ A Few Quick Things
    
    ### 👥 Watching Together
    
    If you want to watch a movie with friends remotely, **SyncPlay** is built right into Moonfin and web browsers. Just tap the **SyncPlay icon** (the little group of people) in the player to start a shared room!
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">---
    
    </div></div>### 🛑 Just a heads up on sharing...
    
    I've got plenty of bandwidth, but it's not exactly infinite!
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">
    - **Please keep your login to yourself.**
    - If you have a friend or family member who wants an account, just let me know—they’re free! I’d much rather give them their own login than have a bunch of people I don't know clogging up the server.

    </div></div>### ⚠️ If things act up
    
    If you run into a broken link, a missing episode, or the quality just looks off:
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">
    - **Got a complaint?** If something isn't working right, just shoot me a message. I'll do my best to fix it as soon as I can.
    
    </div></div>*Keep in mind this is just a fun side project for me, so thanks for being patient if it takes me a bit to get things sorted!*
    
    <div class="container"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr">---
    
    </div></div>### 🎞️ Keeping the library fresh
    
    To keep the server fast and make room for new stuff, I’ll occasionally clear out older or already-watched movies. If something you were planning to watch disappears, just request it again and I'll grab it!
