Pocket for Seerr is a native iOS companion for your Overseerr / Jellyseerr / Seerr server, built to make media requests fast and effortless from your phone.
IMPORTANT: This app requires a self-hosted Seerr, Overseerr or Jellyseerr backend server. It does not function as a standalone application.
Connect to your existing Seerr instance and:
• Browse and search your media
Quickly look up movies and TV shows available through your Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby libraries, with the same metadata and posters you see in Seerr on the web.
• Request what you want to watch
Send requests for movies, seasons, or full series in a few taps. See at a glance what’s already available, what’s pending, and what’s been approved or rejected.
• Keep track of request status
View your own request history and status updates in one place so you always know what’s coming to your server next.
• Manage requests on the go (for admins)
If you’re an admin or have request-management permissions in Seerr, you can approve or decline requests directly from Pocket, without opening a browser. Stay on top of your queue from anywhere.
• Built for iOS
Pocket for Seerr is a clean, responsive native app designed to feel at home on iPhone. Fast navigation, familiar patterns, and an experience tuned for quick actions make handling requests painless.
Requirements
Pocket for Seerr is an unofficial client and requires an existing Seerr / Jellyseerr / Overseerr server configured with your media stack (Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby, plus Radarr/Sonarr, etc.).
No third-party accounts, subscriptions, or hosted services are included.
This is how Overseerr should be experienced. The mobile web UI isn’t bad to begin with, but this absolutely superior. Whether or not it has every single feature the web page has, it makes for a much needed QOL improvement for the end users.
Director and Year need to be the first pieces of info shown for any movie

Great app, very performant, simple to set up and it just works, but the web UI for JellySeerr is a bit better at helping you see who directed a movie. It’s almost impossible to tell which movie is the one you’re looking for if you’re not familiar with the poster. I recommend having the director’s name and year of release under any thumbnail, or at the very least at the very top of the info page when you tap on a movie.I’d also recommend showing the rating information that JellySeerr shows on the web interface too. Right now I look around a bit blind in this app. Especially when searching more obscure films.
Great UI but Requests Seem to be Broken
TrollSec
I love the responsiveness of the app and the overall convenience it provides. With that said, the app only worked for about a month, before I ran into issues submitting requests. Anytime I (an admin user) go to submit a movie or show request, I tap the request button but nothing happens and the request never goes through. With the same user, I am able to successfully submit requests from the website. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but am met with the same issue. For reference, I am using Jellyseerr as opposed to Overseerr. Would someone mind reaching out to discuss possible troubleshooting steps? If I can get this issue resolved, I would be happy to change my rating to 5 stars.

Works great and easily a better option over the mobile web app. Hoping to see the custom filters feature added. Would also like to see things like cotton tomatoes ratings and whatnot incorporated.
- Hide unread requests badge for users without managing requests permission
- Remember your previous Instance URL if you get logged out
- Only show issues tab when there are open issues
In case you missed it, the Overseerr and Jellyseerr teams have joined together their codebases into Seerr.
Pocket is compatible with Seerr since day one, and it'll remain compatible with Overseerr and Jellyseerr as well.
