Setup guides for every device

Your Degarmo Media login (Google, Microsoft, or email) works across every app here. On the website, just click the red “Sign in with Degarmo Media” button.

On phone/TV apps, some services can’t show that button, so each guide below has the exact steps for that app. When in doubt, the browser always works.

If you signed up with Google or Microsoft, your account has no password of its own — and it doesn’t need one. Everything on the web works exactly as it does today.

Setting one is optional, and it gives you a second way in that some TV and phone apps prefer. You can add one any time from auth.degarmomedia.com → your profile, or ask the admin to send you a set-password link.

Head to degarmomedia.com and tap Request Access. Once you’re approved you’ll get a welcome email with this guide, and you can sign in everywhere.

The app can’t use the SSO button directly, so you’ll use Quick Connect — it links the app to your normal login in about 30 seconds. You only do this once per device.

1. Install Jellyfin from the App Store / Google Play and open it.
2. When it asks for a server, enter https://watch.degarmomedia.com.
3. On the sign-in screen, tap Use Quick Connect. It shows a 6-digit code — leave it up.
4. In a web browser, go to watch.degarmomedia.com and tap Sign in with Degarmo Media. Log in as normal.
5. Once in, tap your profile picture (top-right) → Quick Connect.
6. Type the 6-digit code → Authorize. Done — the app logs in and stays signed in.

Go to watch.degarmomedia.com, click the red Sign in with Degarmo Media button, and log in. That’s it.

Install the Jellyfin app from your TV’s store, add the server https://watch.degarmomedia.com, and use Quick Connect exactly like the phone steps above — enter the code at watch.degarmomedia.com from your phone or computer.

Plex works a little differently — it doesn’t use the Degarmo Media sign-in. Instead the library is shared to your personal Plex account.

1. Make a free account at plex.tv (or use one you already have) and tell the admin the email on it.
2. You’ll get an invite — accept it, and “Degarmo Media” shows up under your Plex servers.
3. Install Plex on any device, sign into your Plex account, and start watching.

Go to music.degarmomedia.com and sign in with your Degarmo Media account. Full library, playlists, and search right in the browser.

The music server speaks the Subsonic standard, so you can use a great native app instead of the browser:

• iPhone: Amperfy, play:Sub, or substreamer (free on the App Store)
• Android: Symfonium (paid, best-in-class), Tempo, or Ultrasonic (free)

In the app, add a server with:

• Server / URL: https://music.degarmomedia.com
• Your Degarmo Media username & music password

Go to books.degarmomedia.com and sign in with your Degarmo Media account. Kavita reads great on phones, tablets, and computers right in the browser — no app needed. Add it to your home screen for a one-tap shortcut.

Open any book and use the download option to save the EPUB/CBZ, then side-load it to your e-reader or reading app of choice.

1. Install Nextcloud from the App Store / Google Play and open it.
2. Tap Log in, and for the server enter https://cloud.degarmomedia.com.
3. On the login page tap Login with Degarmo Media, sign in as usual, then Grant access.

In the app: menu → Settings → Auto upload. Turn on your Camera folder and enable “Include existing” so your whole camera roll uploads, not just new photos. Add Downloads and Documents the same way to back those up too.

Go to requests.degarmomedia.com. If you’re already signed in to Degarmo Media, it lets you straight through — no second login.

1. At the request portal’s sign-in screen, choose Use Quick Connect. It shows a 6-digit code.
2. Open watch.degarmomedia.com (or your Jellyfin app), tap your profile picture → Quick Connect.
3. Type the code → Authorize. You’re in.
4. Search for the title and hit Request. You’ll get a notification when it’s added — usually pretty quick.

Use requestmusic.degarmomedia.com for albums/artists and requestbooks.degarmomedia.com for books & comics. Same idea — search and request.

On requestmusic.degarmomedia.com, use Connect Spotify to pull in your playlists. We’ll match each song to the library and automatically request anything that’s missing, so your playlists come to life on Degarmo Media.

Apple Music and Amazon Music playlist import are on the way. In the meantime, you can export a playlist from those apps and send the list to the admin, or paste the songs into the music request page.

Got your own MP3/FLAC files? Upload them to your Cloud (cloud.degarmomedia.com) — they’re private to you and available on every device. If you’d like your personal collection added to the shared music library, drop the files in your Cloud and let the admin know.
