Hey Team!

First off! Absolutely LOVE PLEX, have referred sooooo many people to using it!! We all love the premium features that you guys have worked so hard to develop. So thank you!

Feature Suggestion
The ability to add a “description” or “name” to an authorised device.

I know the devices already have names, but if I can describe them or name that would help me keep track (because devices update and names change I don’t want to go to each device every time and change the name).

Example/Why
I have a few devices that I have signed into the PLEX media app, (Apple TV, Chrome Cast, iPhone, Samsung, iPad, Galaxy Tablet, iMacs, Samsung TVs, LG TVs, Safari, Chrome… I’m sure there’s more… ) and I would absolutely LOVE THE ABILITY to give those devices a “description/name” so I can monitor which devices are watching what and which devices are using more/less data whilst streaming.
The internet isn’t the greatest here in Australia so this would help me troubleshoot/control my upload/download settings from individual devices etc.

Do you think thats something we can have in a future update please?
