Many users would find having a Watch Together feature in Plex Experience a very welcome addition. There are many people who live or travel far away from their SO’s or friends and family, and having a way to watch with these people near and dear to you would be amazing. I personally have a few friend…

Watch Together is the only way that I’m able to watch movies with my family in 2 different languages so that my parents can natively understand them. They’re from India and this feature has completely changed how fully they are able to experience so many movies with us. Plex - PLEASE do not take awa…

Kinda crazy you guys are removing this. Why bother even sending this alert out? Just make a working replacement for the new experience and just let people try it? How hard is it really to get watch together working? An indie team can throw it together with random github releases so how is it even re…

My wife and I use Watch Together almost every day to connect with our best friends in another state. Having to rely on coordinating timestamps without it will likely make us do it hardly ever. Not sure if possible but I’ll do whatever I can to sideload all clients and version lock my server to preve…

I can’t claim that I will use the feature often but my partner is travelling tomorrow for a month and I was just explaining how this feature means we can watch our shows together still, despite that.

Lifetime Plex Pass user here. This is a critical feature for my geographically distant family, and I’m blocking all app updates as a result until it’s reimplemented in a future app update. As far as I’m concerned this is a regression bug.

Seriously upset at the Plex dev team for dropping this feature. I paid for a lifetime membership so I could own my content and play it locally or with friends. Now what: I get less features all for a flashy new frontend? No. Roll it back. I’m serious. A frontend / app experience shouldn’t degrade …

It’s insane to me that they are trying to remove such a useful feature, but at the same time not surprising watching how the Plex organization has been treating their existing users. I won’t be buying any Plex passes for the users on my server which would have been more licenses purchased than I hav…

My husband and I use watch together quite a bit. Bummer Plex plans to remove this feature, I was planning to also watch together with friends and family for ‘movie night’ when we live in different cities. This definitely put a squash on that. The social features we are being corralled into using …

Doing away with Watch Together is a terrible decision and one that should be reconsidered, if this goes through I and I know many other will move away from Plex for a tool that has this feature.
