Allow Home Users to use the "Skip Intro" feature

Either this or a way to convert home users into managed users would be nice.,

I agree, this is very odd. My “managed user” can skip intro and the “home user” cannot. All of us (my immediate family) are in the same household. I hope this changes or else I will likely convert the latter to the former.

It’s now a few month since the button was introduced and I still couldn’t use it once. I am using an admin account with Plex Pass and two user accounts without. One user account for my girlfriend and one for me. Both are added as home user.
The “Skip Intro” Button doesn’t appear for them since they are not managed users. There is afaik no option to convert the user accounts into managed accounts and I wouldn’t want that because there is no Plex Auth for managed accounts which both user accounts make heavy use of.

So a wonderful feature cannot be used by a paying customer.

Please consider to activate the button for home users. Thanks.

btw. there was a discussion about it which is now closed:

What do you mean by that?

When I would give my gf only access to a managed account she would not be able to login to services like Organizr or Ombi with her Plex account since she would not have her own e-mail/password. So I have to chose if I want the skip intro button or plex auth available.

What I did was creating managed users and set a pin for my profile so they don’t mess up with my admin account.
For Ombi I created the same user as their profile name.

I am still losing Plex auth by that

I think if you add your gf as a Friend (using her non-paid account) and then promote her to Home Users will enable her to use Pass features and authenticate on Ombi.

By the way, forget buggy Ombi and come to the light side of the force. Install Overseerr and you and your users will be way happier.

What do you mean with “add as friend”? She is already a home user and can use pass features like sync or plexamp.

Being just home user is not sufficient to get access to “skip intro”, see the added notice at the top:

Tip! : The ability to skip through television show “intros” requires a Plex Pass subscription for Server admin account and the Plex account used in the player app. (https://support.plex.tv/articles/skip-content/)

Therefore this request to reconsider since managed users are not a sufficient replacement for home users.
