Android: Change Artwork popover component is flaky, difficult to scroll

Server Version#: 1.43.2.10687
Player Version#: 2026.10.1

Device: Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (model SM-S938U1)

OS: version 16

One UI: version 8.5

Issue:

While attempting to browse and select a new image in the “Change Artwork” popover: the screen will awkwardly shift vertically while trying to scroll through the horizontal lists, the list position of the images will be suddenly (and frequently) reset to the beginning, and images may be selected by accident while attempting to scroll through the list (without an explicit selection being made).

The experience is frustrating and nearly impossible to use.

Reproduction Steps:

  1. Open the Plex app on Android
  2. Navigate to any movie/show, tap to open the
  3. Tap the “More” button to open “More Actions” popover
  4. Tap “Manage”
  5. Tap “Change Artwork”
  6. Attempt to browse/scroll through the artwork for any section (Posters, Title Art, etc.)

It’s been fixed in the upcoming 2026.11.0 version that’s currently in beta.

[iOS][Android] Horizontally swiping on Manage Artwork screen causes vertical scrolling and can close the menu.

I appreciate the quick reply. I installed the beta version to test out the fix and, while it is certainly an improvement, it is still a janky and uncomfortable experience.
