Server Version#: v.1.41.5.9522-a96edc606 (February 21, 2025)
Player Version#: iOS Version 2025.10.2
Hi,
iPhone auto updated Plex app and it seems to have stopped being functional. Opened the app and it wants to onboard me (again).
I start the app, allow it post to my Notifications Summary, See other devices on the network. I sign in, and am hit with “Pick your Favourite Libraries” screen <blank - should it list available servers?> and a continue button
Nothing to choose, no way to progress
• Checked my Plex Server - it’s running the latest version v.1.41.5.9522-a96edc606 (February 21, 2025)
• Remote is properly configured (see it on the server - see it on the non-updated iPad, SONOS, LG TV, etc.) - so just the updated app on iOS)
• I’m on the same WiFi SSID
I shut down browser privacy extensions, just in case - no difference.
• Plex is now only for movies.
• PlexAMP is for music
No mention of this change in the app description

Centralized media libraries in a dedicated tab
Option to favorite libraries
Easier access to power-user features
More exciting updates to come!
Not sure, if my in-app purchase of Airplay is transferable or gone, though.
Ensure that the right audio library has been selected in Plex, if there are more than one. You can switch on the Home page, on the upper, left corner, or in the Settings - Source.
Playlists live on the server. Thus, they are available to Plexamp as well.
Library tab, Playlists.
All the movies I play through the app are very low… If I play them through the browser then the volume is fine… It was after the last update to the app. I am the only one who uses it so if I have to run an app I use emby ,then on my PC I use the browser until there is a fix
The new android app on my Samsung tablet does not show any of my libraries - and I see no setting to add them. I am running the latest Plex Server on a WD PR2100; and it all worked perfectly until I tried it yesterday…anyone with a solution?
I remember when I used PlexAMP briefly a few years ago and discovered its terrible defect of deciding that the user wanted to hear the same few songs that had already been played, and prioritizing in a useless loop only a few of the thousands of songs in my collection.
Does anyone know if that bug/feature has been changed? I want to play ALL of my songs on random, not just the same few that the system arbitrarily decided were the only ones I wanted to hear.
