My brother has purchased a LG TV with Plex installed and noticed in the Plex app settings you can auto skip intros and credits with a Plex Pass.  
How can I do this on my Apple TV? let me guess!! it’s not supported!!

You can’t (yet). Those features are still missing on the iOS/tvOS clients.

So if I add users to library access they will not have access to certian features? Do I need to add them as friends?  
I don’t really want anyone else to know what I am watching…

Some features are only available if a user has their own Plex Pass membership or is a member of a Plex Home for which the home owner has a Plex Pass.

IC, ok they don’t have a Plex pass, so what is the difference between adding them as a friend or adding just library access? or are they both the same thing?

You can have a friend without sharing anything. But there’s a third classification and that is to have someone in your Plex Home. Think of this as friend on steroids. It’s recommended to only have this be close friends as it’s a bit less secure.

The plus side to it though is that they will have access to all your Plex Pass features including the skip intros/credit features.

Make that family members / people living with you… and who don’t have a server of their own.

There’s no technical verification if users actually live with you. But given how the concept of „Plex Home“ works, I wouldn’t use it to give other users access to your Plex Pass features.
