Server Version#: 1.32.6.7557  
Player Version#: 8.26

The Plex IOS app on iPhone XR does not play music. It looks like it ‘starts’, however, the music does not progress and it does not actually play.

I have seen the same problem on two iPhones. The Apple TV Plex app plays music from the same server without issues.

I have the same issue:

iOS Plex App cannot play downloaded music without a lof of delay to first look for an internet connection. Then once you play downloaded music the app pauses and never plays. This defeats the purpose of downloading content to have an all time music player based on Plex. Is it possible to **disconnect the Plex App from having to rely on a web connection to work properly**?
