I want to change the email that is connected to my Plex. I have created a email just for Plex now. I didn’t realize if I wanted to let my family use my Plex that they would all get my personal email and password.

It keeps telling me that email is already used. I know it is now I just created for this purpose. Any other suggestions?

if you are using gmail you can make an account with an email with a `+something@gmail.com` at the end and you get the email in your regular inbox.

So if your email is `Janicaplex@gmail.com` you can just make a plex account for them with `janicaplex+family@gmail.com` if for some reason they don’t want to make their own free Plex account with their own emails

You can share your server with any Plex account you want. [https://support.plex.tv/articles/201105738-creating-and-managing-server-shares/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201105738-creating-and-managing-server-shares/)
