Change “preferred server“ on Plex app

Not sure if I have the correct forum? I have the Plex app to download it on several media streaming devices like Roku and a few smart TVs.

When first install the app, it asked me to choose a “preferred server“. How can I switch the server without deleting the app and reinstalling it to go through the initial set up?

You also can’t search content across “all servers” in the latest app update anymore so the default server is pretty important to be able to change.

Server Version#:
Player Version#:

I know for the Roku, if you dig around in the settings, there is the option of running the initial server selection again. I can’t speak for the other devices, or give specific instructions as I’m currently not sitting in front of mine. I do know it’s there though.

See https://support.plex.tv/articles/customizing-the-apps-2/ for a guide on how to customize the smart tv and mobile apps.

There is curently not a way to reset the customizations all at once on the smart tv apps, AFAIK.
