Google authentification

Hello!

I have an plex-pass account and use Plex almost every day for 4 years on many different devices. Very good and useful product))
Every device, that I use up until this moment have Google account and I use Google authentification to login and connect to my servers. But now I have one android device without GMS, and when I try to login into plex - i receive “Can’t find account” message. Can I tranform my account from Google authentification to “email”/”password”?

Yes. You can add a password to your Plex account.
See https://support.plex.tv/articles/use-federated-authentication-to-sign-in/
then scroll down to “Add a Plex password to a Google- or Apple-linked account”

The email address that you use for signing in will still be the gmail address.
You just select “Continue with Email”, instead of “Continue with Google”.

Security best practice: Avoid setting the same password in Plex, as what you use with your Google account!
