How do I share the new "Movies & TV on Plex" feature with managed users?

Hi Guys,
I can see that on the admin user but can’t see that on any managed user menu or a way to share it along with the libraries.
Thanks.

See the “Enable / Disable Access” section of this support article:

Can Plex Movies & TV be shared with Remote Friends as well?

They can access it for free with a simple Plex account and accessing this URL: https://app.plex.tv/desktop/

No need to install Plex media server or any other software :slight_smile:

What about, iPhone and iPads?

They would have to purchase the app (once for all iOS platforms and all devices) or have a Plex Pass.

Followed instructions and “Movies & TV” do not show up in “Online Media Sources”. I am updated to the latest version of PMS. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Do not show up where? Where are you looking?

I am looking in the web app to enable/disable access for managed users with the link that you provided.

Sorry, go here: https://app.plex.tv/desktop, click on your user icon (on the right), then on Account, and then on the left, click on Online Media Sources.

Thanks! That did the trick. I was going directly through the IP address of my PMS and it wouldn’t show up.

I have a Premium account, but the Plex Movies & TV don’t show up my iPad or iPhone apps (purchased)

Which iOS versions are installed on your devices?

I know it’s early days but it’s pretty poorly implemented. I’ve enabled the online source and it still does not show up for managed users.

Even if I could enable it, I see no way to disable this source for certain managed users who I would not want access. ie young children.

Check your app version and the requirements listed in the support document.

You may need an update.

My devices say that I have the latest version of the iOS

Plex app version, not iOS.

Sorry, FordGuy61, I misunderstood. I have the latest version. I have fixed it though… I deleted the iPad app and reinstalled and the Plex Moves & TV are now in the list. Thank you all for your quick responses.
