How to add/remove/reorder content on Home Screen iOS (new experience app)

Plex Players Mobile Devices

I’m sure this is obvious, yet I can’t seem to figure out how I might change what is shown on the Home Screen on iOS?

I can see that I can press and hold the Libraries tab to add/remove/change, just can’t see it for the home tab.

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Favoriting libraries puts them in the Home Screen; te-ordering them puts them in the order you want them on the Home Screen.

If that’s not happening or you’re looking for something else, you w need to provide more detail.

When I favorite Libraries, it doesn’t seem to keep the setting. If I close and reopen the app, I have to refavorite them to get the recently watched section on the Home Screen. Is this just me or is this a widespread thing?

Thank you @darcilicious, fair to say this isn’t exactly a discoverable UX design, but I can confirm that for me it works, across devices and survives application close and re-open. Appreciate the pointer.

Hope that Plex implements a press and hold the Home button, to make this a little more user friendly (even just to show the same content as when you press and hold libraries).

I’m not experiencing Plex “forgetting” my changes after an app exit. I tested it a few times, I’m on the 2025.16 beta mind you so could be something that was improved.

Thanks, I’ll give the beta a shot; it’s the only setting that doesn’t stick for whatever reason.
