How to customize the new Home Screen in the app? It’s horrible! I usually use the app on my ipad, but zero of my sections like “continue watching” exist now. If don’t use the app and open plex in the browser, it’s ok. But the home page on the app is literally useless. I have the plex content turned off, and so my “home” page is literally blank? So i can’t have my own content?? So this is the New “experience”?

Long-press (~1.5 seconds) the Libraries icon in the navigation bar at the bottom. Then tap “See All Libraries.” You can “favorite” libraries by tapping the heart to its right. The heart should become solid (it may take a couple of seconds) indicating that it’s a favorite.
The libraries selected should now populate the home screen with their hubs, and contribute to the Continue Watching hub which should be at the top of the screen (the Libraries hub will be immediately beneath it).

You are amazing! At least now i have my “continue watching” back. And the basics on newly added to each library.
I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know. I had deleted the app, and reinstalled and gone through every setting and nothing helped (except i did find how to turn off all the plex content i will never watch).

Did you not get the onboarding pages that asks you which you wanted favorited?
No problem, glad you can see your content now.

No, nothing like that. It was just a nice old useless blank page. I went through every setting, etc as I could not imagine this was “the new experience” - nothing
OK afaik it should have asked you. I’ll report that as a bug.

Thanks, yeah I did the update on my iPhone, same thing. Defaults to nothing. There was a splash screen saying about the updated “experience”. but zero way to add you library without knowing to long press.
Also do you know if there is any way to adjust the size of the icons? Currently on a 13” iPad screen the covers are huge. They look nice, but I would rather see more than just 5.5 and have them a bit smaller. Even at 50% the size they would be large enough to be impressive.
There is not but I personally think that is an interesting idea. We do that in the web app. I’m not sure what is possible with code new apps are written in. I’ll definitely bring it up to folks but I cannot make any promises.

This might not be possible since logs might have cycled past it by now but can you share your iOS logs. In “about” section of settings. Feel free to message them to me if you don’t want to post them in this public topic
+1, came here with the same issue
Here’s my logs

I’d really like a way to remove “trending trailers” and “recommended from your services”

Only way for the moment is to deactivate the Discover feature completely.
