I haven’t used Plex on my iPhone in over 2 weeks, since TIDAL is no longer functional on that platform (I have a 3 month free trial I signed up for through Plex). I find the web browser difficult to use on a phone, so I decided to download TIDAL’s iOS app and have been using that.
It’s confusing because I’m really enjoying TIDAL. I initially was very impressed with how TIDAL integrated with Plex to add “missing” albums to my existing artists in my library, and I also enjoyed exploring new artists with the TIDAL source in Plex. Ultimately I found the Plex integration lacking things like suggested artists and other similar features - also Plex doesn’t update with new TIDAL stuff as often as I’d like and there appears to be no way to manually update. (Plex tidal integration)
So I’d like to keep TIDAL but it almost feels like it’s making me want to move away from Plex because they don’t work together well. But I have a massive library of music so I’m obviously going to keep using Plex. Mostly it just makes me not want to pay for Plex, be it for a monthly pass or the lifetime subscription. I haven’t decided if I want (and can afford) TIDAL past the trial period. I’m crossing my fingers that Plex improves TIDAL integration before then, but judging from comments in the forum, Im not overly optimistic.
