@BigWheel I was told I should tag you in this to see if this is a known bug that is being fixed as I would rather not download an APK and rollback my plex version. I have made no changes to my settings or account and when I went to use the app on my samsung galaxy 22 ultra at the gym suddenly I was …

I have port forwarding setup. It seems to be an issue only with android mobile devices since the new plex update. Everything other than my android phone works outside my network but my phone will only stream when connected to the home network with or without the VPN. I can look at my libraries and s…

I’m getting the same issue was working fine before the new update but since I get the same error. I can access just fine using the website [Screenshot_20250502_011948_Plex]

I wonder if it has something to do with the new watch pass that plex rolled out. I have the lifetime pass also, but it’s not working on my android when I’m not at home. Used my daughter’s iPhone and it worked. Guessing there will be an update.

This was posted on another thread and helped me, its the next update set to roll out in 2 weeks https://artifacts.plex.tv/react-builds/2025.16.0.966828397-4fa82/PlexReactNative-2025.16.0.966828397-4fa82.apk

I dont know how to use it to be honest but does that mean theres already a fixed version that isnt being rolled out? Or is that rolling you back to a working version?

Where did you get the apk from? It worked but i would like to make sure its from a legit source. Can you post a link to the web page?
