This problem is very consistent. I have the latest version of Plex running on my Xbox One, the latest version of the Plex Media Server running on my Mac Mini, and the latest version of Plex for iOS on my iPhone 8.
I start Plex on the Xbox, then Plex on iOS. I can choose “Xbox One” from the “Choose a player” dialogue in the iOS app, which works just fine. I then start som music from the iOS app, which plays back just fine on the Xbox One.
However, I then exit the Plex iOS app, relaunch it after two seconds - and the iOS app just won’t connect to the Xbox One again. In fact, it is no longer visible in the “Choose a player” dialogue box on the iOS app. The music keeps playing, however. But there is no longer any way for me to control the Plex-Xbox from my Plex iOS app.
Anyone else experiencing anything similar? I can force quit the Plex iOS app, but it doesn’t help. Sometimes, but very seldom, the Plex iOS app reconnects to the Xbox One, but this connection basically seems broken?
Hi there. We’re looking into issues with the Companion feature, hold tight.
Tried again today, seems to have become much more stable? Latest version on Xbox One, and on iOS.
@oivindi Glad to hear it. Our update on Tuesday contained a couple of Companion related fixes.
