Ok maybe this has been talked about ad naseum but who asked for this new app and or who is it for? So far it’s harder to use, and plexamp is a joke- Plex just basically made my main use of the service (streaming audio) impossible. Great work team!

[image] BENakaBEN: plexamp is a joke How so? It has a far more extensive featue set than the regular old mobile app.

It doesn’t connect or even load properly or reliably on an iPhone 15 pro. Pretty tough to use “extensive new features” when the app doesn’t even load. Bravo.

Why would I work with the devs who took away the features I, a paying customer, value? Why does your update force me to spend time making sure the new app I didn’t ask for is functional for you? I’d rather spend the time looking for solutions to transfer away from Plex. I don’t want the new app, I l…

Unsolicited new android app and now I can’t see my libraries either on my lan or remotely. Yet again I’ll have to reinstall everything, log out and in and generally mess about trying to make it work.

Agreed; Plexamp not intuitive as the old app. The new app that deal exclusively with streaming video is a major let down for those who have and will continue to use Plex for the intended and original main use of the service (streaming audio).

Plexamp works fine. I have been using it for ages for streaming music as have many others. IT’s actually a very good music streaming player and allows you to cache ahead quite a few tracks so you don’t find your music stoping when you are on the underground/metro etc. You can also download music for…

I did not ask for and do not want it. Tried to use it last night and it sucked. Could not fast forward in a show by double tapping anymore. Could not find the setting to stream at a lower rate. I have to choose what rate to stream at instead of setting it to automatically stream at a lower rate …

If the app I don’t want and didn’t ask for doesn’t load on a currently updated iPhone 15 pro after a fresh install, what settings should I change? Or did maybe the developers blow it? I don’t want dynamic or AI playlists- I am capable of making a playlist. The last app allowed downloads and cached …

If you would be willing to work with the developers, please fetch the plexamp logs and please describe what you mean by “load properly or reliably on an iPhone 15 pro” with a bit more detail in a new thread in here: https://forums.plex.tv/c/plex-labs/16
