A nice change I’d like to see is a toggle in Settings to quickly change certain parts of the UI for people that ONLY watch media from their own server, e.g. bottom nav allows you to quickly switch between libraries/library types, etc. Or even better, let us customise at least the bottom nav if you’r…

You’re not comparing the prior “Preview” version, are you? You can’t have the new released version that is out today and the old app installed at the same time. The new Preview app completely replaces the old app now.

I cannot believe this is a public release! It’s still a beta (if not alpha). This stuff is barely usable. Give us back the previous version!!!

I have two iphones - one first i update app on second one don’t update, so that’s why new app is crap - i can see both apps :man_shrugging:t2:

I would happily join the beta and help out but TestFlight was not accepting new people. Now I just cannot watch the live tv anymore because it is forcing some kind of transcoding that was not needed in the previous app. Is there a way to roll it back please?

Observations of New Plex App on iPhone and iPad: UI is very slow to respond to taps, making experience unpleasant. Live TV Favorites are now broken up by source, used to enjoy aggregating sources into one list. Live TV auto begins streaming antenna upon entering LiveTV, this creates lag wai…

Just updated to the latest version, but app freezes at the “Pick your Favorite Libraries” screen. I press continue and nothing happens. Running ios 18.3 on iphone 16 pro. Plex server on QNAP Nas, with latest version of Plex and Qnap QTS. I have tried terminating and restarting the app, deleting …

We are missing the report button. Pokemon is showing the Pokemon Horizons the Series logo and I wanted to report that it’s incorrect, but it’s not there.

I unfortunately updated this app today and totally dislike it. Like others have said already this app is nowhere near finished. I liked having the feature of selecting Music within this app. I know you now have an app for music but it’s not the same as having it under one app Also where are my Ph…

Anyone reading this, I recommend disabling auto-updates and just keep using the old app for now. The new one is pretty bad and aside from missing/removed features (Watch together) should never have been released this early. Thanks for the enshittification, Plex.

I was very concerned they wouldn’t have fixed this. Same issue carried over from Preview. I pointed it out in the preview thread.

This is an app killer.
