New Plex App loses change Icon feature

It is ridiculous that the new app which looks nice imo loses all the functionality of the old and still good looking app. One thing I noticed is the changing of the icon is gone. Like it isn’t a huge deal with the amount of other issues this new app brings but like FFS can ya’ll stop taking away things. I want to change my icon, why even remove it? Like seriously do you not beta test and ask for community insight or do you like to be constantly told you ■■■■■■ up why are you so ■■■■■■■ bad?

Not so much an answer, just for context:

Like I don’t understand companies who give you a basic feature, remove it and go yes this is a good idea. Like it doesn’t stress servers, doesn’t break code. They are just dumb…

on iOS at least we can using a shortcut. send this file to your phone/tablet. create a new shortcut. long press it, send to desktop. choose the new icon.

Yeah I know, just dumb we have to do this roundabout thing that was baked into the app before.

I second this. Very annoyed at the new update which removes basic features including changing the app icon. I don’t like the default icon, i think it looks supremely ugly. Please give us this feature back. I’m leaving a negative review on the App Store until it is fixed

Any update on this? I’m going to have to put Plex in a folder as the new icon is so ugly. I know I’m being melodramatic but I clashes with everything else on my Home Screen and I hate it.

Took me an hour to even get into the app only to discover this ugly icon is the only option. :sob:
