September 13th, 2024. That’s the first instance I can see where a Plex user pointed out that there was no ability to download our photos to our phone using this new beta app.
May 17th, 2025, @aubrey.wodonga acknowledged that this functionality was “added to the issues list a couple of days ago”.
It’s now November 20th 2025 and we still can’t. It’s particularly sad for me as I’ve had a baby in the meantime and all the photos that I’m sharing with grandparents via Plex can’t be saved to their phones.
@Atomatth- this is what your users mean when they say that the app feels dead. The last update that I can see for Android was 10 Jun 2025, nearly half a year ago. The last interaction from the previously-active dev on this thread was in August, 3 months ago.
As much as I appreciate we shouldn’t expect updates, we are indeed paying customers and the curent “BETA” app still does not have feature parity with the previous, deprecated, version.
I cross my fingers for a Christmas surprise.
