PLEX ANDROID PHOTOS APP
9-15-24
THESE COMPLAINTS PERTAIN TO BOTH THE PLEX WINDOWS APP AND THE PLEX ANDROID PHOTOS APP.
Let me TURN OFF the color background when viewing a photo!
I do NOT want to see and no one else wants to see an amorphous blob of color when viewing a photo. This “feature” makes using Plex Photos as a presentation tool utterly unprofessional.
I don’t want/need to choose another color for the background. You don’t need to add complex new code, just a switch to turn off the background.
I’m sure someone there at Plex will say this is a trivial request and it should be ignored.
Plex Windows Photos does not recognize Canon CR3 RAW files. Canon updated their RAW format in 2019! WTF?
Plex Windows Photos recognizes Canon’s older RAW format CR2.
Microsoft Photos Windows 10 App displays CR2 and CR3. As does IrfanView and others.
No version of Plex recognizes Adobe PSD files. Please add this capability if you want to be taken seriously.
Does Plex know that their Windows desktop app is the Photo part is Broken? It now fails to read sub folders with an error message something like “Oops, something is broken. Start over.”
I had to reinstall a previous version to get it to work.
The Plex Android App (not the current beta) shows all folders.
THESE COMPLAINTS PERTAIN TO THE PLEX ANDROID PHOTOS BETA APP.
So far the Plex Android Photo app is way less useful that the Plex Windows app. You should bring the Android PHOTOS app features to the level of the Plex Android App before you add features or capabilites to the Android PHOTOS app.
There are no OPTIONS in the Plex Android PHOTOS app.
There are no PLAYLISTS in the Plex Android PHOTOS app.
How do I force a refresh the Plex Android Photo app? Can I?
The Plex Android PHOTOS APP does not show any thumbnails or the carefully crafted posters I created for my Photo library. The current Plex Android app does show both.
