This just happened last night to us too. I deleted the app then restarted but same thing.

Is yours working now? Mine is still down.

No😕. My new tv downstairs works. I guess we just wait ?!

Mine’s the same, not the first time this has happened.
Stopped working as it was reported to O have bugs.

Yup, same here… It’s terrible; my whole home music management is build around this… Does anybody know if there’s a workaround?

The current work around is to go to the Opera app and search/open the Plex app from there.

Thanks @ricky_sett! Yup, now I found the other thread too about this topic with more details. I can confirm this works for me.
It’s not great, but it’s do-able.

Now we all wait for a new approval of the app, I assume…

Same issue here. My whole system is built around this app. So any updates? Hopefully Sony hasn’t disabled this permanently.

Hi Ricky. Can you please provide more details. Thanks

What kind of details do you need? I have a tv that uses the Opera store for apps. I have the Plex app installed on my tv. Every time I try to open the app I get the error I posted and the app closes.

There is another thread and this is what a Plex employee responded:
“The cause of this issue has been identified and Vewd/Sony are working on a fix, but haven’t provided a timeline on when it will be fixed. They have recommended launching the app through the Vewd (Opera) store for the time being.

Unfortunately Vewd has advised as of of June 30th, 2019 Sony Smart TVs not running Android will no longer have access to the Vewd store and subsequently the Plex application. Sony Bluray players will losing access to the Vewd store and Plex app ahead of the smart TVs on March 20th, 2019. This is not a decision we made to pull the app from the store and to our knowledge will affect all other apps on those platforms.”

Same problem here.
Is Plex working on a fix?
