They must let you received when someone connect by push notification if you desire. Also the possibility to close the connection to specific user at will.

Or maybe im wrong and it available?

I not sure what you are asking. But if you want to stop playback of someone go to the now playing part of it and hit the thee dots on top right of that card and choose Stop Playback

Thanks. I did known it. Besides that option is good to receive a push notification on the cell phone to know when someone is connecting.

I’m a bit unclear what you mean by someone “connecting”. A person could open the app and it would ping/connect your server so it is available to them, but have no intention to play anything from it. They might play from another server or from our streaming content.

Wouldn’t it get annoying to receive a push notification every time someone you gave access to starts playing something. What if someone binge watches a TV show sitcom, every 30 minutes you would want to get another push notification?

The main Plex mobile app (not Plex Dash) has a push notification option for playback started.
