Plex for xbox one works great but why...

I have been enjoying using the plex app on the xbox one but what I am a little confused about is the way they designed the interface.  Why would you pick the same layout as netflix where I can't sort and easily find my tv shows.  The Plex app on all other platforms lets you sort by different options.  The plex app is only letting you see recently added and on deck.  Anything else seems to be random.  

 

The joy of plex is seeing other sorting options, recently added, recently watched, recently aired, etc.  I also found that the watch or unwatched flag is not being used on the app either.  We rely on this heavily for tv shows.  

 

Is there an update going to be done that opens up more of the options that are available on the phone/web?  I still flip back to my chromecast when I want to watch shows that we are behind on and would love to dedicate my viewing to the voice control of plex.  

 

Please also note that one big bug that I have seen is when you call out xbox select from main screen there is no "next page"  I have to tell it to stop listening and then call it again to get it to appear.  I also notice that the go back button can sometimes duplicate in the same area.

 

thanks again for the great work and I hope to see some updates for plex in the coming weeks.

The app is in Plex Pass preview and is still being actively developed. The app is basically in a large private beta to help plex iron out bugs before it's actual release and during development.

If you go into the movie section, the recently added, watched, aired are there before you browse the section. The only issues I've had with the unwatched flag are in the tv section which is a refresh issue in the UI. When you look on the server the watched state is set properly.
