In the way Kodi does.
Actually not a bad idea and worth a feature request. Not sure whetever it is already possible with plugins. But I guess not, I at least have not seen anything the like.
But it’s not what is asked for here. You can create a Kids Channel, an age restricted account (it would be a whole different story if you couldn’t). And honestly I think you underestimate kids if you think they can’t handle plex as it is.
The problem I have with the Feature suggestion is that there are some requests that make existing features usable and some that enhance the width of which Plex operates.
As example we have some people that wish to have audiobooks and can continue play at some point on them. For them audiobooks are kinda garbage until they have their stuff fixed. Which I think is important. Requests like this one: “[Feature request] Fix sync on mobile devices” I am not even going into detail. (For me it’s a bug that hopefully gets fixed soon. De facto my only problem with the new design so far is this bug)
My main focus and I even support requests with votes that don’t give me anything, is that our Plex experience gets…fluid. That means perfecting existing features and existing functionalities before adding new ones.
Perfect the way we can play the files we are given. (Audiobooks) Perfect the way we can use the recommendation Future (atm garbage). Maybe the ID3 Tagging would make sure our Music library is cleaner and more robust?
After that? Alexa, google voice integration? Customizable GUI? Sure!
But if you don’t take your time to “Fix” the things we have, the things to fix get more and more, the more features you add.
