Plex Pass vs. App Purchase

I am trying to decide if I need the Plex Pass vs. just purchasing the apps on my devices. Can any one provide feedback.

I am looking to view my content on my iPhone and iPad remotely when I am away from my home. I know I can already do this on my laptop when away.

Is getting the Plex Pass worth it or should I just purchase the $5.00 app for each device. What are the benefits to having Plex Pass?

or you get a 1-month Plex Pass membership to test the Plex Pass features… if you don’t like it you can still fallback to the app activation.

Thank you that is good to know. I didn’t realize they had a trial version

Not a trial version, just a monthly vs. lifetime option.

Got it

Quick question: Just purchased plex pass.

I was able to download from my plex server to my smartphone via wi-fi

My question is this: If I am at work and not in my lan can I still sync and download from my plex server or does it only do that over wi fi?

Thanks!

You can do that if your remote access is up/working.

It is enabled as i can watch tv eps from my server remotely just cannot download them remotely

Still getting will sync when connected to your wi fi. and it does, but if I try by disconnecting wi fi I still get that error.

So, can plex download from remote server NOT under that Lan’s wi fi?

Have you enabled Plex to sync/download while using mobile data?
