Plexamp v4.50.20-beta.4 through beta.13
Catching up on a run of betas I hadn’t posted here. Desktop has these on the beta channel now and iOS is on TestFlight. Google Play is a few betas behind because of long review times, so if you’re on Android and don’t want to wait, grab the APK from https://plexamp.plex.tv/downloads.html. The big ones: downloads are a lot more dependable, and Plexamp speaks your language again.
Added
- Settings search lives in the header: pull down to reveal it on iOS, or tap the search icon on Android.
- iOS: Caldera speakers can be calibrated one at a time from Settings > Multiroom, and rooms use the result to stay in sync. This needs the next Caldera beta, which isn’t out yet.
- iOS: Screen headers use the system’s glass buttons and frost as content scrolls under them.
- Android: Screen headers use the system’s title type and fill with the album’s colors as you scroll.
- Downloaded hubs on Home open into a full grid.
Fixed
- Plexamp is in your phone’s language again, instead of always English.
- Downloads keep going after you leave the app, and pick up again when a server comes back.
- With cellular downloads off, downloads wait for wifi, including in the background.
- Covers and waveforms for downloads arrive as each item finishes, and are fetched again if the server missed them.
- Downloads restored onto a new phone are fetched again instead of showing as downloaded with nothing to play.
- Switching users no longer signs you out when you tap more than once.
- Moving playback to a paused player no longer fails with “Could not switch to player”.
