I bought Plex Lifetime hoping it would fix this issue with Android app not showing my podcasts.
When I click on the podcasts icon in app, it shows picture of a dog in a spacesuit and says; Add A Podcasts Library. When I click on that link it just takes me to a support page on setting up Plex for the first time.
I can see, add and listen to podcasts on my Roku and PC just fine.
I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled. My server is up to date.
Do you have a media type with more than one library? like two movie libraries? I think there is a bug where podcast does not load and switching sources within type will force it to when you go back to it.
