I don’t believe you can. The Pinned menu shows all the things that can be Pinned to the Sidebar. You can unpin Discover from the Sidebar by clicking the Three Dots menu to the right of Discover and selecting Unpin. Good luck. Chris ---

Thank you, but unpin Discover doesn’t do anything, it still there. ---

You remove it like any other media source. Switch to “More”, then scroll all the way down, until you reach the Plex media sources. “Discover” is there, and it has a context menu behind the ellipsis **⋮** which allows you to unpin it. The process differs a bit, depending on which type of Plex app is used: > **[Customizing the Mobile Apps | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/customizing-the-mobile-apps-2/)** > > While our apps work to give you a great default Home screen, everyone’s needs can be different—and can even vary... > **[Customizing the Big Screen Apps | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/customizing-the-apps/)** > > The following big screen Plex apps currently run this interface: Amazon Fire TV Android TV Apple TV Plex for Mac/Windows... > **[Customizing Plex Web | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/customizing-plex-web/)** > > This customization method of home screen hubs/rows will depreciate on April 22, 2021.

“Pin” is there. Which means that “Discover” is not yet pinned. So it can’t be unpinned. Please show a larger part of your screen. I don’t recognize that small snippet in your above screen shot. ---

Well, they are correct. It doesn’t matter if Discover is pinned or Unpinned. Discover remains regardless and that’s the point, we want it entirely removed from the side panel. Where is THAT ability? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/d/b/8/db8f16024e27d5d2d0a0d940c9892b899ede7c72.jpeg) ---

So your side bar is already in “More” mode. You can’t remove it from that. ---

So you’re confirming that this is NOT removable? Any details as to why? ---

Because Plex wants you to have it. There’s a feature request rolling around to grant that ability. You should consider voting for it: > [@\[Implemented\] Fully Disable Discover & search results from Streaming Services (More Ways To Watch)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/fully-disable-discover-search-results-from-streaming-services-more-ways-to-watch/786259): > > While I understand the new Discover feature is something lots of folks want, I however don’t. My local media is all I care about, nothing else and I’m sure plenty of other folks have the same opinion as me. Currently there is no way to fully disable this new Discover and subsequently Streaming Services (More Ways To Watch). The major side effect of this is that when you perform a search external content to our servers is returned in the search results. We should have an option to disable this… ---

Im already out of votes. In fact, there really shouldn’t even need a vote required since this again, like many things Plex likes to add, should have had it by default but didn’t. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ ---

It’s not removable from the “more” screen but it most definitely is able to be unpinned from the “home” screen on everything I’ve done it on: PC, iPad, Roku TV. ---

There are 2 screen here, Pinned Screen and More Screen. Pinned is default screen when you launch any client. More Screen is where your complete servers and libraries, that’s your screenshot here. Discover is already unpinned so you don’t have to do anything, just use Plex normally as you would. What you’re asking is basically remove Discover and Plex entirely from your “More Screen” which won’t happen. At best you can do is vote for disabling new features which might give an option to hide Discover but getting rid of Plex itself don’t think will happen. ---
