Hi everyone! First - thank you for your feedback. I, and others all around Plex, have spent the last twenty-four+ hours reading through messages both here, on Reddit, and in other locations. We are still evaluating this broad response, but wanted to get an update out. Let’s get the big question out…

OK If this is it and we have to live with it on our ROKU devices I have one request. I can navigate around the cumbersome new interface but I need the “Continue Watching” bar to be at the top of the page when I open this app. I have PLEX to access my files and have zero interest in anything else. S…

Oh yes indeed. Last big change they made I was very vocal about it. You can even see it in my post history here. I gave an honest to god damn. This change though? Not even worth trying anymore. Last time they told us to pound sand, this time they’re telling us to pound sand. Next time (and they hav…

Thank you for the reply! I sure hope we can fix the error…. I could live with the new Ui if we can. I have done that “*” “remove” thing so many times my fingers hurt. Even after deleting the app from roku *( a bunch) and logging out and back in (a pain with my long PW) - The problem is that the…

dogsivu Plex Pass Exactly - if I go to the 3 dots and scroll down I see my main libraries, but I have to do this every time. “*” “remove from favorites” has no effect and “hearting” the ones I need has no effect either. It will actually delete ONE favorite, but it just pops right back on the ho…

@McWanke Though I don’t care for the message, I appreciate the communication. I’m assuming that Plex really believes in this new UI. I propose that you put both apps up, one as “Plex”, and the other as “Plex Classic”, and let the users decide which they prefer. This will give your marketing folks s…

I’ve never posted before, but now that my Plex is completely broken, I feel lost on how to move forward. This has been the worst update to my Plex in years and I can’t even use the product I paid for anymore.

Please roll the Roku release back. This is a huge mistake and I’ll be forced to stop using Plex if you don’t.

I have the same problem and I have seen posts from few other people with the same problem. It’s the same problem I’ve had on iOS since this was rolled out there, it’s just a significantly bigger problem on a TV than a touch screen. Unable to favorite libraries

Hoping this is addressed farther down the thread. For me, this is only the main account (all sub-accounts work fine) and only on Roku (both Roku devices in the house). But I’m 50+ items farther down and haven’t seen anything about it yet so I’m not very hopeful.
