The new apple app for iphone is horrible. The GUI is unpleasant and difficult to follow. They took something that was perfect and make it worse. ---

I hate to be a pessimist, but Plex does not care. They have drawn their line in the sand and they no longer care what their users want. At this point, we need to be showing Plex how much we care by completely boycotting them. I truly believe it’s the only way they’re going to get the message. ---

To use a movie reference (maybe that should become a thing in all Plex forum posts - haha), I can only imagine this is an “Emperor’s New Clothes” situation. Somehow, Plexians within the company aren’t willing to tell the truth to decision-makers. Or decision-makers aren’t telling each other the truth. It’s either a severe lack of awareness or complete lack of integrity that is driving this. There seems to be no other possible explanation based on what we are seeing (and not seeing) from Plex. > [@jwenga](#): > > The new apple app for iphone is horrible.

In March, Plex released a “new experience” that has destroyed a lot of trust with thousands (if not tens of thousands) of Plex customers. These forums (and many others), along with App Store ratings have made that obvious. As part of this “new experience”, the personal media of paying Plex Pass customers has taken a back seat to many of Plex’s own priorities that don’t ali… ---
