The recent client update removed the trailer button from the pre-play screen. You must now scroll down or click the 3 dots to see a movie or tv show trailer. This is a PIA. Is there any way yo restore the trailer button?

I’ll pass it along but can’t make promises. It is on the main page in mobile so hoping it can be added on TV as well. ( I assume you are talking about a one of our TV based apps)

Meant to say Android not google. Tablets running Android do not have the trailer button. At least my Samsung tablets don’t. version 12 & 16.

I’m using Plex on a Chromecast, and I find this change incredibly annoying and honestly hard to understand.

The trailer button is one of the most useful features when you’re browsing movies and trying to decide what to watch. Why on earth would you hide such a frequently used button behind the three-dot menu?

It makes absolutely no sense to me. Something that used to take one click now takes multiple steps, for no apparent benefit.
