Updated on Android, now server is not recognized

Server Version#: latest
Player Version#: latest

Everything was working fine yesterday, the android app updated overnight, and now I can’t access my own server.

I checked the server is there, updated, ports open, completely reachable.

On Android, it’s not recognised either using mobile data or wifi.

I only use plex for my own media content, and now all I can see is a clogged interface full of content I don’t want that I can’t remove while my server is just not there.

Any fix or something I could try?

I am having the same issue. Android App updated automatically on phone and TV. At first it said the server version was outdated. Updated the server version to a newer one and now it won’t find the server on the Android apps.

Plex web app works fine on the local PC that runs the server.

That “no libraries found” screen looks familiar…

I wonder if there’s a problem with the new app related to ANSI characters. New Android Plex app does not handle Windows-1252 (ANSI) subtitles correctly

I don’t know what happened, but the library just popped in. I launched the app now, and it loaded the library without any problem at all. Why wasn’t it working and now it found it at first try, I have no idea.

I’m having the same issue. I just loaded up some new music to my server last night and was trying to get to it via my phone and I’m getting the “no servers” message when I go to the libraries tab. Server is the official Docker image running on a Ubuntu server base. Just pulled the latest image to retry, but no luck. I’ll give it a bit to sync, but it’s already been maybe 15 minutes since I updated and restarted the Docker image.

I can get to the server fine via a computer and the website, just not through the app. Plexamp is also not finding any libraries/servers.
