I removed your post for swearing/cursing etc. I understand you are frustrated, we are all only human, no need to get nasty with him.
āWhat is the actual problem - exactly?ā that is nasty and condescending when there is a whole thread on the topic . This thread had been bumped a few times through out the year.
When it takes a YEAR for a actual Plex Employee to look at a problem, THAT IS A PROBLEM.
You will not tell other people on this forum, whether users or employees, to go F themselves, regardless of frustrated you are.
Coming up on 2 years.
Same old crap.

Another Beta, more of the same.
Do you notice that nobody reports anything anymore on the beta? Because you do not fix anything. How much time did you waist on this new forum instead of fixing your crappy software?
Latest beta build #14611
FIXED:
- Add a hint overlay the first time using the app.
- Camera Camera Upload can be configured by allowed Home Users again.
- Hide incorrect error message when switching Live TV channels.
- Music Videos and Similar Artist are right in the Artist View.
- Tapping on the volume icons wouldnāt change the volume in remotely controlled players.
- Tweak colors of source picker labels to better differentiate titles.
STILL NO FIX.
Just to add, picked up a Fire HD8 on prime day for $20 just to test, and know what? Besides the rest of Android sync not working well, like reporting that the device is full, marking items watched that were watched while offline, after coming home to wifi MARKS THEM WATCHED CORRECTLY ON THE SERVER! So this is a IOS app bug and not a server bug.
But just keep ignoring the problem, keep ignoring your users.
Still nothing.
Interesting, I thought this was now working, Iām not seeing Plex IOS client using my Cellcard now. It appears that switching the client to offline works?
Can you discribe the steps you use and Iāll test it here on my device?
sync a show
go to airplane mode
watch show (you can FF to about 10min left then play till end)
turn off airplane mode.
the watched show will not be marked watched back on the server.
This works perfectly on Android, does not on iOS.
Hello @Anijake
I think it is working, Iām doing the following.
Mark Show as not watched
Sync to my iPad
Switch to Airplane model
Watch the show.
Switch off Airplane model
Show is not marked as watched until I complete a Sync. In this case, Iāve added another TV show.
Sync completed to 100%
Show is marked as Watched and reflected into PMS correctly.
Yes, itās been recommended previously to do a manual sync in order to get everything correctly marked as watched etc (in a different thread).
This may be the fix that people are having when listening to music in spotty cell service. It would play a couple of songs and then when out of cell service would hang at 0:00 on the next song and just sit there until you restarted the app.
Not that your item shouldnāt be fixed but I think this is what that fix is referring too. But then again, I could be totally wrong.
No, its this issue. I was emailing with @elan about it and he said the fix was in the next release, but when told it STILL DID NOT WORK , he basically gave up, as usual with Plex.
Well, itās been a year since anyone has posted to this thread so presumably itās fixed for the vast majority of situations.
Your situation may show the same symptom but may be a different bug entirely unfortunately 
or everyone has just given up hoping for a fix. But whateverā¦
i was able to replicate it a year ago but havenāt had the problem for a long timeā¦

I can reproduce it every single day.
I donāt disbelieve you.
I didnāt give up on anything except the notion that emailing with him was constructive. I would try to be helpful and let him know that fixes were coming, and his replies included things like:
Well as of BuddyBuild 17999, it is still not fixed, so if they added it, they need to go back to the drawing board.
Iām a friendly guy and I love helping people solve problems, but I have to pick and choose how my time is best spent, and I donāt need that sort of negativity.
