What happened to the preview for Apple TV?

I have the preview for iOS but nothing appears for Apple TV. Was the preview discontinued?

On iOS, you should be back to the regular TestFlight beta releases of the main app. There should be no longer a preview.

On Apple TV, the new experience app is still a separate preview app. The app has been updated 3 days ago.

IIRC, an earlier preview version had expired. This might have caused some disconnect. You could try to sign-up to the preview again.

This is all so confusing. Sigh.

It sure is confusing. I had to cancel the experience then sign back up and now the Apple TV app is there. I really hope they don’t replace the Apple TV with the new experience before it is complete, unlike the iOS app.

already disabled auto-updates on my appleTVs especially for plex, that I don’t get the really bad alpha version new experience App onto my appleTV. The iOS App is already bad, but the AppleTV is simple unusable if plex decided to ignore all user feedback and replace the good plex App with that horrific disaster

The TestFlight app lost the link to the Preview app. When I try to renable it I get a popup from the Apple TestFlight page that the address is invalid. Any tips?

Go to the App store on your Apple TV, download Testflight and then Plex app within TestFlight

I looked at the already installed apps and did a search on the App Store and it’s not there either. The Plex preview app that I have has a little yellow dot underneath on the main homepage and the version is 2025.8.2.

You must download Testflight first, then within testflight download plex

2025.15.0 should be available

I have. I see it on my iPhone which says “the developer removed the build”. On the Apple TV, the Plex Preview in TestFlight disappeared. When I try to re add via TestFlight I receive the ‘address invalid’ response in Safari as shown above.

What happens with Beta program website

It just takes me to Plex.tv

It seems your in a loop. Uninstall Testflight, power cycle your ATV and try again by Installing Test Flight.

I will try that. I have three Apple TV’s and they all exhibit the same behavior. I will give your suggestion a go
thanks for the tip.

Nope, that didn’t help either. Super odd. On Apple TV I just get the ‘Welcome to TestFlight’ screen with redeem but there is no code for the preview app. When I click on the link here Join the Plex Experience Preview beta - TestFlight - Apple I just get the invalid address pop up. On the iPhone, I uninstalled TestFlight to see if that would change but I see that the PlexPreview is still there with the same notification that the build was removed.

So it not in the app store on ATV

No. It doesn’t show up as installed apps or when I search the AppStore.

Don’t worry about Installed just use search
 Plex app

I see the current Plex App not the Preview version when I search.

Try that, Preview is finished I believe. I’m still on a different Version through a invite with Testflight and Test Group
