Hey I wanted this app so bad on my firestick 4K that I downloaded an app called aurora store that let me sideload the google play store on to my device to download google play store apps. I was able to get xplay on my firestick but it’s saying you can’t play any media files anymore. I paid for the app . Is it not working because of licensing? I mean I can few all my movies and tv shows on my server just can’t play anything. Only way I can play something is if I select to transcode it. Sent from my iPhone ---

Hi there, I am using xplay on my s9. Currently I switched the navigation bar to minimized buttons that led to app closing is impossible as the back button is not available to be pressed for long time. Kindly check attached picture. Please help to close the app normally on a different way. ![Screenshot_20190326-224908_XPlay](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/7/0/70eaf382b768911dcf905387270288b6da379a5a.jpeg) ---

Okay, I see. In the navigation (at left) there is the Exit item. It should be available when you are connected to a server. Right below all sections ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/8/0/8088999b0a3a61d02953564172a58b4d91767b73.png) ---

As a variant I could try to make a special “Amazon” version… But you will need to update it manually (for some period at least). I guess buying a shield is to expensive just for using with the app 🙂 As @Th0mAs said a mi box works well too ---

Hi, Can you add a new option, a “sleep timer”. Just to close the app and if possible to close the device after certain time. Thanks ---

Hi, Why do you think the app needs such an option? For example my Nvidia Shield automatically turns off itself after some period of inactivity. [Previous page](https://forums.plex.tv/t/xplay-android/211173.md?page=26) [Next page](https://forums.plex.tv/t/xplay-android/211173.md?page=28)
