8 of 25I rely on the download feature to keep my content on my devices up to date. Now with this new update, downloads are just about useless. Plex has a long history is screwing over the people that have been long time users and thus is no different. Fix downloads! New app continues to neglect the old download features. So, so, so frustrating. This app is still garbage.
It’s been over a year since they broke the ability to Go Live in Live TV. You are stuck starting at the beginning of the recording, and if you back out of it for any reason, or change networks - back to the beginning again. You can’t fast forward live tv, so why even have the button? Crazy that they can’t fix this
Plex has lost there way, they no longer represent the people who they started for, they have become greedy and just want more and more money, I’ve cancelled my plex pass, which I had instead of a life time because I wanted to support them, but they keep going up on the price, and then take away things
Some good movies but the ads are absolutely ridiculous. 38 mins into a 2 hour movie & there has been 5 2 minute ads 😑
Yess
It’s gotten better over the years but it’s still very far from letting users completely remove the bloat. Some users like myself didn’t pay for Plex to make way for the streaming stuff coming from Plex itself. Still an avid user but I feel that we are overlooked and it’s sad really.
Please fix where video goes into zoom. Doesn’t happen often but sometimes it changes and I have set it back to letterbox.
Drains iPad battery in 2 hours. iPad is hot
