User Reviews

The reviews show a mixed experience: many users report the app works well and can deliver local streaming for free, with strong, positive overall sentiment when functioning. However, the recurring issues are: intrusive ads interrupting playback; reliability problems (crashes, server connection drops, Dex-related UI issues); weak library management and search capabilities (and lack of robust local file playback/playlist support); and pricing concerns around Plex Pass and changes to remote streaming. Overall, performance is inconsistent and depends on setup.

Pros

Local streaming without Plex Pass (no ongoing subscription)
Ability to run a Plex server on a personal device (e.g., laptop) to stream to other devices
Overall positive sentiment when functioning (reviews describe moments of Very good/Excellent/Great performance)

Cons

Excessive or intrusive ads during playback
Reliability issues: frequent crashes and server connectivity problems (especially on Android/Nvidia Shield)
Weak library management and search quality; difficulties finding local NAS content and limited local file playback/playlist support
Pricing concerns: Plex Pass and changes to remote streaming being not free anymore

I have tried to upload this app then Uninstalled it, a few times over 5 years because of the constant buffering. Both on my smartphone,& tablet. I got a new smartphone and tablet last summer,& I decided to recently add it to my tablet....Buffering, AGAIN. During the ads. Took forever to get through those pains in the *ss to try & watch the classic movie I hadn't seen since childhood. Bone up, Plex! I might just uninstall again..Permanently!! Fix your damn bugs.😡
