User Reviews

The reviews show mixed sentiment: users praise Plex for solid library organization and genre variety (notably horror/classics) and the ability to binge-watch, but repeatedly complain about core reliability issues (bugs, crashes, battery drain), a disruptive UI overhaul that removes or hides features, degraded downloads, poor iPad multitasking support, and pricing changes that feel like a misstep. Overall, content variety is a plus, but stability, usability, and policy changes are the dominant negatives.

Pros

Excellent library organization that helps manage your collection.
Strong catalog for genre fans, especially horror and classic films.
Free, ad-supported movies offer solid value for casual viewing.
Ability to binge-watch content across seasons.

Cons

Persistent bugs and instability, with crashes, stuttering playback, and noticeable battery drain.
UI/UX regressions: new design hides or removes features, moves controls, and generally makes the app harder to use.
Downloads and offline features are degraded or nonfunctional.
Poor iPad multitasking support: window controls block the UI and multitasking navigation is unusable.
Pricing changes and subscription model frustration (shift from a one-time fee to a subscription).

Recent reviews

It’s a scam- it makes it look like it has all this great content but you can’t actually watch anything! Even when I specifically choose free shows, it gives me stuff I can’t watch. Or it allows you to watch a single episode and then blocks the other 11 seasons. I will stick to Tubi and Pluto which only show you content that you can really watch!

Have been a longtime user and lifetime plex pass holder. Have really enjoyed the plex experience for personal media, but ever since they tried to become a streaming service as well, things have gone downhill - offline downloads somehow now require the app to be online.. don’t know how that is supposed to work for roadtrips with kids on iPads with no connection. They had a major price hike last year, which was/is a hard pill to swallow, but now upping that same price over 3x again for lifetime plex pass.. makes it a very hard app to recommend now. All in the name of development of an app that is to host your own media.. maybe stop trying to be a streaming service (which has b movie titles and is trash anyways) and focus on what made your product great to begin with, actually hosting, and you’d have plenty of money for development.
