What's New in Plex

2026.13.0

July 6, 2026

NEW: - Episodes on the season details screen now show a download status indicator. FIXES: - Deeplinks containing a locale segment showed a "Something's not right" screen instead of opening the destination. - Deeplinks no longer get dropped when the app launches into onboarding, sign-in, or switch-user before the main navigator mounts. - Filtering downloads by movies or shows with nothing downloaded could leave you without a way to clear the filter. - Fixed a crash that could occur when following certain links or deep links the app couldn't open. - Improved scrolling performance for screens with lots of rows. - Invalid click.plex.tv links no longer get stuck in the app and now open in the browser again. - Library details screens would not close when the item was deleted. - Live TV: Offline channels could show loading skeleton in some situations. - Opening the app from a marketing link or QR code now takes you straight to the linked movie or show. - Player: Paused playback could resume on its own when the screensaver appeared or the device went idle. - Player: Quickly stepping through a seek could leave the controls showing a paused state. - Player: Seek preview could briefly show thumbnails from the previously played title. - Player: Subtitles could turn on automatically when watching Live OTA channels. - Swiping right on change artwork rows caused list to snap to start.

User reviews

It’s okay

The app is good but if your looking to watch new shows like love island USA or like anything popular it won’t let you watch it what so ever

Sign up

Can’t sign up. Very disappointing.

This Plex update has issues.

This app won’t connect to my server about 1/3 of the time since the most recent update. I have to open and close the app on my iPad, but sometimes I have to go to my server PC to restart the app there. While I’m thinking of it, the ability to restart the server from my iPad would be great too.

Black Screen

My screen goes black after the ads play. The audio is ok. I restart the movies, its ok until the ads play. iPad air 5th generation.

They deleted my review wow

Constant UX regressions. Greedy. Unwanted features that invade me and my users privacy. Squeezing my users for spam and promoted garbage. Plex is not good stewards of your data or your time.
