Não tem áudio e nem legenda em português

Achei um filme que queria assistir no aplicativo e gostei que é gratuito. Mas o ruim é não ter áudio em português e nem sequer legendas no mesmo idioma. Se colocassem outros idiomas no áudio ficaria mais acessível para as pessoas usarem o aplicativo.

Not worth the time!

Poor selection of movies, poorly designed interface, too many ads, connectivity problems, constantly.

Quality Settings

Please dear god let me change the settings while casting again, this is so annoying.

No NAS library access

I upgraded to this latest update but since my media on my local media server is not accessible via IOS. I can still access my data via Android or via the web url on WiFi.

Hopefully there is a fix soon.

What happened?

I've been using Plex for over a decade now, primarily for hosting my own media. It sucks to see them slowly deteriorate into another one of those B-tier streaming services and put the original customer base in the backseat. The app was, at one point, fantastic.

Now, it's a genuine struggle to get it to do the most basic of things. The UI change to be less like the webpage counterpart makes little sense. Why can I not browse my libraries like I would on the webpage variant? Why is something as basic as looking at all your libraries hidden and not the base when you go to the libraries tab? It's also slower to navigate and load times for being on a modern internet connection for basic UI is a slog.

Also Constant connection errors when trying to load a library on the same home network my server is on. I find that removing it from favorites then re-adding it works for whatever reason. Downloads rarely work. Removed the more nitty gritty settings that the webpage variant has. Asinine pricing changes that do not reflect any positive changes or enhancements with the app/service with confusing division of services amongst subscription types.

Wasn't even 5 years ago that I, at one point, could reliably load up the app and get right into watching my own content without any issues but the Plex team seems confused and divided on what they even want to provide for its customers.
