You need a good connection.

Not perfect, but the best I’ve found thus far. They are about to kill the company however with mega price hikes. Hopefully they’ll see sense and stop asking for money. Needs more functionality like song radios and the ability to veto artists or albums from shuffle and radios.

missing features

why is it impossible to refresh the library from within the app? so bad

Sweet

Keep up the good work. Can we get local ai support?

Great little app

It's been a joy to listen to all my ripped music. Plex amp makes it convenient and fun. I'm running it from a SynologyNAS which has been extremely stable. I would highly recommend IT skills, tutorials or help to get setup right.

Alright

Randomly it seems to be unable to find music in my library that doesn’t have an artist tag even if it’s in a well structured artist/album directory, and doesn’t even show a blank or incorrect entry like it would with a poorly organized movie, so it’s hard to tell from my whole collection what is broken.

I am also apparently unable to remove the ai related functionality that I will never use from the search tab.

Not annoyed enough yet to find an alternative but I wish failures to find and catalog audio files was louder

Perfect

Best thing ever.

Fantastic

You’ll definitely need this app if you’re switching from Android to iPhone

The world is better with Plex

I have been using Plex and Plexmedia server for a number of years. Why did it take me so long to start using Plexamp. Love it! What a great way to reconnect with my lifelong collection of music.

Bye bye Spotify!!!

Absolutely amazing app.

So much better than Apple Music

Happy I bought the lifetime pass before the prices went up. Nice to have control back over my larger library, and not feel lime I’m held hostage by apple’s closed system.

A user experience built by folks who obviously love music.

Fantastic app if you have a Plex library!!!

Great app, does pretty much what you would want it to do and more. One thing I do request though is integration with Waze.

I’m so happy I bought a plex pass when it was still affordable

It’s the best app, I’m sorry if you were late on it

Crazy good

I love the sound quality and that no one can listen to the same shelf

Lifetime PlexPass

It takes forever to get the remote access functioning. Usually have to reset it about once an hour.. and keet hitting “try again” untill it us working again.
When it works, it is excellent.

Best music app out there

Plexamp really takes all the benefits of selfhosting your music library and adds on all the benefits we’ve all come accustomed to with streaming, and then some!
The UI is great and intuitive, the mixes (while sadly locked behind a plex pass) are the best no-setup auto playlists out there. The settings let you customize everything to be exactly how you want it. The headless player / Caldera works better than Sonos and integrates with Music Assistant.

My only remaining qualm is that there isn’t an easy way to have shared playlists with your family or friends that you share your library with. While I made a basic workaround with python, it’d be great if it were a regular feature supported by the app / Plex ecosystem

Liars, thieves and sucks

I purchased the app with the promise I’d only have to it once and never worry about it again - then they forced me to update to a different app and discontinued the one I paid for. Now they want me to buy a plex pass instead

They also constantly change things and it’s just terrible

Best thing since Winamp

If you are running a plex server, add your music as well.

Nothing like it

It just works. Simple as that!

8/1/26 - thank you elan!

Edit: thank you Elan for listening to feedback and much improving the app in many ways, especially the offline features!!!

Previous: Love the app, love Plex… but this app could really use automatic offline feature so I don’t have to rely on cellular data in areas that don’t have great reception, as well as generally draining battery a lot more vs playing locally. I have a 512GB iPhone for these reasons. Would love to be able to stream on some devices but also have it locally stored, say for my device or a device that only connects to Wi-Fi.
