Ridiculous! ### 2/5 — Inconsistent *2026-08-26, version 4.12.4* Constantly unable to connect ### 4/5 — Update *2026-08-21, version 4.12.4* Any chance you’re gonna update the app soon? ### 3/5 — Stale *2026-08-18, version 4.12.4* Hasn’t been updated in a year. Too much focus on main app but removing focus from audio. Specially after losing TIDAL. ### 5/5 — Plexamp is Awesome! *2026-08-18, version 4.12.4* Perfect music player for your media needs. ### 5/5 — So much better than the regular plex app *2026-08-16, version 4.12.4* The plex amp app has more to offer than the original. It comes with many different radio playlists and like other apps, the app will create random playlists based off specific artists. It will compile an amazing “sonically” similar playlist to match that artist with other similar artists. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-14, version 4.12.4* Love using this app. Quality is fantastic. ### 5/5 — Nice! *2026-08-13, version 4.12.4* On the go ! Perfect ! ### 5/5 — Incredible small form music app! *2026-08-13, version 4.12.4* Having a plex server is great for collectors but the problem with having so much music is that you don’t have enough time to listen to it all. Having this app on your mobile p hi one and being able to download it locally on your device helps you play it in the car or with your headphones. Love this addition to the Plex ecosystem! Thanks y’all ### 5/5 — Slayyy *2026-08-11, version 4.12.4* I was able to listen to ENHYPEN peacefully in bed with no problems at all🍓 ### 5/5 — Best option to integrate Plex with your music *2026-08-11* This is one of the greatest app I’ve ever used to play my local music! With a lot of good features and design. ### 5/5 — Sound hive *2026-08-10, version 4.12.4* First timers here. Working out good so far. ### 5/5 — Better than other music apps *2026-08-10, version 4.12.4* Great interface for my personal library. Love it! ### 5/5 — Just set up my home lab *2026-08-08, version 4.12.4* Amazing! plex does not force you to update, great business model! ### 3/5 — Inconsistant *2026-08-08, version 4.12.4* Buggy. Every server update makes this app sweat. No way to keep it updated. Plex seems to neglect it. ### 5/5 — Self hosted audio *2026-08-04, version 4.12.4* Amazing for self hosted audio ### 5/5 — amazing app *2026-07-31, version 4.12.4* love to be able to stream my own music from my home lab server to my cellphone and listen it my collection I already paid for anywhere/anytime!!! ### 5/5 — Super *2026-07-30* Super ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No updates for over a year *2026-08-18, version 4.12.4* What is going on at plex? No roadmap, promised features that have gone under the radar for 3 years?! Where is streaming to multiple devices at once? ### 1/5 — They turned it stoopad *2026-08-16, version 4.12.4* Complicated for no fukn reason. Stop trying to do apples bs and give us fukn control. ### 1/5 — Doesn't load library consistently *2026-07-29, version 4.12.4* Doesn't load library consistently ### 1/5 — So hard to use for audio books *2026-07-21, version 4.12.4* Plex really makes it hard to listen to audio books don’t they? I don’t give a care about all these playlists, etc. I just want to listen to my books. What, do you think I want to listen to random chapters across all my books. ### 1/5 — Never Works on Cell *2026-07-17, version 4.12.4* Like I said it works when it wants too after using it for a year … Works great on WiFi but on cell reception it’s trash and for the price you pay of Life Time not worth it 😒 ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-06-15, version 4.12.4* Lots of bugs and no updates for over a year. Chromecast doesn’t work, playback interrupts, the app hangs etc. Not good ### 1/5 — Stop shoving AI into things *2026-06-05, version 4.12.4* If you would stop adding this AI slop into the app I would happily change the rating because other than your random insistence on auto-enabling the environmentally disastrous and morally abhorrent “feature” of genAI, the app is good. I’d prefer it be re-integrated with the rest of Plex, but it’s still good. ### 1/5 — App won’t load content. *2026-06-03, version 4.12.4* It worked the first day I used it (after paying for Plex Pass) and now it won’t load any of my content. Ridiculous ### 1/5 — App Abandoned *2026-05-20, version 4.12.4* The app seems to be abandoned by Plex. ### 1/5 — why change what isn’t broken? *2026-05-13, version 4.12.4* Constant crashing. App is SO unstable ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 8/1/26 - thank you elan! *2026-09-01, version 4.12.4* 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. ### 5/5 — Literally my favorite app *2026-09-01, version 4.12.4* It’s the one I don’t think I can ever live without. Shoutout to Elan Feingold for making me love music all over again ### 5/5 — Great addin to plex *2026-09-01, version 4.12.4* Tried other apps to play my music. But this just works. You have to get Plex to add your music folder as a library. After that, it works seamlessly. Hi Res is clearly identified and sounds perfect. Album art looks good. ### 5/5 — It’s good *2026-08-31, version 4.12.4* Love open source ### 5/5 — Own your music! *2026-08-30, version 4.12.4* Beautiful app and helps take control of your library again ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-28, version 4.12.4* Me like it ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-28, version 4.12.4* It’s great. Though, it can be a little slow. But it could just be my phone. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ maybe ⭐️ ### 5/5 — Update from last year *2026-08-27, version 4.12.4* Love it. Hated it originally, but now it works really really well for my private music library. I’m working towards replacing spotify, and the playlist algorithms aren’t there yet, but I’m confident it’ll happen. ### 5/5 — Love *2026-08-27, version 4.12.4* It ### 5/5 — Goodbye Subscriptions! *2026-08-21, version 4.12.4* I was an early adopter of Plex about 10 years ago. Bought a lifetime pass and have never looked back. I appreciate owning my own personal media and being able to play it at will thank you developer’s. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
