Author hates Plex

One thing to be aware of is that the author refuses to accept or implement any features that require or benefit from Plex Pass. He states that this is because he does not like Plex the company, and so does not want to support them. If you buy this, you’ll never be able to use any features like offline downloading of transcribed shows, etc because he won’t implement them or accept contributions that implement them.

Feel like I was tricked

The app had the nav bar on the bottom for both iOS and iPadOS while in landscape view. For some reason it was updated and moved the nav bar to the left hand side. Being right handed this is inconvenient and I really dislike the look. I prefer it on the bottom. Why can’t it have been a toggle and let me decide? I will change my review if this gets reverted or a toggle, but looking at the GitHub it looks like they make changes like this at times without offering a toggle and you are SOL if you hate the forced change.

I’d gladly take a refund if it’s going to be this way going forward, I feel tricked. I’ll go back to infuse.

Totally Worth It

I was sideloading this app but decided to install through the AppStore and pay to support the app. It’s great. If you play media from a Plex server, this is the app that unlocks the full experience.

Great Media Client

Plezy is a great media server client and is more robust than the standard Plex client at the moment. The UI layout is slick and the library loads smoothly with any artwork that’s thrown at it. The built in media player is top notch and full of features, couldn’t be happier.

Love this app

though picture in picture is not working on OSX

Response from developer

Do you only see one library in the library dropdown (top right on the library screen)? If so, that sounds like a bug and you should open an issue on GitHub.

Better than the stock Plex app

Less bugs and lag, mostly just works

The best playback app

I have been using the app for the better part of a year and hands down this is the best media player for content on Plex. It by far more consistent and responsive than the native app. If you use Plex consistently it’s 100% worth the minimal cost.

Way better than Plex default app

This app is fast and lean. Doesn’t have any bloat. Works on both phones and computers. And finally I can tap and hold to increase speed without 10 different steps.

appletv4k, ipados 18.7.9

auf appletv kann man nicht die vollständige Beschreibung der Filme ansehen, bei Serien wird die Episodenbeschreibung nicht angezeigt.
Auf dem ipad gelingt keine Verbindung zum jellyfin server. Folderanzeige fehlt.

Auf Empfehlung eines anderen Users nochmal alles neu installiert. Verbindungen funktionieren jetzt.

Was bei mir nicht geht: Auf der Startseiten werden die Mediatheken nicht angezeigt trotz Einstellung
Start—Mediatheken.

Regarding the connection issue, it would be good if you could either email contact@plezy.app or create an issue on GitHub with as much detail as possible so we can solve the issue.

Superior to Plex App

If Plex had any sense, they would acquire this app as a wholesale replacement of the mediocre app they currently sell. This app might just make the new lifetime subscription worth it.

Plex as it should be and I am happy to pay for it.

This is what Plex was like before it became all about jamming in features nobody asked for and when the UI wasn’t a laggy, over-complicated mess.

Plezy has integrated the actual good features that Plex added, like intro and credit skipping, but it’s so much quicker to do things like enable subtitles, change quality. etc.

Plezy is 5 stars out of 5.

Close to perfection

This app just works, and it looks great while doing it. Would rate 11 stars if I could.

Amazing

I don’t write many reviews unless the experience is great or really bad. Plezy has been great, I read about it in Reddit and gave it a chance and it just fixed a lot of the issues I had with the plex client app.
It is a well done , nice UI and just works as expected app.

Great work dear devs, cheers

Was great when I got it a couple weeks ago even better after the latest update

Edit: one request would be to be able to change the app icon to a few different styles.

Finally, a solid alternative with a good UI since the Plex app has been in decline the last year. Love that this app brings back the watch together feature for friends out of town. I was having an issue that it wouldn’t play the next episode unless I got out of it first, but the new update has fixed that. I also like that the update brought back the ability to look at my library under date added. Love what you are doing, and I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a solid alternative to the flex app.

Updated review

Issues with Jellyfin playback resolved, I apologize for using review as a way to bug report I see the issue with that now. Thanks for the quick response.

Response from developer

This should be fixed in the latest update. App Store reviews in probably the worst way to report bugs since I do not check these often, if you have further issues I'd suggest emailing contact@plezy.app or opening an issue on GitHub.

Works great, better than the default Jellyfin iOS client imo.

I use this app for Jellyfin and it has the best looking GUI of any Jellyfin client I’ve found and the developers are very quick and responsive with fixing issues with the app. It would be nice if Seerr integration was added in the future.

Almost perfect

Finally an actually good jellyfin client. The ONLY thing missing is the option to use the native keyboard or somehow bring in the Siri Remote search. Please please please add in Siri voice I hate typing with that keyboard.

keyboard - not a good experience

Tried this on tvOS and not to a good start. Keyboard is not the standard apple keyboard. For someone who connects to apple tv via iphone to input username/password with remote keyboard it won’t work. that’s a deal breaker for me especially when using secure passwords that are stored in password manager.

Response from developer

I'd suggest using quick connect for Jellyfin. For Plex, sign in is done via a QR code and you sign in with another device.

Great work

Excellent substitute for plex.

Terrible experience

Apple TV app is terrible. UI glitches, app freezes and skips during UI navigation, search function doesn’t work 90% of the time, you can’t search with Siri via the remote. I paid $10 for this and it’s a complete waste of money. Do not buy this.

Response from developer

It'd be helpful if you could make a detailed bug report including how to reproduce these issues either via GitHub or email (contact@plezy.app).
