Bonne appli

L‘application est bien mais apprendre qu’on doit payer 4€ de plus pour changer quelques éléments de personnalisation alors qu’on vient juste de débourser 7€ me paraît très limite…
Sinon l’application est fluide et réactive ce qui est super !
Sur l’Apple TV le texte et les icônes sont à mon goût trop grands et ils devrait y avoir une option pour changer la taille.

Indispensable!

Plex enchaîne les maj de plus en plus discutable accompagné de choix de conception de plus en plus médiocre pour ses utilisateurs, j’en viens à regretter mon lifetime pass.

Vous êtes juste géniaux franchement je suis super content de voir que plezy rends le tout plus amicale en allant dans le sens des utilisateurs et de manière aussi simple !

Also die App ist zu 100% die beste wo ich bis jetzt genutzt habe. Aber ich kann nur 3 Sterne geben da ich seit dem letztem update nicht die neuen Funktionen nutzen kann obwohl ich die App gekauft habe.

Excellent

Beaucoup de choses que propose Plex premium, sans abonnement mensuel.

Très bon boulot pour l’app, fluide et très belle! 💪

Plays Videos, UX is poor

I was really excited for Plezy, mainly because the latest Plex app has been having buffering issues and not playing videos for me.

Plezy however has been playing those same videos and I’m really happy with that.

However, the interface for it on Apple TV is done poorly. Starting off the interface is clipping on my tv. The padding between items is too compressed. Swiping on the remote doesn’t work to jump multiple rows/columns. Lastly, all of the servers I’m on are listed before my own, so I have to scan down to get to my own library. Horrible UX. And the performance with preloading media while scrolling is slow.

Best Plex client

Since Plex is no longer listening to their users and push buggy updates. Plezy is the best Plex/Jellyfin client!

Good for video

I really like the video part of this app, it’s much better than the new Plex app. I hate a lot of the new design choices so I bought this as an alternative and I’m happy with it but it has a big flaw and that’s the downloaded music section. It’s really awful, I was hoping this could be a PlexAmp replacement too but it’s not.

Best Plex server client

This is the best Plex server client I’ve used. It feels smoother than Plex app itself. I use Plex Media Server, but the only issue was the app—Plezy fixed that.

Best client for Jellyfin or Plex

I was a long time Infuse user until recent issues with Trakt, I moved my scrobbling to Simkl and needed an app that worked with that service. Found Plezy and it is the best app going, can use with plex or Jellyfin, sync history with whatever service you want, ui is beautiful and it’s got loads of customisation. Haven’t had any issues streaming remotely or at home. Use this now on all my apple devices and it keeps progress sync perfectly if I swap devices

Extremely thoughtful functionality

Hey mate; you’ve done an absolutely fantastic job here. Really well done. Ive had a pretty thorough click around and tried out a range of different features. I found the UI decisioning to be pretty thoughtful and had zero issues finding everything I wanted to find based on changes I wanted to make. Basic stuff like landscrape orientation on navigation, ability to edit metadata within the app, VERY complex filtering (including a huge variety of stuff not available in the official app).

Im a long term power user and will continue testing over the next few days. But if notjing severe rears up, im probably going to switch my entire setup across and will probably recommend my users do the same.

Perfect Plex Replacement on AppleTV

Took a chance and bought this after the recent update to the Plex app on AppleTv. All the features and options are there,Adding my Plex servers was easy, I’ve has ZERO issues with videos loading or stuttering.

It. Just. Works.

If you’re searching for a Plex App replacement after the recent AppleTV app update Go ahead and buy it this. You won’t be disappointed.

Feel like I was tricked

Edit: the developers response is incorrect and completely dismisses my issues. I absolutely regret buying this app twice. Would rather use the other alternatives after that response than have given them money.


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.

Response from developer

The "issue" you're describing can be fixed by turning off auto-rotate.

Great alternative to the official client

Plezy is smooth in appearance and function. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an alternative to the Plex client on any platform.

My only request would be to increate the UI font size in the Mac App Store version.

A new contender

Fantastic Plex frontend with nearly all of the same features from the main app. Much cleaner, snappier, lightweight. It has a companion TV app, remote control, music playback, connects to various watchlist services. It's all there.

It has everything but Chromecast support, which I would like to see eventually.

Totally worth the price. No subscription. It's just doing everything right.

Amazing

Everything I wished the Plex app was and more. Added bonus of extremely active development. Keep it up guys!

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.

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.
