A live info panel shows codec, resolution, bitrate, and buffering stats. Picture-in-Picture on iPhone and iPad. Progress syncs across all your devices. OFFLINE PLAYBACK Download movies and episodes to watch without a connection. Your progress queues locally and syncs back when your server reconnects.

Bandwidth tracking by user and stream. Full user list with last-seen timestamps. Playback history across all users. Tap any active stream for detailed info, or stop it with a single swipe.

A dedicated Resources screen shows live CPU and RAM graphs. Complications in Circular, Corner, Rectangular, and Inline styles put stream counts on your face. Tap a stream for details, or long-press to stop it. APPLE TV INTEGRATION Your recently-added content appears on the Apple TV home screen via Top Shelf. Browse and play without opening a tab. MAKE IT YOURS Choose between a traditional poster grid or a cinematic hero landscape view. Pick from a range of accent colors, or stick with pure black or the system default. Blurred poster backgrounds on detail pages give every title its own atmosphere. THOUGHTFUL DETAILS Multi-profile support for Plex Home users. Actor headshots with TMDB fallback. Stylized title logos (optional). Offline scrobble queue. PERFORMANCE Engineered for a light memory footprint.
