Comments on Plex: Find Movies & TV Shows for Android

★★★★★ Brian Edet · Oct 31, 2026
I have not tried but i beilevie it will be good
★★★★☆ Seeya! · Oct 18, 2026
One star. Want everyone to see this. There is NO WAY TO CONTACT SUPPORT!! EVERY LINK DOES NOT WORK ON YOU WEBSITE AND THERE'S NOTHING TO REACH YOU ON YOU APP. DO BETTER. Also, REMOVE POLITICAL ADS. JUST MAKE ME TURN THE TV OFF SO I WATCH YOU EVEN LESS.
★★★★★ Peter Green · Oct 13, 2026
Easy to set up, works a treat with trouble-free motoring. Update: New Android version is slick but watch the latest UI changes in Fire TV version. Its garbage and I backdated my stick using downloader version.
★★★★☆ Mike Bagar · Oct 13, 2026
I have a Chromecast and with Plex I will never go back to cable. Update. Years ago I migrated to roku, the new app update is awful. Almost want to go back to cable. Update 2. The Roku app is now mostly usable and intuitive, just a little slow.
★☆☆☆☆ Henry Pang · Oct 31, 2026
Plex 2026.20.0 on Google TV is barely usable. Performance is sluggish, playback frequently freezes when fast-forwarding or rewinding, next-episode playback is unreliable, and movie playback timestamps often fail to save. The redesigned interface is also a downgrade, making navigation less intuitive.
★☆☆☆☆ Keith · Oct 13, 2026
A negative review for Plex is pointless since they're doing things that suggest they have a strange hold on home media center software but this is just about the Android app(s) For years they've refused to fix the created playlists on the TV app. I'm forced to use my PS5. For some reason they give that more attention Also pip on the phone is useless. It's just a box lol! Nothing to see This app was better when it was free. Now you have to PAY to watch YOUR media. Sorry...OVERPAY.
★☆☆☆☆ Will Berry · Oct 19, 2026
This new Plex experience update is awful. While it looks prettier, it performs so much worse. Slow and laggy menu navigation, spinning circle of death if you try to rewind back. How did this get the go ahead?
