Plexamp couldnt switch to new player9/19/2023 I could use the Sonos app, the Plex player, desktop apps and media streaming devices but then what’s the point of using this mobile app? I personally need it to compete with the DS Audio app for starters. Things to consider: Airplay and Cast button to use our phones as a controller and play music on our home speakers such as Sonos. It might be useful for there to be a little guided setup tutorial when first signing into Plexamp ?Īnyway, all in all, a great app and I’m super excited to have it! I was on my audiobooks library instead of my music library by default. I would never have figured that out had I not seen the dev response.Īnother thing that threw me for a loop was making sure I was on the right music library under Settings>Source. If I had one critique of Plexamp it would be that is not very intuitive to find. From there you can browse by artist, album or track with a variety of sorts available as well. this app is smart enough to know which artists to suggest from your library as you add them, which ends up creating a great mix.Īfter seeing the developer comments on some of these reviews I do see there is a way to browse all artists, albums, etc which is to click on the header “Recently added music” then click the. I love the built in “radio” stations especially the “Mix Builder” which allows you to create a shuffle of your own music based on similar artists. The visualizations for the Now Playing screen are cool, and kind of a throw back to the old school days of playing music on your computer with iTunes or Winamp. This is a beautiful app and a great way to finally be able to browse my Plex music properly rather than using the main Plex app. Been a Plex user for about 8 years and it has made media playback in the home so incredibly simple and I cannot praise that enough. I love seeing Plex take this new step with a dedicated music app. Not trying to bash on what has been done here. Last but not least once I select the album and it’s showing me the songs on said album I don’t want to have to click a song and then click play to play the song, just immediately play when I click it, no need to confirm what I’d like to do. I’d love the ability to edit the home to remove things like the radio and such. By default I think the preamp, loudness equalization, clipping help features should be turned off by default and we can go in and tweak those. It drives me nuts having to always turn it back on every time I would launch the normal Plex app. Similar to when I use plex to play music from the default app or on the TV it needs to have a repeat all or repeat single button, and it needs to remember your setting even if you close Plexamp. It is astounding they haven’t added it yet or why it would EVER be left out in the first place. It would be utterly perfect with a repeat option. Because I can’t be bothered to look down 6 times to start the song over when I’m driving him to swim lessons, it’s not safe. It is the only reason I take off a star and the only reason I don’t use Plexamp exclusively on every platform. Especially since I have a 6 year old son and often times it’s him that wants a single song over and over. These are my files and I should be able to listen to them EXACTLY how I want to, and if that means listening to one album or one song over and over, then so be it. It is an insanely simple option to add to bring it in line with every other music player available (aside for dumb streaming “radio” apps that don’t let you do anything but skip forward). Great app, supports FLAC when locally connected, great visualizer, and clean. This on its own is why I can’t give it 5 stars.Īlso would be nice for the “All Music” option at the top to be a little bigger for easier selection. Though I would really enjoy being able to adjust shuffle and repeat on the fly, just like every music app does. Love it’s functionality and ability to adjust eq on an iOS device. It would also be nice to set the new library page as your default when opening Plexamp. Had to make 4 playlists and download them separately in order to get whole library downloaded. Also please let us download our library easier. Please let us scroll through our music offline if we have downloaded the music. You can only shuffle the playlists you have downloaded, and you cannot scroll through those song’s, only play them. For instance if you turn of cellular data access to Plexamp, and if you go off WiFi, you cannot scroll through any of your music. Update: latest update added a section for you to go through all your artist, tracks, albums, etc, and gave alphabetical side scrolling!!! As I’ve used Plexamp I’ve noticed when trying to not use any data, Plexamp can act real weird.
