I've been pretty happy with Plex overall over the years (lifetime subscription). I'm very disappointed in the new update/layout of Plex done in 2025. I really dislike that I now have to have an additional two separate apps for photos and music now, so three Plex apps total. No way to add movies to a playlist. Definitely a big step backwards in my opinion.

Plex on Firestick Select doesn't work very well. When you go to "more ways to watch" on a title, the cursor will not highlight the text intermittently, and instead scrolls in the background, making this function broken. I have cleared the cache and it persists. It's also the slowest and laggy app compared to all the others. Had to upgrade to the Max for it to work as intended. New update makes shows and movies take much longer to load and buffer.

Since they changed the app UI across all my devices, it has become unusable. Constant random crashing, playback studders, constant troubleshooting, etc. The new layout is not intuitive at all, total garbage. I just want the old app back as it simply worked, and allows me to access all my media in one place. Now I just use a browser on my phone to access Plex. I really like Plex Amp still, but I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before they find a way to ruin that as well.
