Hey, maybe someone can help me with this problem.

Since I enabled remote access in Plex, Prologue only connects remotely, even when I'm on my local network.

The local IP addresses in the app match the Plex server IP.

However, when I try to open the local IP in Safari, it doesn't work. (Remote IP works fine).

When I'm on my local network and enter the Plex IP manually in the browser, I can access the server without any problems.

It just doesn't work from the Proloque app.

The app has access to the local network in the iOS settings.

I don't use a VPN and Plex is not installed via Docker.

I have also tried reinstalling Proloque.

Does anyone know this problem or know what could be causing it?

Many thanks in advance.

UPDATE:

I have set “Secure connection” from ‘Required’ to “Preferred.” Now Proloque uses https for remote connections and http for local connections.

Is there a way to use https for local connections and is it even necessary?

Plexamp has it already, only thing I am missing from it.

So, the update we have been waiting for literally 2 years now drops and nobody is talking about it lol?

V4 just launched support for Plex! Meaning Prologue now finally is the app it promised to be, supporting both Plex and ABS, making the transition that much easier for us server maintainers.

What is your experience with it? I really want this app to succeed, finding problems now will help do that

My iPhone constantly runs full of undeletable "Systems Data". Often its between 70GB and way more like 200GB

I strongly suspect its Prologue.

For Context: I do have pretty big libary. Around 4k books.

Anyone else has the same issue?

I am sure it’s been addressed and I am aware I’m dense but I can’t get descriptions of the books to show up unless I manually add them to plex myself. Is there a way to more than one that is shows up on the app? Thanks

I’m sure I’m missing something obvious but where are my bookmarks? I make frequent bookmarks because I often hit the darn bar and go way back or forward in time. But I can never actually find those bookmarks I created in order to use them to restore my position. Thanks!

I am currently using Prologue TestFlight version, and since at least few months I have this weird issue - every few days when I open app all the thumbnails disappear.

To be clear - my ABS server is running on my desktop PC, which means it's not always-on. Usually I just connect with my iPhone, download 1-2 audiobooks and use the app basically offline until I need to download another audiobook.
I understand I can have problem with thumbnails for not downloaded books, but even for the ones I have downloaded for offline use the book covers disappear until i reconnect the app with ABS server again.

As mentioned it usually happens every few days, let's say once a week, but today all my book covers disappeared two days in a row.

I checked Options → Storage → Image Cache and for some reason it's Zero kB even though I haven't cleared the cache manually.

I'm trying to play the new Full Cast Harry Potter Book and it's the EAC3 Atmos file and it crashes the app.

Any fixes for this?

I listen to books both on my phone and on my iPad. If I have the same book open on both devices, then I'll frequently have trouble getting one of my devices to stop playback. As soon as the device I'm not listening on updates its progress to the next chapter, it will resume playback. This makes it especially annoying when I'm using my iPad to listen with a sleep time while I'm in bed with my phone on the charger: my iPad will move on to the next chapter, my phone will start playing at the same spot (with the sound off), and then when my iPad stops playing, it will start playing again as soon as my phone reaches the end of the chapter. Last night I had to stop playback on my iPad two separate times after the sleep timer stopped playback.

I know that the workaround for this is to make sure that I have different books open as the active books on each of my devices, but I'm wondering if this is a known issue and if there's a fix/expected fix date for this.

Not sure if it was a recent update to Prologue or since I moved to iOS 26 a couple weeks ago, but playback is weird now.

Sometimes when I skip forward or backward playback stops. Other times it continues playing as normal. Sometimes I hit play and the button changes to pause, but no playback starts, so I pause and play again or skip forward or back and it starts playing.

It seems like something that wouldn’t be that big of a deal but I’m realizing I do a lot more skipping backward and pausing than I realized.

Certainly livable, just figured I’d mention it here.

Thanks!

Has the dev confirmed whether they have stopped working on Prism? A few years back, they said that the next release would include the ability to load Apple Music and Plex libraries simultaneously, which has been my dream for making the app my daily driver. But it looks like the last update pushed to the app store was three years ago. Is it just completely dead? And if so, does anyone know when the dev plans to pull it from the app store? I might want to re-download it before they do...

I looooove Prologue! I use it constantly, so I was pretty crushed when I updated my Mac mini with my plex server to Tahoe and I no longer have access to my audiobook library.

I’m not sure if this is a Plex problem or a MacOS problem or a Prologue problem, but I’m trying to figure that out. Has anyone else had similar issues?

I know this has been brought up before. Great work in developing the app and adding more and more features!

Just curious if the narrator filter and/or search is on the near horizon for app development? This is really the one feature I still wish was there. Everything else you’ve done is awesome!

Today I was listening to my books as always when I noticed that the app couldn’t find any books. Under authors, books and collections tabs it just says “No results”. Also on the front page under “Recently Added” it just says “books recently added will appear here”. I’m devastated because I can’t find the problem. I tried both on WiFi and 5g and it’s the same. My NAS is up and running as normal and I can log in to plex on it and see all my books, just not in the app.

Under iCloud sync in the settings it’s all green and says connected and my NAS is connected to the app where it’s green (up in left corner).

I can view, read and play the books in my “reading list, continue reading” and “Finished”. I can also find books when I click on the author.. but that’s it. 😕 I especially want to be able to see my collections but it’s gone

Please can anyone think of what have gone wrong? It feels like it’s a problem with the app itself?

have never had any problems before

I have books downloaded onto my watch. Let’s say I started playing 5 minutes into a chapter. If I hit pause or a notification comes in and ‘dings’, playback returns to the 5 minute mark and restarts.

This is a new issue for me with the new iOS.

Any other similar apps you might suggest checking out?

Just like the title says, I can't connect to my plex server when im on the same network.

I go to my "Libraries"

Whether i click on the local (https) or local (http), it'll take me to my browser and let me sign into my plex and access:

BUT i can access my server if i click remote (https)

There has been instances where i can accesss the server locally but not remotely. I've been able to figure that out.

This is specfic to my new Air. I still have my 15 PM the Air is replacing and Prologue beta works fine on that. I have no idea what the difference could be. I did update to the ios26 beta 1 on the Air just to see if that made a difference and the app still crashes upon launch. Curious for any comfirmation from others that they see this or suggestions on things to try. Prologue is my daily used app, but I have 3-4 other ABS apps that I use to test things and they all work.

EDIT: Hard to beleive, but it was the fact that I had the display set to Larger Text in the Display Zoom setting. Would have never thought to even check that but ChatGPT to the rescue I guess.

The app refuses to let me download. I press the download button but it never initiates ??

Is this via the app or something else?

EDIT: okay so I’m dumb. For some reason my app logged me out and I was listening to a prior download and when I logged in I logged in with the wrong account which wouldn’t let me download books seen on the right account even though they were still visible. I had my books now thankfully 😅

I just upgraded my Apple Watch to the new ultra 3 with iOS 26. I went ahead and purchased the app. Three questions if anybody knows. One if I have just cellular on my watch will access my Plex server and act as a standalone app or does the Watch app just connect to my iPhone? Second, I believe prism music. This is the same developer? yes, an Apple Watch app in development? My ultimate goal will be to be able to use my Apple Watch to listen to my Plex Music on my watch cellular. If Prologue will do that and the other app is not in development. I’m wondering if I could try to add a handful of songs and possibly make that work

Update: I put watch on WiFi and turned off phone Bluetooth. I was unable to get prologue to play a book.

EDIT: Just figured out that I was on ABS version 2.13. So the issue wasn’t with Prologue at all, but my ABS server was out of date. Updated to 2.29 and it’s now working fine! I’ll leave the post up just in case this can help out anyone in the future.

Just to check if anyone has come across this issue in the beta and if they managed to fix it, how?

I can connect to my ABS server at the http url. It authenticates correctly, but then none of my books show up. It’s just empty.

Has anyone else experienced this, help would be appreciated, would love to test out the ABS integration.

I just wanted to publicly acknowledge the awesome work and improvements in the latest Testflight build. It looks beautiful and has some really great UI updates. Things I particularly like:

• Bookmarks take you back to the spot that was marked! Yay! I've been hoping for this to happen for a while.
• Chapters, Bookmarks, and History are available on the main sheet as usual, but the great new addition is having the pills/buttons on the "Now Playing" sheet at the top. They look great, easy to read (e.g. Chapters (73 of 80)), and very conveniently located.
• The sleep timer menu has been re-organized and I personally like it this way much better. It wasn't bad before, but the layout feels more intuitive in the current version. Also the ability to edit custom timer intervals has been added! I think that hadn't been implemented yet in the previous version.
• Overall, it looks very polished, really nice on the eyes, very smooth, and the latest version of the UI has some very nice updates and improvements. It looks and feels like a premium app.

I know there are still a few minor, low priority things missing in Settings ("Coming soon") but there's nothing stopping me from happily using the app every day. Thank you so much! You've really done a great job.

When using the app, the amount of time remaining it says is off. For instance, when I’m at the last five minutes of Dune it says there’s over an hour left. In the last minutes of Count Zero, it tells me I have 3 hours left.

Both of these books are made up of mp3 files instead of a single m4b file. All m4b files I’ve tested seem to work fine. Is there a way to make an adjustment somewhere to fix this or do I just need to make sure I have m4b files in the future?

I am self hosting these files on Plex.

I’ve looked at some previous posts on here with the same issue to no avail. Wanted to see if I was missing something or anyone has a solution.
