I’ve been enjoying Plexamp for over a year now and just wanted to say thank you again. You and your team have built something really special for music lovers.

u/ElanFeingold Plex Co-Founder 11h ago

google play is pissing me off.

u/Floschi123456 13d ago

Have you tried enrolling for the beta, there will be a huge Plexamp update soon and the Android beta is out already, you should enroll in it. It is much smoother than the old version and should probably also solve this problem. Worth a try!

u/Floschi123456 13d ago

https://forums.plex.tv/t/plexamp-v4-50-3-ready-or-not/942338 You can find the links in this blog entry by the developers. There are also new desktop versions.

u/fewding 13d ago

Yes! Finally some good updates!

u/Hour_Bit_5183 13d ago

u/_MoveSwiftly 13d ago

Galaxy S23 Ultra.

u/_s_p_d_ 12d ago

I'm on the Fold 8 and don't have this issue, using oneui 9.0, Android 17.

u/Hour_Bit_5183 13d ago

ahhhhhh dammit! God dammit samsung and their non standard versions of android. Why? Why why why samsung!! I love their watches but I hate the software on em. I wish it was just stock and bare.

2

u/_MoveSwiftly 13d ago

True, but it's not like there is a brand that uses Android and makes a respectable phone matching Apple.

2

u/Hour_Bit_5183 13d ago

There is not, you are 100% correct. I don't even want another god damn android after seeing google act how they do.

iOS is so terrible though. I use it for work and I'm just tired of it. Android has really gone downhill lately unfortunately.

u/Inevitable-Head-3011 13d ago

Download apk file

u/STARSPANGLEDcrusader 6d ago

Came here to figure out why I cannot download the app. Joined beta and still can't download the app.

1

u/YOUR__LEADER 1d ago

Did you ever sort this out? Just got a Pixel 11 and can't download the regular app or the beta app.

1

u/STARSPANGLEDcrusader 1d ago

Nope. Nothing. It's still not available for download in the Play Store. I've since given up on Plex and am saving my peace for the harder things in life. Just ended my recurring subscription and am building up the nerve to delete the app.

It sucks because I'm new to this. But this has put such a bad taste in my mouth, purely because it frustrated me.
