Can you guys add an intelligent-upscaler for videos? As the iPad Pro’s resolution is higher than a regular 1080p video, so when stretched the videos do look blocky/pixelated. Some 4K TVs use such upscaler which enhances the quality of the 1080p videos played.

It's difficult imagine life without Plex now. Have Plex pass subscription even when I don't really need one.
One feedback for developers, not sure if it's my setup, but I have trouble getting 4K movies to stream locally reliably. I hope it will get better as 4K format matures.

Excellent app and best things is that its free for my uses

Great app which does the job. Its great toview all your movies and tv shows in a poster format like netflix and prime. No annoying file names or transferring media to usb drives and then watching them. Great app to create a local media server in your house and watch all your content from anywhere. Keep it up team.

Love this app

Whatever you can think of, it has already been done with this app. I use my Mac mini as a music server and don't like any other program running in it. But when I connect my HDMI and start plex, after the movie it shuts itself down and I can just disconnect the HDMI and I am back to a pure music server config. The search facilities are just brilliant. Outstanding design all through.

I watch a lot of movies & tv. That means I use Plex everyday. I can't think of one without the other now. Plex ie just part of my day, like driving to work, having coffee, buying grocery, etc
There is a plex app on my tv, on my ipad, iphone, PS4, I share my media with my friends, it never gets old how satisfying it is to have your films/tv appear with its poster instead of an anonymous file in your laptop. If you are using it, you probably already how life-bettering it is. If you haven't started yet, you are going to curse how long it took you to get to it, the yrs spent with non-compliant formats, with itune video transfers, server issues, etc.
How much do I love it? This is the first app review I have filled in my life, that's how much. I have the subscription even though I dont need it, just to show my gratitude.

Loving it.....
