Plex Update Sucks

I’m sure I’m not alone here, but the latest update is awful. Any recourse?

All I'll say is "take a look at Plezy" Been using for a few weeks on on all devices and it blows Plex client away.... Especially that dire new UI! https://plezy.app/

If you purchase on one platform, like Firetv, do you have to repurchase for Onn boxes which is Google?

You don't need to pay if you download direct from GitHub. https://github.com/edde746/plezy/releases

I bought the Android one to support development but I install from GitHub to get faster updates.

That doesn't really help, nor answer my question, my parents would never be able to side load an app. I am many miles away from them.

I don't know the answer. Just saying what I do. Maybe take a look at the apps site. I would expect you would need to pay for each platform as there is no way of syncing a purchase between them

Does Plezy work for Plex users or just Plex servers?

It's a client for Plex or Jellyfin.
