Plex, Inc. made sweeping, untested changes to their Plex for Android app (which accesses my media server). Not only is the new layout more clunky and less intuitive, but it’s so buggy as to be unusable in places.

The UI changes were annoying, but the bugginess was so bad I had to roll back to the previous version. I’m at least fortunate that Android lets me do that…

I like Plex Media Server when it works, but the company is often so bent on adding new features that they don’t focus enough on fixing bugs or whether said features are actually desired by the current user base. It’s annoying.

JEDIT: But I can’t just switch to something else because the alternatives suck worse than Plex for different reasons.
