This is a good app though honestly some of the things are better viewed on a desktop. It really is missing a killer feature though. It should have server availability notifications. The app should be able to push notifications to me if the server is down. I mean as a monitoring app I feel that is pretty basic functionality. The features they do have though work well.

When opened, wakes any device on your local network that has had a Plex server on it at some point. I much prefer using Tautulli on my server and Tautulli remote on my phone, which has been providing a similar featureset for years. I wish more development effort was focused on fixing the myriad of bugs with the standard Plex app and the server rather than developing these new apps (Plexamp, Plex Dash).

Won't pause server logs. Trying to read the server logs to see where an issue is but they won't stop after hitting pause at the top. They'll keep updating every few seconds and won't stop. It deletes the old lines every time it updates so i can't find the errors before the lines are deleted

Would give it 5 stars if it had the ability to edit items with the power of the web interface (for me, I wish it could at least let me add and edit sharing tags, as that's something that is difficult to do without using the web interface on a PC).

Says "nothing to see here" when streams are actively playing. I can see the bandwidth usage in the server data tab of the app, but the info about who is watching what is missing.

Well, this app was pretty much straight forward. Now I get the basic info from my server on my phone and tablet without going to my pc to check. Clean and slick UI. Keep up this amazing work👍

About this app

★★ You'll need a Plex Media Server and an active Plex Pass to use this app ★★
★★ From the same people who brought you the Plex app ★★
★★ PS - If you’re new to Plex, download the Plex app first ★★

Pop quiz, hotshot: how many streams is your Plex Media Server dishing out RIGHT NOW? What’s your most-watched movie in the past month? Is that CPU you picked up from a sketchy eBay vendor up to the task? More importantly, are you sure that’s the best poster for Speed (1994)?

Plex Dash is a tool created by obsessive Plex Media Server admins for obsessive Plex Media Server admins. Get real-time status of playbacks, DVR recordings, Sync conversions, and more. Monitor bandwidth and server resources with sexy graphs. Dig deeper and learn about top items or individual user history. Fix up artwork. Refresh libraries. Inspect nerdy media details. If it all goes south, check out the raw server logs.

MASTER YOUR MEDIAVERSE
Who’s streaming what right now? Plex Dash answers in spades. Gorgeous Now Playing tiles keep you apprised of all the latest shenanigans, across all of your servers. Put that giant iPad to great use by duct-taping it to the wall (landscape, duh); lean back, pet your hairless cat, and keep an eye on your empire.

DIVE UNDER THE HOOD
Server up to something? DVR recording? Media Optimizer doing its… optimizing? You get a chonky lightning bolt to make sure this doesn’t go unnoticed.

ONE-HANDED CURATION
Browse and change artwork from the palm of your hand while checking out at your local co-op. It’s like that other swipey app, but with less risk of disease.
