Now Playing for Plex does not provide or host any media content. The app only connects to the user’s own Plex Media Server on the local network and displays playback metadata, artwork, progress, player name, and user name returned by that server. All content is provided by the user’s own Plex setup. This app is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Plex. Plex is a trademark of its respective owner.
