How it works:

• Shows a rotating slideshow of recently added content when idle
• Full-screen immersive experience with auto-hiding controls
• Updates automatically every 5 seconds
Features:
• Clean, distraction-free full-screen interface
• Support for both movies and TV shows
• Tap to show/hide detailed information and summaries
• Automatic content refresh every hour
• Works with iPadOS 15 and later
Perfect for:
• Giving older iPads a new dedicated purpose
• Second screen setups in home theaters
• Displaying current playback in common areas
• Adding visual appeal to your entertainment space
Setup is simple:
Just enter your Plex server URL, port, and authentication token. The app validates your connection before saving, ensuring a smooth experience from the start.
Note: Requires an existing Plex Media Server and valid Plex account.
