Plex has announced new Discover and Watchlist features that work across streaming platforms including Netflix, Disney+, HBO, and more.
Today, we’re proud to be launching an entirely new section of Plex, focused on discovering, searching, and personalizing movies and TV shows across virtually any streaming service—whether it’s Plex’s own free movies and TV, or your other subscriptions like Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, and as many of the various personal media libraries you have access to. As of today, Plex searches, personalizes, and organizes all of your content, no matter where that content lives. Now, when you log in on any of our major platforms, including Roku, Apple TV+, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, iOS and Android mobile devices, smart TVs, game consoles, and the web app, you’ll get a new welcome screen that will invite you to customize your preferences.
The feature will let you see what's new and trending titles from all of your selected services. You can browse curated recommendations, watch trailers, and search for titles across hundreds of services and your local library.
A new unified Watchlist will let you keep a single, central list that covers anything you might want to view on any service.
So, instead of a watchlist on your HBO Max account and your Amazon Prime service and your FXNow service, you just add it all to your Plex Watchlist. And what’s better, when you add Beavis and Butt-Head Do America to your list, we’ll always know where you can watch it when you’re ready—because it was on Hulu when you added it but who knows what service(s) it’s on now (oh that’s right, we do!).
You can also add upcoming movies to your Watchlist, letting you tracking their progress from theater, to rental, to streaming.
In the Discover source, you’ll notice a list of trailers for upcoming movies and shows. You see something you like, and you can add it directly to your Watchlist from a button on the trailer. Now you’ll never forget about that movie you read about at a film festival, or that obscure new Scandinavian murder-mystery show that your co-worker is raving about. Add it all to your Plex Watchlist, so when you sit down ready to watch something, you have everything that you want to watch that is available to stream at the top of the list. No more debate, no more hunting, just turn on Plex, click your Watchlist, and start streaming instantly.
These new features will free and are available to test as part of a public beta.
