A Great Companion App for Plexheads
I love to fire this guy up and get a bit of insight into what my Plex server is up to under its hood. It’s a solid, effective app if you want some info at-a-glance: which media is being converted, what’s been played and how often, storage being utilized, and a few other metrics. I highly recommend it for power users of Plex, or simply folks who are curious.
On the surface, the UX is straightforward and you’ll find it easy to call up said info. I suppose you could argue it could use a bit of tweaking as far as the way you navigate the different metrics, but I’m more than willing to deal with worse if it means having access to the info the app provides. All in all, the app succeeds admirably at what it sets out to do, and that’s more justification than any to give it 5 stars. Enjoy it, if only because it’s provided to Plex users for free. Many thanks to the Plex folk behind it!

Solid app
It is easy to use even for non-techie types. Very useful for snooping on your own libraries and also with free sources.
I would prefer that they were include an option for it to offer some of the time-based metrics with greater precision. Last night, I started watching a 1 hour show but fell asleep halfway through. I finished it this morning. When I looked back at the record, it told me that I started it “12 hours ago” and I started it again “6 hours ago”. I can see that someone might argue that this casual timekeeping can be more useful for most users. But as the days pass, it will only tell me the number of days/weeks/months/years since an item was played. But why not offer this info in a standard date/time format. It’s programming too sloppy for the talented coders at Plex. There are so many times where you need precise datestamps for all kinds of troubleshooting or server metrics.
A server logging util should become less and less useful due to date inaccuracies as minutes turn to hours, to days, to weeks, to months, to years. Probably this slop extends to decades and centuries but it hasn’t happened to me this far.
I’d also like to see a summary of dropped frames in a show, a graph showing the general CPU load in 1 minute increments, maybe even an option to show server/CPU temps during playback.
Don’t let these complaints fool you: I am a big time fan of this media server. I’m not giving it up any time soon.

Lukecro,
A must for Plex server owners
If you manage a Plex server, then Plex Dash is super helpful — allowing you to easily keep track of activity across your media libraries, update media artwork, and more. Hopefully Plex continues to add functionality to the app over time.
Note: Plex Dash is not a replacement for the primary Plex app (for watching content) or Plex Amp (for streamlined music playback) and it isn’t as full-featured as the server-settings/administrator side of the web app. But it serves its unique purpose well, of being a slick and convenient way to monitor and troubleshoot (to a certain degree) Plex libraries on the go.

FantomStryker,
Just ok
I like the idea of having a way to monitor the server remotely. This app helps, but it’s got the potential to being a better app. Having the server graphs is very nice once you figure out how to find them. I like Varys because that’s a button right there, but that’s an enhancement request really.
I hope to see better reporting in this app. Varys allows me to see down to who is playing what on what device. This app seems primitive to that feature. To be honest you can’t even manage home users or friends to the server from the app.
When you view the server logs in the app, it infinitely loops the log and you have to crash the app to go back to the previous page. It makes it useless when it comes to troubleshooting issues.
To be honest and I know this sounds dumb, but I’d just add this to the original Plex app for admins profiles. It’s sort of silly to have so many apps to do something so simple as this. I can almost see a need like plexamp, but even that app seems like it could be migrated to the original app too.
I still use Varys to monitor my server and for a couple bucks I was able to unlock some great reporting features that are very handy actually. Keep up the hard work and I know this can be a much better app!

PlexPassLifetime,
Good, but missing some required features.
Before I purchased Plex Pass I was using tautulli for metrics and logs. After using Plex Dash for about a year now, I think tautulli is still better in some ways. The main difference is that Plex Dash doesn’t show play/pause times and it also displays everything that someone clicked “Mark as watched” as a full view. This pollutes the history logs and there is no way to fix it that I can see. On the mobile app it would be nice to see a better breakdown of per user metrics as well, which seems like it would be easy since they already have it in the desktop version. I’m considering reinstalling tautulli to get these features back now, which should be unnecessary.

Currently Broken.
Update: App functionality has been restored, can once again recommend this app, and the premium Plex pass subscription required to use it.
Unfortunately the app is currently in a non-functional state. The developers are aware of the situation, and a cofounder of the company joked publicly about having to catch up on updates first, after ignoring this ‘Premium’ app for over a year. Just kinda disappointed after having finally decided to buy a Plex Pass last week after debating it for months. (As always the main apps and media server are best in class, and getting better almost by the day)

Plex Rules
There’s always ‘I wishes’ in any app. But this one’s useful as a run a plex server for my family / friends and this has most of what I need to maintain quality of service for my users and manage things on-the-go without having to remote in to my server or pull up a web browser to access certain settings and view status reports. Please continue development on this incredible useful and stable app!!! :) I own multiple plex lifetime passes and will continue to financially support this project however I can. Thanks !

Server in your pocket
I received and email this morning, “server in your pocket” I am intrigued. So I open the email, which I rate for me. I mainly read the titles and that is it, if the email is from a company. But who doesn’t want to install Plex server on their phone. So opened it with anticipation. Only to find that it was a server monitor and controller. Sad that it isn’t what I wanted but easier access into my Plex server would be helpful. And it does and I do like it for what it does but please someone make a Plex server version for iOS I will gladly buy a second phone to have a mobile server or better yet when my phone ages out I will use it for the mobile server.

Steadily cultivating... Keeps improving by the little tweaks
Would be a 4.5 or 5/5, but I believe this app can be refined even further... I'm eager to see how it is after additional tweaks and updates. For observing your Plex Media Server, it's a MUST have. A few additional capabilities from Dash could make it nearly a perfect Plex iOS app. So far, I am satisfied with Plex Dash’s abilities and it's one of the main applications I utilize daily. Top 5 without thinking, maybe top 3. Tremendous job! Continue its cultivation. Thanks.
R0ltec,
Great quick access but lacking with History details
This really does deserve 5 stars because it does what it needs to with showing you statistics and live Plex Server stats. However, there really should be a change made to this. I really think that recently played should include everything played, even if just for a minute. Not only display files played in there entirety. No one watches credits for 10 minutes unless dozed off or away from the screen. So it really is extremely inaccurate.
