Home Video Club for Plex (iOS) — looking for feedback from people with big libraries

Built an iOS app called Home Video Club for Plex users who have larger libraries and want faster browsing + cleaner request workflows.

What I’d love feedback on:

  • browse speed across shelves/lists
  • search relevance (exact title matches)
  • movie/TV detail quality
  • missing-episode request flow + confirmation

If you want to test, comment with:

  • device model
  • approx library size (movies/shows)

TMDb note: optional, but recommended for richer metadata/art
Free key: https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api

I can share the TestFlight link in comments/DM.

First comment
TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/T9XQeZAr
Best feedback for me: load speed, search accuracy, and request flow reliability.

Home Video Club (iOS) — looking for Plex users with large libraries to beta test

Hey r/PleX — I built an iOS app called Home Video Club for people who run their own Plex libraries, and I’m looking for testers with big libraries.

I need feedback from people with roughly:

  • 1,500+ movies and/or 200+ shows
  • iPhone

What I’m testing:

  • fast browsing across shelves/lists
  • accurate search ranking
  • artwork/detail loading quality
  • request flow + reliability

Important: no Plex sharing needed. Use your own Plex account/server only.
TMDb note: the app works without it, but for best metadata/art quality you’ll want a free TMDb API key. (optional but recommended for better metadata/art): get a free API key at https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api

If you’re willing to help, comment:

  • approx library size
  • iPhone version

I’ll send TestFlight details.
Thanks — I really want to harden this for large real-world libraries.
