Plex for Android updates and brings in automatic photo backup Support

Plex is one of our favorite media streaming server applications available. Sure, there are plenty of others out there, but the Plex app, the support and the updates that Plex works to bring keeps them on our top favorite must haves list. Today Plex has started rolling out another update to the Android app that is sure be welcomed by the thousands out there that use it. The new update adds in an auto backup option for your camera photos.

This is pretty great for a number of reasons, mainly because they are backing up to your personal storage on your server vs some cloud somewhere. I have yet to give it a whirl, but I also imagine that it also means you can view those photos through Chromecast as well.

If you don’t have Plex yet, it is a pretty simple app to use and understand. The real question you will need to ask yourself is if you want to buy the app or sign up for a Plex Pass subscription. Personally, a Plex Pass subscription is the way to go in my book, especially since this feature requires Plex Pass to use, for now.  Hit the link below to go grab the update, or to learn about it for the first time.
