Search for Bridgerton, and you’ll see that you can play it on Netflix. It also works on the web, as you can see above. Plex universal search should work on mobile devices, dongles, and smart TVs. But you’ll obviously need an account to start streaming. In other words, you won’t have to have an active Netflix subscription linked to your Plex account to see Netflix results for your queries. Plex universal search will surface results on various platforms without requiring the user to link to those streaming services first. Once you find your target, Plex will let you start streaming on that service, assuming you have an active subscription. The service will let you search for titles across every possible service, not just Netflix. “The app dance, going from app to app to find something to watch, just doesn’t make any sense,” Plex’s senior product and design director Jason Williams said. Plex universal search: Results for Bridgerton show Netflix is the only place to watch the show. In addition to universal search, Plex is also launching a discovery section in the app that will highlight new titles just released on streaming services. But if you’re already a Plex user, it’ll be nice to now have a one-stop shop. Of note, a similar feature has been available for a long time on IMDb. And universal search is the pillar of such an experience. People want one screen where they can search for specific shows and movies to watch. Plex wants to become the go-to app for all your streaming needs. And the feature is available to users free of charge.Īll you need is the Plex app to get started. That’s where Plex can help with its universal search engine. However, if you know exactly which movie or TV show you want to watch but don’t know where it’s streaming, you used to have to search each individual streaming service. If you don’t have anything exciting in your queue and want to discover the next thing to binge on, the universal search feature won’t help you.
Plex or any other service attempting to fix the universal search problem can’t prevent that Netflix problem. The more people in the room, the longer it takes to settle on something new to watch. You often find yourself scrolling vertically and horizontally for minutes without picking a movie or series. Deciding what to watch next on Netflix or any other streaming service is a chore.
