Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to use Phlix?

A Plex account (free or Plex Pass) and a Plex Media Server with at least one photo library. Your device must be running iOS 17 or later.

How much does Phlix cost?

Phlix is free to download. Browsing your library, timeline, search, favorites, and on-device slideshows are free forever. Phlix Pro unlocks unlimited offline downloads and big-screen slideshows — available as a one-time $19.99 purchase or $6.99/year. You can also try Pro free for 14 days with no subscription and no charge.

How do I install Phlix on another device?

Phlix is free to download on any device. If you purchased Phlix Pro (lifetime), it is tied to your Apple ID and available on any device signed into the same account, including through Apple Family Sharing.

I don't see any photo libraries.

Phlix only displays photo-type libraries from your Plex server. Make sure your Plex Media Server has at least one library with the type set to "Photos." You can add one in your Plex server's settings.

Can I use Phlix outside my home network?

Yes, as long as your Plex server allows remote access. Phlix connects to whichever server address is reachable — local or remote.

Does Phlix work with Plex Pass?

Phlix works with both free Plex accounts and Plex Pass. No Plex Pass is required.

Is Phlix made by Plex?

No. Phlix is an independent application and is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Plex, Inc. Plex, the Plex Play logo, and Plex Media Server are trademarks of Plex GmbH and used under a license. Phlix uses Plex's publicly available API to connect to your server.

How do I clear the image cache?

Go to Settings > Storage > Clear Image Cache. This frees up disk space without affecting your favorites or preferences.
