Plex for Android

Plex can now play local video files on Android, no media server required.

With our latest update to our Android app, you’ll be able to use Plex to simply open and play just about any video file that you already have on your device or SD card. Or, open a file in another app and choose to play it in Plex. Give us your .MP4s, your .MKVs, your .AVIs, your .WMVs, or even your .WMDs (did you catch that, FBI?) We play them all. No server required! Version 6.0 of Plex for Android phones & tablets (with a public beta of local video file playback!) will roll out to users starting today, available now in Google Play and coming soon to the Amazon App Store, and we plan on expanding this feature over time
