About Plex
Plex for Linux is your client for playback on the Linux desktop. It features the point and
click interface you see in your browser but uses a more powerful playback engine as well as
some other advanced features.
How to install Plex
- Click Download — the developer's official website opens in a new tab.

- Prefer the command line? With Flatpak you can install and update it with: flatpak install flathub tv.plex.PlexDesktop
- Open Plex once it finishes installing.
