Confused - is it free to use?

Post by mike_bike_kite »

I set it up on my QNAP TS 251+ and scanned my media.
I've signed up using an email and password.
I can cast to my chromecast (1) ddevice from my chrome browser with no problem.
When I try the same from my android mobile - I get a Plex stopped working message.

Do I need to purchase something?
TS-251+ and 2 x 4TB disks in RAID1
Will use for: File sharing, Plex, BT, Backup

It is confusing as some players are free and others at a cost.

Android app I think is like $4.99 forever
