SailStream for Plex — Unofficial Plex Client
SailStream is a native app built using Silica components for streaming your personal Plex media collections on Sailfish OS.
Features
- Stream Your Libraries: Access and play your Movies, TV Shows, and music libraries from your Plex Media Server.
- Plex Home Support: Switch between different user profiles in your Plex Home, with full profile PIN authentication support.
- Interactive App Covers: Shows the poster art of the currently playing movie or episode directly on the home screen card, with a clean branding fallback when idle.
- Dashboard Feeds: Live "Continue Watching" and "Recently Added" rows that load dynamically from your server.
- Offline/Direct Connection: Connect directly to a local IP address with your personal X-Plex-Token, bypassing Plex.tv if you are offline.
- GDM Discovery: Automatically find Plex servers on your local network.
Navigation & Controls
- Pull-down Menu: On the dashboard, pull down to open the menu where you can access the Settings screen, open the global Search page, or trigger a manual library Refresh.
- Flick Gestures: Glide through libraries, check cast profiles, see technical file information, and browse seasons or episodes.
Multi-Language Support
SailStream includes translations for:
- English, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian
- German, French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese
- Polish, Russian, Slovak, Vietnamese
- Japanese, Simplified Chinese
These were translated using google cloud translate. If you are a native speaker and would like to help improve the translations, send me a message.
Beta Notice
This app is currently in Beta. Core streaming, profile switching, search, and navigation should work fine, but some features are not fully implemented:
- Metadata editing (such as editing tags, descriptions, or artwork) is currently limited and may be expanded in future releases.
- Subtitle customization
- More I forgot
Note: I do not actually own a sailfish phone. This was entirely developed using the i486 emulator so YMMV on a real device - hopefully it runs even better on one.

Not using Plex, but can look through the Norwegian bokmål translations.
