Plezy
Plezy is a media server client for macOS that lets you browse, stream, and download content from Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby servers.
What is Plezy?
Plezy is a native media server client for macOS focused on playing personal video and audio libraries from Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby. It helps users bring multiple self-hosted media servers into one app for browsing, search, playback, offline viewing, and synchronized watch progress. On Mac, it supports modern playback features such as broad codec compatibility, HDR playback, subtitles, picture-in-picture, and resume across devices. It also includes music playback, downloads for offline access, and shared viewing features for watching together with other people. Plezy is suited to users who want an alternative front end for their home media setup without relying on a subscription-based streaming catalog. The app is published by Edvard Wikhall.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Plezy is a legitimate media client for personal media servers. It normally needs network access to connect to your Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby libraries, and downloaded media may be stored locally for offline playback. If you use shared viewing, remote connections, or account integrations, be mindful of what server access and watch-history data you choose to connect. Keep the app updated and review any connected services you no longer use.
Recommendation: Keep Plezy if you use it to access a home media server or offline downloads on your Mac. If you no longer use Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby with this app, you can remove it like any other user-installed app, and any Plezy-specific downloads or settings may stop being available afterward.
