⚠️You will never be asked to provide any credit card information, everything is free⚠️

Step 1: Create a Plex Account Passo 1: Crea un Account Plex

Visit plex.tv.
Click on the "Sign Up" or "☰" at the top right corner.
Choose a way to create an account; there are 4 options!
Click on "Create an Account".

Step 1 is done 🎉🎉🎉 Remember the email address you used for signing up. Write it down, tattoo it on your arm—whatever works!

Step 2: Notify Me ❤️ Passo 2: Avvisami ❤️

Send me (Lorenzo) a message containing the email address you used to sign up for Plex. If you can also include your username, Plex will generate one randomly for you.

I'm not stealing any of your information, chill out 😩. Plex will use the email to send you a request. This is how you will access my library.

Step 3: Accept Plex Email Request Passo 3: Accetta l'invito Email di Plex

Wait for an email invitation. It should arrive within a few minutes. 🕙
Open the invitation email and click on "I accept the invitation". You can also accept my friend request which comes in a separate email.
❗Log in to your Plex account if prompted.
My library should now be accessible in your Plex account. 🎥
⚠️ This may vary slightly if you are doing it on mobile. Regardless, whatever Plex asks you, just accept it and you should be good.
Note❗: If you don't see my library, please try to look for it on the sidebar, and if you still can't find it there, then check in the "more >" section.

You are ready to watch! 🎉🎉🎉 Sei pronto per guardare! 🎉🎉🎉

You are all set to watch movies and shows on my Plex library. You can now access Plex with your account on any device you want—TV, tablet, phone, and computer! Everything will be there!

This doesn't end here... Let's kick it up a notch and make it even better by configuring Overseerr so you can add your own movies and shows you want to watch with just a click of a button. 🖱️

This will be an app on your phone!
You've got this! 💪

Step 4: Accessing Overseerr (Mobile) Passo 4: Accedere a Overseerr (Mobile)

❗These steps are necessary only the first time you sign up! They exist for security purposes. You won't have to do this again; the app will log you straight in.❗

Open your phone and go to Safari. Safari is needed! You can't use Chrome or any other browser.
❗If you have an Android device, visit this guide. Replace Step 5 with what the guide says.❗
Go to overseerr.lorenzoorio.com. You will be met with a Cloudflare page. These nice guys handle the security for me. Don't be scared 😅
Enter the email that you used for your Plex account and click on "Send me a code".
You will receive an email in a few minutes from Cloudflare containing a random code. Enter it and then click "Sign in".
❗If you don't receive any code, first check your spam email, then wait a bit more. If you still haven't received anything, message me since I might need to add your email to Cloudflare.❗
Click on "Use your Overseerr account"; I would have created it beforehand.
❗Don't use the big orange "Sign in" button; that's for other things!!❗
Use the email address you used for Plex and the temporary password provided to you, which is "changemepls".
Change the password!!!!! Click on your profile icon (top right corner) and select "Settings".
Click on "General" and select "Password". There you can change it to whatever you want.
🎉🎉🎉

You made it! You can now request movies and shows to be added to the library directly from the app by clicking "Request". You can also see what's coming soon and what's popular.

Step 5: Make Overseerr an App on Your Home Screen (It's Easy!)

Make sure you are on Safari on your iPhone or iPad and on the Overseerr website (overseerr.lorenzoorio.com).
Tap the Share button at the bottom of the Safari window. It looks like a square with an arrow pointing upwards.
Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
Choose a name for the shortcut (e.g., "Overseerr") and tap Add.
Now, you'll see the icon on your home screen. Tap the new icon to launch Overseerr like an app!
🎉🎉🎉

Perfect! Everything is all set!!! You can now access my library and request movies and shows from your phone.
Watch movies and shows using Plex and request new ones using Overseerr!

🎉🎉🎉
⚠️ Even though it's rare, you might come across some strange or inappropriate movie covers (e.g., weird Asian adult covers) in Overseerr. 😅 This is totally normal and happens because some movies aren't correctly categorized on IMDb or other databases.

Don't worry; these aren't part of the actual library and can be ignored. If you see something inappropriate, feel free to let me know, and I'll fix it as soon as possible! 👍
