Show HN: Canopy – A kid-friendly Plex client for iOS (opens in new tab)

I'm a developer and dad who wanted to hand my daughter the iPad without her getting lost in Plex's UI. She navigates YouTube Kids fine — big pictures, tap to play — but Plex's menus were totally beyond her.

  I already had managed users and rating filters set up, so the content was
  handled. It was purely a UI problem. So I built Canopy.

  It's a native iOS app that connects to your existing Plex server and gives
  kids a simple carousel interface — big posters, tap to watch. It respects your
   managed user restrictions so you don't have to re-configure anything.

  Features: poster grid UI, PIN-gated parental controls, screen time limits,
  continue watching, and full support for Plex managed users and content
  ratings.

  Built with SwiftUI, no analytics or tracking, no subscriptions. $4.99 on the
  App Store.

  Happy to answer questions about the build, the Plex API, or anything else.
