It's always a good day when you wake up and find a shiny new version of your favorite app, and today is that day for Plex for iOS users, with the media player adding mobile server abilities on top of a stack of other improvements. Plex announced the release of version 3.1 for its universal iOS app of the same name, detailing a raft of big changes in a blog post on Thursday night. At the top of that list is a new Mobile Media Server feature, which allows users of the iOS version to play synced content or view photo albums on another Plex client -- perfect for visiting a like-minded friend with your iPhone or iPad and sharing images of your recent vacation to their Plex-equipped Roku, for example. The feature even works between iOS and Android clients for beaming content between them.
