Free in beta

The Android TV app on Fire TV, and the phone app on Fire tablets, wherever the device runs Fire OS. Amazon invites testers by email, so sign up with the address on the Amazon account your device uses.

  • Fire TV Stick 4K, 4K Max & Cube Fire OS
  • Fire TV Edition televisions Fire OS
  • Fire tablets Not yet tried
  • Stick 4K Select & Stick HD (2026), on Vega OS Not supported

For Fire TV and Fire tablets on Fire OS. Use the address of the Amazon account your device is signed in to. Confirm it from your inbox, and Amazon emails you the install link once you’re added.

Lagu needs Fire OS. Amazon’s newest sticks run Vega OS instead, which can’t run Android apps. To check yours, open Settings, My Fire TV, About.

What you need

A Plex account, a Plex Media Server, and a music library on it. That’s the whole list.

No Plex password in Lagu

Sign-in happens through Plex’s own PIN flow. Your password never touches Lagu.

No Plex Pass needed

The core player — lossless, gapless, downloads, Remote — works on a free Plex account. Analysis-driven extras light up when the server provides the data.

Away from home?

Streaming from outside your network needs a Plex Pass on the server owner’s account, or a Remote Watch Pass on your own. That one is Plex policy.

Verify your download

Check the Linux build
against our key.

Each Linux release comes with a SHA256SUMS file and a detached signature made with Lagu’s release key. The same key is built into the app, which checks it before a Linux update installs. The macOS and Windows builds are signed through Apple and Microsoft, and your system checks them when you open them.

$1.99 once

Same deal on Google Play — buy once, keep it on your phone, tablet, and Android TV, and share it with your household.

  • Phone, tablet & TV, one purchase
  • Google Play Family Library
  • Buy in open testing, keep it at launch

$1.99 is the launch price, and it unlocks the whole player. Plex-fetched lyrics and sonic stations depend on your Plex server’s own analysis, which comes with Plex Pass on the server. Loudness leveling works on any server: Lagu measures what your server hasn’t. Fire TV is free during the beta.

*On Android, Google Play only lets a paid app go to testers for free through its internal test, which holds 100 people, and those places are taken. Android testers now join through open testing at the $1.99 store price. It’s the same purchase you’d make at launch, so you keep Lagu when it leaves beta. Free codes go up in the forum’s Announcements from time to time.
