    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, On my first day of work, I took a nap during a lunch time. When I woke up, the manager saw me. Where have you been? We've been looking for you. I said, oh, sorry let me go back to work. He said, you should go home first, you slept for more than 24 hour. 🥺

  • treehcapital Rob Majteles (@treehcapital) reported

    Why is @hbomax streaming quality so very awful? Seems impossible in this day and age to be so very bad at this?

  • Maury_Brovich Maury Brovich (@Maury_Brovich) reported

    @hbomax if you want your app to never work right and stop loading the show as you're watching it every fking time, this is the app for you!!

  • TerriLou1978 Terri (@TerriLou1978) reported

    @Supermansings @hbomax I watched it the other day and it was time I can never get back. Awful.

    @hbomax Fix your player

  • pmendir pmendir (@pmendir) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Everything is up to date. It’s not my network, this would most likely be an app issue. Did you try to reproduce it?

  • kekatron E R I K A (@kekatron) reported

    Dear @hbomax (well, in Asia, it's still HBO Go), fix the damn UI!!!!! It's not appealing at all and response is sloooooowwwwwww. You have nice shows but we can't see it because it's like navigating to a pirated stream site.

  • pinktrizaratops Zara (@pinktrizaratops) reported

    @hbomax please FIX THE CAPTIONS. All of your shows are messed up, requiring multiple restarts to try to sync the captions up. The deaf and HoH deserve to enjoy HBO as well, and right now it’s very very difficult

  • _LILZ215 Trustnonebuthebagひ💰 (@_LILZ215) reported

    @hbomax Fix your app.

    Holy **** did they actually update and fix @hbomax app on Roku? I can actually browse, EVEN PLAY SOMETHING without it crashing? Am I dead???

  • KeisterBunnies SlickaBitch (@KeisterBunnies) reported

    @hbomax Maybe you guys should concentrate on improving your platforms work ability because it is god awful. Try rewinding a movie while you’re watching it and enjoy the five minutes of hell. @hbomax

  • SionisSawyer Jacob Sawyer (@SionisSawyer) reported

    @JamesGunn @hbomax @DCpeacemaker Do you know how it will be streamed or shown in the UK, worst part about not having HBO Max is trying to track down where everything ends up

  • OriGamiFreePoem Ori Gami aka Jan Keough (@OriGamiFreePoem) reported

    @hbomax What a horrible award mistake. Awful performance

  • psychoactive913 JFTVPR (@psychoactive913) reported

    @hbomax you guys really need to work on your app. Logs me out of my account on PS4 when I switch in between apps, won’t let me press play or pause or exit a show on my ROKU. Great content but shittiest app. #getittogether

  • Vote2022_ Rob 🇺🇸 (@Vote2022_) reported

    @hbomax HBO has the worst app layout, just shows the name of the title and no description. When I hover over a title, tell me what the damn movie or show is about.. Just like Netflix does and maybe give me a quick preview. @hbomax @HBO

  • LilahJagger Lilah Jagger (@LilahJagger) reported

    @analeyesr Same with @AppleTV and @hbomax and my internet is just fine. Disney+ and Netflix has no issues. Takes me 3 hrs to watch 1 episode of See or Titans. Going to cancel them both.

  • corey777steward Corey in the House (@corey777steward) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m sorry for the rudeness. But it’s a roku. It’s been up to date, and I even uninstalled and reinstalled The app and it keeps crashing. My internet is fine and other devices have the same problem.

  • bacardiego_ ꧁ ༒ diego ༒꧂ (@bacardiego_) reported

  • davispr Kelly Davis (@davispr) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I accidentally mistyped my own email address while signing up for an account and can’t figure out how to change it. Help?

  • DexterCalvin817 Mark (@DexterCalvin817) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp fix the app! You can see all over Twitter that your app is the problem. I’ve re-downloaded it and it still sucks. Constantly just spinning. What will it take for you to fix it?!?!

  • gsepulveda35 Hanzo Hasashi (@gsepulveda35) reported

    @hbomax There's something you don't understand about me. I work through pain.

  • DexterCalvin817 Mark (@DexterCalvin817) reported

    @hbomax Your app is horrible. I just subscribed and I’ve re-downloaded your app to my television and it’s constantly spinning and spinning. It’s not the tv, it’s less than a year old. And the other apps including Netflix and Amazon work fine. When is a fix coming?

  • GizmatoMo jnell 🐨 (@GizmatoMo) reported

    @hbomax Someone please help me turn off the audio descriptions on my Roku 4! I never turned them on, but I’m finding it impossible to shut them off! 😫
