  • DAN8087 Dan808 (@DAN8087) reported

    @TheMatrixMovie @hbomax I watched some of it, felt like I was watching a really terrible episode of Vampire diaries on the CW. Save your brain cells for consuming something useful , this ain’t it

  • insightful_so SoInsightful (@insightful_so) reported

    @hbomax Fix the captions in your app please. I have it set to CC as default, but still they don’t show up until I manually select them.

  • bdotshiny bdotshiny (@bdotshiny) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Oh no! I will be glad to help revive it, by the power of Moly 🌸🥂🍾

  • MrsVincible Mrs Vincible (@MrsVincible) reported

    @writerlane @hbomax Yes this what I have been saying! Everything about @hbomax sucks with or without ads and it’s one of the most expensive OTT platforms out there! With the terrible UI and zero customer satisfaction!

  • sneaker13130144 sneakerlife (@sneaker13130144) reported

    @hbomax The show is terrible! And I am the biggest SATC fan

  • xigentplan Heinrich (@xigentplan) reported

    So HBO Max (@hbomax) has the most expensive & arguably the the worst streaming app out there. Whoever is in charge of running the app isn’t really different from one of the characters in Succession if they are comfortable with the performance of the app as is. cc:@aforssell

  • KenzoHeartnette That Time I Hit A Lick On The Demon Lord (@KenzoHeartnette) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @ListerDoug It’s not working on Crome Cast

  • iCodyOnline Cody Harrell (@iCodyOnline) reported

    @TheMatrixMovie @hbomax I grew up with the 3 original movies. Loved them, and watch them to this day. This new movie is awful and should have never been made.

  • statsprovenutn The Dude (@statsprovenutn) reported

    @hbomax Hey ding dongs: we just tried to get on HBO max to watch something only to learn it had signed us off and wouldn't let us back on. We got to spend time on the phone with our provider to fix it. On Xmas night. Do better. Much better.

  • Jackhamby84 Jack hamby (@Jackhamby84) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp On both android and my ps4 hbo max doesnt work. It wont allow me to watch anything at all.

  • winterlove_kate kate is in peru 🤙 ¡ feliz navidad ! (@winterlove_kate) reported

    i shouldn’t be complaining bc i’m on vacation, but this is my first christmas away from my family and all i wanted to do was watch one of the movies i downloaded before i left the states, and @hbomax full on not working without wifi or data for something i downloaded really sucks

  • marnaDenise marna Denise (@marnaDenise) reported

    @hbomax you have great shows but the app is by far the worst app I have! It's constantly restarting or telling me it can't play a title. I'm sick of it. I pay for this and it should work. It's annoying!

  • sayweller Lindsay Weller (@sayweller) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp dm’d you. Plz help.

  • Kingleeek Lee (@Kingleeek) reported

    I’m so sick of @hbomax not working for me.

  • ashpencolorado Ashley (@ashpencolorado) reported

    @ancienthacker @hbomax Same issue here. Nothing plays on Roku.

  • MrBlasphemy4 MrBlasphemy (@MrBlasphemy4) reported

    @VINCEisGRAPHIC @TheMatrixMovie @hbomax They literally just remade all three movies and put them in to one movie. There is no perspective. You don't get emotionally attached to a single person in the movie. The directing/production was terrible.

  • TheIBHMedia Dan R (@TheIBHMedia) reported

    Watching the #BeanieBaby documentary on @hbomax I can’t help but think of the correlation to the current #NFT craze.

  • chrisg8319 Chris G (@chrisg8319) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hi, I can’t sign in to my account on any of my devices. It’s just a cycle of asking me to sign in over an over

  • BBorndahl Benjamin Borndahl (@BBorndahl) reported

    @comedianpreach @SpauldingMark @hbomax Yes, of course it is not the studio limiting the audience by making every character dark, emo and distancing family audiences. Must be a conspiracy and not the quality.

  • highendtheori 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞. (@highendtheori) reported from Charlotte, North Carolina

    @hbomax this show is awful. i’m waiting til it gets good, but it has not.

  • StevenCptRogers Steve Rogers (@StevenCptRogers) reported

    @TheMatrixMovie @hbomax This was disappointing. It wasn’t terrible but it sure as hell wasn’t good.

  • bjjweyen John Weyen (@bjjweyen) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have been having trouble streaming HBO Max through my xbox one since Wednesday. I've got google fiber and checked the connection everything is optimal on my end. Everytime I play a video it freezes, shows the dots, then the dots disappear and the video remqins froze

  • katerose1124 Katelyn Moody (@katerose1124) reported

    Is @hbomax down for anyone else? Been getting an error message every time I try entering the app

  • nicRus nic (@nicRus) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @BabyTrabba You haven’t replied to my issue from 2 hours ago. I have the app and an account. Wanna help me?

  • SDMizzen 🦋 Mizzen 🦋 (@SDMizzen) reported

    Since @hbomax is giving me issues, I switched over to @disneyplus and finished Loki. SO. DAMN. GOOD. Cannot wait for Season 2!

  • SophiaNichole_ SK (@SophiaNichole_) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Can’t take any pill when @hbomax is a frozen black screen. All other movies work just fine, just not the Matrix. Having a blue Christmas over here

  • SandwichExplor1 Sandwich Explorer (@SandwichExplor1) reported

    Anybody else having @hbomax streaming issues?

  • nicRus nic (@nicRus) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp you’re completely ignoring my tweets for help. Can you please answer me?
