    @selenagomez @hbomax Come here my sweet selly baby. No problem , I will live without money for sometime. Mainly I feels to invest in stock markets like shares holders. But my heart says why to simply trust any brokers , it makes no sense to me, if it doesn't have big profit. That's why I feels not 🍫

    @HBOMaxHelp On apple TV and on the app and everywhere I use the service I turn subtitles off and every next episode they are back on. Are you aware of this issue that many other people are having?

  • AutisticAt4eist (Haunted) Castle: Long in the tooth and claw! (@AutisticAt4eist) reported

    @hbomax So. I know that I have been a LONG WAY from the only one to complain about there being no damned way to turn off autoplay when watching shows on your site. I am probably just the only one who's DONE WITH IT. You have until New Year's to fix this crap, or I'm out.

  • Shirin_Etego arcadia molinas (@Shirin_Etego) reported

    @succession @hbomax please help i get the wheel of death when i try to watch new episode. sos

  • justbmc Brandon Clark (@justbmc) reported

    @hbomax @insecurehbo Trying to watch now but the app keeps crashing. Phone and Fire Stick. Can someone there help?

  • racecar910 Drex (@racecar910) reported

    @hbomax why are there so many problems with your app ? Would really like to watch Succession and Curb Your Enthusiasm, but once again nothing will play. Yours is the only streaming app of the 5 I have that is consistently problematic.

  • jdem_7 Josh (@jdem_7) reported

    Dear @hbomax every time I press play on a show or movie, nothing happens and it takes me to the previous screen 😩 this has been going on for a week, please help!

  • GarrettMurphC Garrett Civian (@GarrettMurphC) reported

    @hbomax Not working on HBO Max in Spain. Says the episode is available but then says “Title not available” when you try to play.

  • dcperry DC Perry (@dcperry) reported

    @hbomax Subtitles are on every time I start a new episode on my Apple TV app. Impossible to get them to stay off. How do I fix this?

  • FredrikMMG Fredrik M.M.G (@FredrikMMG) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @racecar910 Have the same problem. Newest ep of Succession won't play :(

  • brettdresseur AshD (@brettdresseur) reported

    @SadeWho @Xfinity @hbomax Girl, as a last resort Xfinity had me remove it and add it and it still did not work…

  • billprady Bill Prady (@billprady) reported

    Pro tip to @hbomax app users trying to watch a downloaded show on an airplane if you’re using the in-flight Wi-Fi: turn off the Wi-Fi otherwise the app will try to load tons of graphics over the slow connection. Pro tip to @hbomax: fix this.
