    @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.

  • beelizzyemmy 🌻 Brittany 🌻 (@beelizzyemmy) reported

    @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?

  • 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…

  • CatLadyLawyer Zoë (@CatLadyLawyer) reported

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

  • 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.

  • Elle_Deezy_ Elle Deezy (@Elle_Deezy_) reported

    @hbomax My app keeps crashing. Every time I tap on a show to watch the screen goes black & the app closes. It’s crashing on both my iPhone & my iPad. I’ve never had issues before today.

  • CalixLeighReign Cālix Leigh-Reign (@CalixLeighReign) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Roku, Firefox and Chrome. Doesn't work on any of those. I press play, it returns me to the dashboard

  • Dinambit R2S (@Dinambit) reported

    @hbomax batman beyond with problem in the subtitles season 1 episode 09. when i select the portuguese subtitle it doesn't appear, even with the option of subtitle in portuguese 🤨

  • 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.
