    Fix your trash app for Samsung TVs againnnn 🙄 @HBOMaxHelp

  • MarTiLinK Martin (@MarTiLinK) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp When are you going to fix the subtitles issue! They appear randomly on the screen in 3 or 4 lines! I have the latest Google Chromecast with Google tv! I'll wait a few days before unsubscribe

  • TheKuses Shawn Kuse (@TheKuses) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp So I just resubscribed today through the Google Play app. I'm all signed in appropriately on the app and on my phone with the same login and it says I still need a subscription. what gives? I've tried everything. Signed in and out! Uninstalled and reinstalled the app

  • pmcc0324 Patrick McCarthy (@pmcc0324) reported

    Across different devices, the streaming service that consistently gives me problems is @hbomax Every time.

  • wisdm__ tia (@wisdm__) reported

    @hbomax I’m begging y’all, please fix your interface.

  • Steve86255127 Steve (@Steve86255127) reported

    @fsanders @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp Pick any app on any device. Problem is on hbos end. Stop asking for dms

  • MatthewKayes Matthew Kayes (@MatthewKayes) reported

    Is @hbomax the worst #android app? Can you name a worse one?

  • Ash_Thax BLACK LIVES MATTER (@Ash_Thax) reported

    When we know who #GossipGirl is, the basic premise of the show just doesn’t work. Can I get my $9.99 back @hbomax?

  • Hailey_Darling Hailey ⚡️ (@Hailey_Darling) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp That being said, I’m tired of these ridiculous errors. I have version 50.30 installed on my PS5. What now HBO peeps? 🙄

  • Hailey_Darling Hailey ⚡️ (@Hailey_Darling) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Again, having to do extra steps just to watch your shows is super lame and is making a lot of people upset. Why is it so hard to fix this issue on your end? You’re platform has been out for awhile now, it shouldn’t be having as many issues as it is.

  • jjayjay1975 JDCowsert (@jjayjay1975) reported

    @hbomax @HBO @HBOPR why oh why can’t y’all get your app fixed? If it’s not constant ERROR messages, it’s constant episodes pausing, skipping, muting, fast forwarding, etc.. how does a mega conglomerate have such an undependable product? A product I pay for.

  • Onthebeach205 Coastal Dreamer (@Onthebeach205) reported

    @Christi59870163 @hbomax I have that issue for several weeks. I called them. They do nothing. It's only with Roku. And now shows I watch do not go to the next episode. We are paying for a garbage app

  • tsedzZ Todoroki Tina (@tsedzZ) reported

    Worst app ever but s/o to @hbomax for having the whole Oceans franchise 🌊

  • _RaeNicole_ Rachel 🌼 (@_RaeNicole_) reported

    @hbomax dude yall GOT to fix your tv app it’s shocking how bad it is

  • DanielMagnan2 Daniel Magnan (@DanielMagnan2) reported

    Just finished "Closer" on @hbomax. Channels director Mike Nichols (The Graduate, Wolf, The Birdcage) earliest film "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?". This is 🔥, acidic dark 'romance' film with Jude Law, Natalie Portman, Julia Roberts, and Clive Owen playing terrible people.

  • john40683980 john (@john40683980) reported

    @spacejammovie @hbomax Let me guess… They steal the abilities of pro NBA players and need to find someone to help them win the game and get them back? Or did Hollywood write a new plot?

  • Cinesnark Sarah Marrs (@Cinesnark) reported

    @kimsdharma @hbomax Disney+ is the WORST because they actively CHOOSE not to be backwards compatible with older smart TVs. This is the first issue I've had with HBOMax and it was repairable.

  • adorable0000 Michelle Pabon (@adorable0000) reported

    Wondering why I’m paying for @hbomax when all it does is crash throughout the course of a movie…. 💭 Very frustrating

  • TheLeftTea Colleen #FreePalestine ☘️ (@TheLeftTea) reported

    @ChrisCa25768410 @hbomax @Samsung No problem. Hope you find a way to watch, HBO is such a great streaming service would be a shame if this turns ppl off.

  • Cinesnark Sarah Marrs (@Cinesnark) reported

    So HBO Max is forcing an app update on Samsung TVs that...doesn't work with Samsung TVs. Hey guess what, in a battle between my TV and a streaming app, the TV is going to win. Bye bye @hbomax

  • 702crc CHRISTO (@702crc) reported

    @hbomax FIX UR ******* GARBAGE APP

  • Cinesnark Sarah Marrs (@Cinesnark) reported

    @Hoyaheel22 @hbomax Hopefully they'll fix it, but right now it's telling me there isn't enough memory and this TV is BARELY 2 years old. I'm not buying a new TV for ONE app.

  • SprMrktSlsh SuperMarketSlash (@SprMrktSlsh) reported

    @hbomax your app sucks!!! says i need to update but i can't click on the download button. I always have problems with this ****.

  • chh__bop lil snack (@chh__bop) reported

    @hbomax trying to watch the gossip girl reboot (duh) and the hbo max app isn’t working, keeps kicking us off even after I reinstalled 😖 is anyone else having this issue?

  • nujazzradio 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐡☆ (@nujazzradio) reported

    @hbomax gossip girl needs subtitles u need to fix that

  • Hailey_Darling Hailey ⚡️ (@Hailey_Darling) reported

    Dude @hbomax fix your stupid Playstation app please. I’m so done with “Oops! Something went wrong” 🙄🙄🙄

  • ChrisCa25768410 Chris Castro (@ChrisCa25768410) reported

    @TheLeftTea @hbomax @Samsung Especially since it's one of the pricier streaming options . I actually love the app and prefer it over netflix . I think worst case scenario I have to delete and install the app I want to use that moment which will be annoying after a while. Thanks for helping me vent lol.

  • gavinguidry Gavin Guidry (gid-dree) (@gavinguidry) reported

    Had to go through more than one rep to get it fixed, but I got it fixed. I really hope @hbomax takes steps to add login notifications and 2-step verification options.
