Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • zorrofx Victor Melton (@zorrofx) reported

    Your app may have crashed for #MareOfEasttown last night but it still doesn’t work for anything this morning either. Fix it! @hbomax #HboMaxAppSucks

  • enginutkan Andy Engin Utkan (@enginutkan) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yes. When you have a problem tweet about it. Your app says we have an internet connection issue. We don’t want to guess if this is local or general. Thanks.

  • ispraveendead praveen. (@ispraveendead) reported

    Why is the @hbomax app still so awful one year later?

  • knitvspurl ✡️ MG ✡️ #LetsGetToWork #BidenAgenda (@knitvspurl) reported

    I like @hbomax but OMG, the April update of the Android app for my Fire tablet SUCKS. Doesn't auto-play the next episode, keeps erroring out, all sorts of problems. Ugh.

  • RaquelStecher Raquel Stecher (@RaquelStecher) reported

    @jaxbra @hbomax It’s a terrible app. I like the content on there but to get anything going takes me several attempts 😬

  • karaoklee Karaoklee (@karaoklee) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Still broken on Roku. Rebooted and logout/login multiple times.

  • elpadredebolsas PO (@elpadredebolsas) reported

    @hbomax seriously are you guys ever going to fix the language thing? I can’t watch Gomorrah with the terrible English dub. #hbomax #Gomorrah

  • BOBBYBO1990 BOBBY B (@BOBBYBO1990) reported

    @hbomax your app is the biggest piece if crap ever created. I spend a half hour troubleshooting every time I want to watch a show. Please fix it or fire your entire staff.

  • MCampbellBooks Michele Campbell (@MCampbellBooks) reported

    Still haven’t seen #MareOfEastown but the @hbomax crash wasn’t all bad. It’s nice to think we can all still watch the same show at the same time like back in the day!

  • carrieluvsnails CARRIE STATUM (@carrieluvsnails) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I finally gave up and went to bed. I have more problems with hbomax than all of my other apps combined. Even when working it loads so slow. Y'all really need better tech support.

  • tonypdawg Dr. Vinnie Boombatz (@tonypdawg) reported

    @BarstoolBigCat @hbomax @hbomax is absolutely the worst app on my phone or tablet. Total garbage.

  • killjoye2008 Counting the days til live music is bk in Brooklyn (@killjoye2008) reported

    @page88 So was I not the only one having issues with @hbomax last night?

  • slavkobogdanov Slavko Bogdanov (@slavkobogdanov) reported

    @abigailStev @hbomax Yes, I kept having to unplug the TV to get it to work again. But then I discovered by accident that on our Samsung TV if you hold the back button it resets the app so when you reopen it the problem goes away for a while.

    @CallMeStackie @hulu @hbomax Login in hbo max with same credentials

  • CraigS_22 CraigS (@CraigS_22) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It wasn't only Mare watchers having issues I was trying to watch season 2 of Titans last night and kept getting that error message. Be better #HBOMax

  • tiffanyrocks Tiffany Howard (@tiffanyrocks) reported from Daytona Beach, Florida

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah but it took 35 minutes, why do I pay for a service to stream at a specific time as dictated by you since the season isn’t released in advance only for it to not work??? You should be expecting an influx of traffic at that time, for it to go down is unacceptable!

  • broncokeeper Holmes (@broncokeeper) reported

    @ShaneIsTheWorst @hbomax I always have issues w/them. Every show we watch freezes for 2-5 seconds at the beginning of the episode/movie.

  • amykhris AKG🦜 (@amykhris) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Every time I restore purchase it says I don’t have HBO. The app was on my tv previously and worked fine. I don’t even know why it’s not there anymore. It’s ridiculous I pay for HBO FOR YEARS and the channel isn’t in my guide and app doesn’t work

  • JoeLac13 Joe Lacitignola (@JoeLac13) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’d hope they resolved the issue 8 hours later

  • imbackbackback Imbackbitches (@imbackbackback) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxCaribbean we don’t have fast internet like the Americans, can we at-least have like a Netflix buffering system where the quality changes with your internet speed. The buffering with hbo max is annoying

  • catballouboo Christine (@catballouboo) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Nope. Still not working on Roku for me.

  • TracyGallo Tracy Darney Gallo (@TracyGallo) reported

    @bepryor @hbomax is really the #worst streaming app out there. So many details that don’t work correctly.

  • TraeGrise Trae Grise (@TraeGrise) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp your Roku app is HORRIBLE! Have to sign back in every day but first have to sign out, despite being told I’m signed out. My TV provider is @ bottom with no scroll. Sign out/in is clumsy. Can u actually use ur app like we r expected & so how bad it is & fix it! #Fail

  • nickcjacobs Nick Jacobs (@nickcjacobs) reported

    @JoeSudbay @hbomax Comforting to know I was not the only one with the same issue.

  • begolop begonia hoponoponing (@begolop) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp No you didnt, I’m trying to watch different shows this morning and I can’t because of the same buffering problem. Very frustrating.

  • the_rbf The_🅁🄱🄵 (@the_rbf) reported

    @boothrebecca @sasshole @hbomax I finally got it to work 45 minutes later but I had finished a 24 Sunday morning and I was hosed by then.

  • GoddamnZollman TheZollmanStrikesAgain- Restoring the Snyderverse (@GoddamnZollman) reported from Mendota Heights, Minnesota

    @HBOMaxHelp The worst streamer #RestoreTheSndyerVerse

  • GuyFearTheRVA capitalismiscreepy (@GuyFearTheRVA) reported

    @hbomax really built an entire new brand to put out the crap they have put out so far? When was the last good HBO series? This weekend I saw one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen as well as that steaming pile of **** Mare... did not care enough to finish the last episode

  • nanplou Nan Loucks (@nanplou) reported

    @hbomax What is up with the error message I have been receiving for the past few days when I try to view the Friends Reunion? Not doin' very well!

  • femaIehysteria let me put my bagel down (@femaIehysteria) reported

    @traingers @hbomax It was out on my end from 10pm to 10:30pm est yesterday idk if there were any other issues
