-
katie Henderson (@katiehe201587) reported@hbomaxhelp Been in an email loop with support doing the same troubleshooting steps repeatedly. Issue: Friends degrades in picture quality after ~15-20 min, every time, only that show. App updated, reinstalled, TV restarted — multiple times. Need actual escalation.

Alfred (@ADlDAS5150) reported@hbomax why is audio description on on the new season of primal why doesn’t it let us turn off? Can you please fix this f’n thing?
-
blah blah blah ok nice 👍 (@Markfel49566643) reported@sky @hbomax sky login process please
-
Grabbasplode (@Grabbasplode) reported@hbomax Terrible slogan. It's called the Green Lantern Corp for a reason. You can't have a corp of one. Also doesn't work if your just talking about Earths sector as each one has two, nor is there a cap on Lanterns per species.
-
Cledus Snow (@CledusSnow89) reported@Perryspaced @footballontnt @hbomax Agreed - looks like awful.
-
Onur Ç. (@BlackmaxOnur) reported@wbd @HBO @hbomax Congratulations! Thanks to you, the entire Harry Potter franchise has become a laughingstock. Every day there are mocking edits, and you don't care about these complaints at all! You're awful, absolutely awful!
-
Bonnie (@JohnnyBoyp7g5) reported@JamesGunn @hbomax Awful color and it’s called a corps for a reason
-
Shannon Stringer (@PigzFly_) reported@hbomax you people have got to fix the issue of the awful loop of doom while trying to sign in with Hulu. It’s happened to me more than once and I finally gave up. Nothing should be this difficult
-
Leah/Blood (@BloodyP9075) reportedAre all live sport streams on @hbomax terrible? I was excited to watch this @penguins game there being out of market, but the stream is so bad I couldn’t.
-
Sterek Gaming (@SterekGaming) reportedEven HBO Max Brazil is leaving out Mohan already and the season not even done yet. WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM @HBO @hbomax
-
Brian Roach (@bwroach) reportedDoes anybody else's @hbomax app shut off after 2 episodes of a program? For the past 3 days, everytime after 2 episodes of a show HBOMax says "error no internet connection" even though I still have a high internet connection. What's wrong with the @hbomax app on @xbox?
-
Mr. Gray (@GaryLGray) reported@analydiamonaco @hbomax @LG0_Hendrixxx So sorry to leave something so ominous under your work! Lol I'm currently developing a series and we are getting a pitch deck together. Was trying to explain to my partner what these specific series Bible type documents look like, and yours is really good! Hence the tag
-
Milkias Samuel (@Milkias2025) reported@KordanzP @hbomax No, Im fully aware that Guy Gardner exists in the DCU, the problem is that this slogan insinuates that only one person can wear the ring, even though Guy Gardner exists simultaneously as a GL in the DCU which contradicts that slogan. There should be a ring for each GL member
-
sleep8tolkien (@sleep8tolkien) reported@HouseofDragon @hbomax Won't be watching. If it ain't Martins work then no deal
-
miramelcrave (@gertstarlight) reportedbrilliant langdon ep however samira got one line .... work on that @hbomax
-
mark mcneilly (@mcneilly_mark) reported@hbomax I was hoping that the video quality of your sport stream on TNT would improve now you are in charge. Why is the image quality so bad compared to Sky and Amazon Prime? I am paying a lot for HBOmax with TNT sport and the image quality on TNT is rubbish compared to others
-
ROC (@RoCraken) reported@hbomax literally worst interface ever. What am I paying for?
-
Rowdy Ralph (@IamRowdyRalph) reported@hbomax is terrible for watching basketball. The stream sucks.
-
maligator (@kohoccm) reported@LGUS @hbomax Bought an LG stove Dec 2025 — broke within a week. 5 service visits, none fixed it. 4‑hour windows cost me work/pay. Escalations ignored, no callback. LG service is terrible — do your research before buying.
-
Cannon (@23automatic1) reported@MartCruz_19 @GameOfThrones @hbomax You do realize Jace(Rhaenyra's son) is betrothed to Baela(Daemon's daughter) and they are next in line to rule as King and Queen. So he is right by saying 'our children' so what's the problem?
-
OLDSCHOOL 2.0 (@OldSchool2pt0) reported@hbomaxhelp @JdotChilds The sound during the commercials is just awful. Streaming HBO Max March Madness games. Please change the commercial, it has a very annoying sound.
-
Chris Atkinson (@Stoph76) reported@tntsports Just getting a 404 no page error. I'd heard that you could access tnt through @hbomax without subscription, to watch the #cycling but it just says you don't subscribe so was just checking if you needed to or not. Thanks
-
valerie ⭑.ᐟ (@readinversee) reported@hbomax @riafwnn thats the worst seating chart in history my guy
-
Breaker (@TwiztidMetal31) reported@JamesGunn @hbomax Looks terrible. As per usual hard pass.
-
james dagostino (@dags9256) reported@UConnMBB @MikeMutnansky @hbomax was frozen for me. Worst coverage ever, stick to ******* movies and tv
-
TheGreatBabu (@TheGr8Babu) reportedHey @hbomax y’all need to fix your app! At the very least, add a restart option to episodic shows. Spoilers and having to hit rewind is just bad UX!
-
Raphael De La Soul (@Jonnz5Jonn) reported@Mcil9518 @JamesGunn @hbomax Then debate why I’m wrong? Ya’ll get on here to just complain, not actually debate. I’m not trying to disrespect you, just explaining my position. A green lantern story deals with primarily that lantern and their issues/concern. A corps story typically involves a group of them.

CoaCoalt (@Coalt81) reported@hbomaxhelp Hi, I am writing to report a persistent issue with the Max app on my Apple TV 4K. Despite having a Premium subscription, my video quality remains stuck at 720p, while I should be getting 4K UHD or 1080p.
-
Gary Bibby (@garybibby) reported@NOWTV your trailer about @hbomax coming together has a spoiler from Heated Rivalry in it, please fix that.
-
Synchronicity (@74Synchronicity) reportedDear @hbomax and @NOWTV - why can't I download The Pitt onto my iPad to watch on a flight tomorrow? Is it a glitch with the new platform on Now TV, is it a problem with this series or is this simply unavailable for download for Now TV Subscribers?
