    @hbomax MANNN THE APP HAVE SOME MOVIES IN SPANISH AND DESCRIPTIONS TALKING THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE DO I NEED TO MAKE A NEW PROFILE TO FIX THIS TRIED EVERYTHING

  • TartanTaterTot ScotOfTheSouth (@TartanTaterTot) reported

    .@hbomax has got to be the worst streaming platform in existence. Not the content, the actual app itself. The layout, the constant delayed response, the freezing/crashing. Hopeless.

  • krashmaxxx krashmax (@krashmaxxx) reported

    @hbomax fix yall ******* app

  • alissa914g Lauren (Styx and Helloween albums this week) McCoy (@alissa914g) reported

    Wow, @HBOMax.... Normally the video quality on shows is good, but someone really needs to reencode The Larry Sanders Show on your platform. It's pretty bad. Lots of dropped frames. When Mill Creek Entertainment's DVDs look better than your encoding, you know it's bad. :)

  • kita_2 Waukita Wright (@kita_2) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’ve been trying to stream In The Heights all day and it will not stream. I’ve been able to stream other movies today but not this particular one. It streams fine on my phone but I want to watch it via TV. Please help

  • sar_i_am duchess ice (@sar_i_am) reported

    @hbomax we need to talk about how awful your subtitles are, please.

  • BdgeScott Scott_BDGE (@BdgeScott) reported

    amazing that @hbomax isn’t owned by Comcast because their app is unusable FF button is more of a guess where you’ll end up surprise

  • peaceluvmusic92 lek (@peaceluvmusic92) reported

    My god @hbomax FIX YOUR APP

  • philatravelgirl Suzanne ✈️ (@philatravelgirl) reported

    @Ali610 @HBOMaxHelp @XfinitySupport I thought it was just me! This is crazy - i put in code four times, reset xfinity box then got in only to loop to home screen as play doesn’t work! I pick any show hit play and go back to home screen.

  • OfficialFatalZ Fatal Z (@OfficialFatalZ) reported

    getting real tired of HBO Max on PS5 keeps having errors @hbomax you idiots gonna fix **** or? waste of $15 a month wth

  • katwalton KayDub (@katwalton) reported

    A heads up. Our @HBOMax account was hacked and login was changed. HBO CS is useless. I cancelled the account and re-upped through another provider. If you are 1 of the lucky few who hasn't been hacked, go in and change your password NOW. 1/2

  • angem25 Ange (@angem25) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @dasilvalining It would be nice if you just fixed the app overall or told us what to do because seems all Roku users are having this issue. I just wanted to download the app on my Roku and the screen won’t even load when I try to get into the app. Don’t even have an account yet

  • froggytheprince Jav Gutierrez (@froggytheprince) reported

    @hbomax your app keeps freezing and it's very annoying. Can you please fix it

  • reggie_wiz Reggie Wiz (@reggie_wiz) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp for some reason you're app keeps crashing on my Ps4 like every day and there are two of same apps on there for some reason but I think A good thorough search through to the app update will probably fix it

  • GandolfiniDaGry Gandolfini The Grey (@GandolfiniDaGry) reported

    @hbomax and @VIZIOsupport kiss and make up plz, so I can put the stupid app on the stupid tv, so I don’t have to ******* cast shows from my phone, as I’m very bad at keeping my phone charged, and I don’t have a charger by my couch, so this is a BIG issue for me.

  • struggs_ heidee. (@struggs_) reported

    I swear @hbomax is the literal WORST streaming app. Constantly freezing, kicking me out, playing sound without video, nearly impossible to rewind without it taking forever to load, etc. So glad I leach on someone else’s account and don’t actually pay for this garbage.

  • Bizsnes BizSnes (@Bizsnes) reported

    Watching Harry Potter on @hbomax and it keeps going in and out of bootleg quality. Streaming media sucks

  • JeFeWaVeZ_LWA ČārpéDîēm_Łwā🤙🏾🤘🏾🦅 (@JeFeWaVeZ_LWA) reported

    @hbomax can you please fix the fast-forward/rewind & interface bug on the PS4?!?!

  • Parkerevermore parker (@Parkerevermore) reported

    @SuperHarleyQ @HBOMaxHelp i think that's gonna take them some time. is it even worth constant frustration? i've decided to drop this service until they fix it.

  • EricOzanich Eric Oooooooozanic (@EricOzanich) reported from Lansing, Michigan

    Hey @XfinitySupport what gives with @hbomax not working for like three straight days? I can log in, browse and select a title but when I hit play it just goes back to the main menu. #help

  • HannumWells Hunter Hannum-Wells (@HannumWells) reported

    @hbomax yo fix your PlayStation version of your app it constantly crashes “oops something went wrong”.

  • DimeStoreRiot Chad Eagleton (@DimeStoreRiot) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp me again, your app still won’t work on the PS4. Unlike yesterday, it actually starts to load before glitching and then immediately shutting off.

  • DebDebya DebDebya (@DebDebya) reported

    @hbomax What's up, HBOMAX? My App is not working just like it wasn't working before the finale of Mare of Easttown. I'm paid up! Please work on it.🤞

  • a_chiuling Annika Lee 李俏玲 (@a_chiuling) reported

    @joyhuilin @hbomax @hulu I guess sometime between Wonder Woman 84 and now, they changed the interface so you just have to use your Hulu login on the HBO Max site for the films released simultaneously in theaters and HBO Max. But there wasn’t, like, an information pop up or anything on Hulu :/

  • CAshby10 Courtney Ashby (@CAshby10) reported

    @hbomax @PS5 please fix your app. It’s almost unusable with the constant “oops something went wrong” error message popping up

  • DuglarGamer Duglar (@DuglarGamer) reported

    Anyone else having issues with @hbomax ??? It won’t load on any of my devices, including phone, PS4, SmartTv, or Xbox

  • greg_meyers keleko Meyers (@greg_meyers) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have Samsung (5 Series) smart TV, and I subscribed about two days ago. Since then, I have been having a terrible time watching movies and shows. It keeps buffering and slightly glitches at times. Why is this happening and how long would this be an issue?
