  • Lazer Liza Shulyayeva💙💛 (@Lazer) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Thanks, but before I go down a debugging rabbit hole would you mind confirming that these issues are not already being tracked? I highly doubt I ran into some obscure bugs. Eg I see the cursor issue was reported on Reddit as far back as 2020 &an HBO account replied to that thread

  • _stephclaire Stephanie🌙 (@_stephclaire) reported from Comstock Northwest, Michigan

    @hbomax my app on the roku tv hasn't been working for 2 days, how do I fix this?!

  • Lazer Liza Shulyayeva💙💛 (@Lazer) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I definitely appreciate you responding to complaints on Twitter, but getting users to go through these typical steps for something that's likely already a known ongoing issue seems unnecessary, which is why I'd love for you to confirm via your bug tracking system first.

  • KarenAMaese Mrs. Teacher (@KarenAMaese) reported

    The Che character on #andjustlikethat @hbomax really is the worst character on TV. Ugh. Really, #SATC??

  • TriemVisual Triem Visual (@TriemVisual) reported

    @hbomax I moved from the US to Ireland. HBO MAX isn't in Ireland, yet. Fair enough, BUT your web page won't let me cancel my subscription... because I'm in Ireland. Help me out here?

  • Joe2U Joseph Wallace (@Joe2U) reported

    So frustrated with @hbomax. Keeps telling me my subscription can't be verified. Every link they give to help leads to another link. Each one as unhelpful as the next. Checked my bill. It's paid. What's up? @HBOMaxHelp

  • ShermEstes Vailala Madness (@ShermEstes) reported

    @SVSalon @hbomax I watched Drive My Car on HBOmax, and had no problem w/ subtitles. Admirable to watch Uncle Vanya first, but I'm not sure it was necessary.

  • DoomVlad DoomVlad (@DoomVlad) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp that doesn't help the issue at all - there is nothing in the help center about this.

  • ShayneEmmert Shayne Emmert (@ShayneEmmert) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp HBOMax "Help". Doing everything you can to live up to that name, eh?

  • ShayneEmmert Shayne Emmert (@ShayneEmmert) reported

    @Justin_Mulford @HBOMaxHelp What did you have to do? Dance a jig? I've had buffer issues since I first subscribed. Multiple computers, multiple browsers, at multiple apartments and multiple internet connections. All with the same problem.

  • tracbirdsall Tracy (@tracbirdsall) reported

    @hbomax fix your Halloween kills description! You're in the wrong timeline!

  • auxiliummecum アレクス (@auxiliummecum) reported

    who do I complain to about captions not working on HBO @hbomax

  • nirgal2002 Erik Carlstrom (@nirgal2002) reported

    @hbomax just an FYI but your recent update for Apple TV 4K has caused the app to crash whenever you try to open it

  • DickSpittle412 Dick_Spittle412 (@DickSpittle412) reported

    @hbomax you really dropped the ball with DMZ. You had a great story and ya threw away. I love the actors and acting but it's really sub par writing and work on your part. Felt I was watching a CW show, a good CW show still not to HBO standards. #DMZonMax

  • dcffo2018 The Patriot (@dcffo2018) reported

    @winningtimehbo @hbomax From the promo, this looks awful. Nothing that I would watch. A root canal would be less painful.

  • Lazer Liza Shulyayeva💙💛 (@Lazer) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Which issue is this supposed to help? It does nothing for the cursor or the needless scroll area, and I'm pretty sure lack of skip keyboard bindings is not a bug, but an unfortunately missing feeture that is very common on media players but which your app just didn't seem to add.

  • DanDrahy Dan Drahy (@DanDrahy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hello, I am having problems with streaming on my Samsung galaxy note 20 ultra 5g Android 12. It does not load any film ir series. Just empty player. It is working on my Sony Androiv TV fine on the same Wifi. Thx gor help!

  • SVSalon SVSalon 🦕 (@SVSalon) reported

    Watched Uncle Vanya first from 2020 (Toby Jones) and then off to watch Drive My Car BUT @Hbomax the captions do NOT WORK on the movie past a certain point. FIX this, please. #DriveMyCar

  • michellened Michellene DeBonis (she/her) (@michellened) reported

    @mtvh09 @hbomax We thought this was entirely overrated (sorry to say)and feel The Worst Person in the World is so much better

  • habitatcontrol Mild Rhetoric (@habitatcontrol) reported

    @hbomax @winningtimehbo We're having some trouble playing that video please try again later

  • skirchy Stephanie Kirchgaessner (@skirchy) reported

    @adamdavidson @MonicaLewinsky @hbomax What I find really disingenuous is that most of the concern about cc seems to be focused, especially in the UK, about people thinking they cannot talk about trans issues. But there's never an acknowledgment of the actual laws and rules being passed against trans people.

  • kip_stiles Kip Stiles (@kip_stiles) reported

    @robertliefeld @hbomax My only issue with PTA's LICORICE PIZZA was that running seemed to be the only mode of travel for the characters. And, having grown up in that era, I don't know anyone who ran as much as these people did. However, upon reflection of other PTA films, running seems to be a theme.

  • anniegowen Annie Gowen (@anniegowen) reported

    @unrealfred @hbomax I’m having the same problem! No subtitles with out without closed captioning @hbomax

  • lifeisterrible saddest girl to ever hold a martini (@lifeisterrible) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp your app is garbage and makes me sad all the time because it doesn’t work

  • gregatronn6 gregatronn⚡ (@gregatronn6) reported

    @WhoIsKayBrown @hbomax Content solid. Design needs work

  • paulraised Paul Raised (@paulraised) reported

    @hbomax FIX THE DAMN OPTICAL AUDIO OUTPUT FOR ******* DOLBY 5.1 GOD DAMNIT

  • flutiefan flutie's girl (@flutiefan) reported

    @seebroox @hbomax it’s unreal how they aren’t even concerned enough about a freaking Best Picture nominee being viewed on their platform to fix it. how in the world do subtitles just stop partway through a movie??!

  • dave0matic Sir Fig Newton 💯🇺🇲 (@dave0matic) reported

    @hbomax It was OK, not great, not horrible but OK. I wish an episode or 2 or 3 would have been stuck in the beginning to help us out with what happened in the world. Odi is my dude!

    @winningtimehbo @hbomax I replaced recalled fire sprinklers around the Western States and once I went to Cordillera, Colorado to do some work. We walked into Jerry Buss’ condo and he had covered every square inch of wall and ceiling in mirrors. Kobe stayed there once . . .
