    @hbomax Hi the app stalls out all the time. Try to fix this

  • samuelwyatt samuel wyatt haines (@samuelwyatt) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Why do y’all just keep sharing the same troubleshooting when thousands of people are telling you it doesn’t work and the app simply is not good? Netflix, YouTube, and Prime run beautifully. HBOMax is currently trash.

  • jita1 Brian Donald (@jita1) reported

    @hbomax when are you going to fix your app for FireTV? Major issues with rewinding/fast forwarding. Do you test your apps before releasing them? Unacceptable.

  • DonaldoTrumpsky Donald Trump (@DonaldoTrumpsky) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @TommyJo53276885 Force quit application, restarted Apple TV, and Deleted and reinstalled application still not working. Newest Apple TV and latest software.

  • Suplyndmnd Frank Grimes (@Suplyndmnd) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp huge outage again. How can you guys be so bad at this?

  • Tringels_ Tristin (@Tringels_) reported

    @hbomax your smart TV app is terrible. It always crashes!!! I can never watch anything without issue

  • samuelwyatt samuel wyatt haines (@samuelwyatt) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @mtdiabla @ruff_bluffs It does this and more on the Firestick all the time. Since it’s very first release. These aren’t isolated errors, the entire app needs to be revamped.

  • CoxswainJack jack mf coxswain (@CoxswainJack) reported

    @hbomax why is volume so low on iphone? it’s absolutely awful. and it’s not just me. there is no fix.

  • the_lost_halo Curtis Low (@the_lost_halo) reported

    I’m so sick and tired of this ****** @hbomax service. HOW IS THERE AN OUTAGE LIKE EVERYDAY NOW?

  • serenitytoyz serenity 🛑 NO UNITY W/O ACCOUNTABILITY 🛑 (@serenitytoyz) reported

    hbomax is putting out crap (50 years of clint eastwood? sure that's reading the room) and their code is the worst (please do saturation testing) If they cancel John Oliver, poof, they are GONE - no more of my $$ ahem @hbomax

  • LivLafLuvDrank 𝓁𝒾𝓋𝓁𝒶𝒻𝓁𝓊𝓋𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓃𝓀 🖤🍸ESH (@LivLafLuvDrank) reported

    @MissMandyHale @hbomax No watching it on my phone at work as we speak

  • the_lost_halo Curtis Low (@the_lost_halo) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Sure. Thanks for all the help. The money I spend a month ensures a spotty app.

  • MorenaS77225022 Morena Smith (@MorenaS77225022) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp how long is it going to take to fix this outage……?

  • MajikOnly LS Edge (@MajikOnly) reported

    @hbomax this app messes up everytime I use it now. Every time I get an error message during a show or movie and am forced to turn it off. This needs to be fixed or refunds given.

  • the_lost_halo Curtis Low (@the_lost_halo) reported

    @HBO @hbomax Can’t your ****** app doesn’t work

  • diamond_deedee Dee-Dee Crawford (@diamond_deedee) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m using a fire stick & I was watching NYC Epicenters. The bottom line is your streaming service is just not that great and for as much as you charge you need to upgrade it. I should be able to rewind without your help🙄

  • MarvelWDW1021 Big Chugus Wants KFB to win at Richmond (@MarvelWDW1021) reported

    @hbomax Cancel this trash, it’s badly animated and ugly, and why did 20th Television work with you, hope they never partner up with you again, except when Free Guy and Ron’s Gone Wrong come to HBO Max via HBO

  • Keijo21 Rogue21 (@Keijo21) reported

    @chrisrtineenri1 @CryMachoFilm @hbomax Why is he the only one? You have a problem with his skin color?

  • AmariiDavu DAVÜ (@AmariiDavu) reported

    @alyssafromcali T. RASH. JUICE. Try to rewind to rewatch a good part and now you at the ****** home screen MAD as hell. Make you not even wanna finish your favorite series. @hbomax FIX that trash *** interface.

  • __wpk__ wpk (@__wpk__) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I will attempt again when I get home but this has been an issue since I started using the app in november of last year

  • PercCousins2 Perc Cousins (@PercCousins2) reported

    @hbomax first off your app is awful. Second can we at least get a michael k Williams page or something? He played huge roles in growing your brand

  • JavarusThomas Java✨ (@JavarusThomas) reported

    @hbomax y’all need to fix the app

  • sooftc Soof 🇫🇷 - ZSJL associate producer #FRZSJL (@sooftc) reported
