    @deroiamusic @hbomax If you are using a Fire TV, make a new profile, and watch through that. It will get around the issue until we get out a proper fix.

    @HouseofDragon @hbomax ayy yoo tf man yall keep saying have you restart the program or close it then try opening it again? Like yes and yes to all of them. Like stop saying that and fix the issue instead of asking us to fix it like wtf.

  • QueenDakota5 Dakota Long (@QueenDakota5) reported

    HEY @hbomax why is your app the absolute WORST when it comes to steaming?? We’ve been closed out four times now. Just don’t understand how you’ve been a leader in tv shows but can’t figure out how to have an actual functional app????

  • shelbsmariel Shelby Leisinger (@shelbsmariel) reported

    House of the Dragon keeps making HBO max crash but other programs are playing fine…what gives? @hbomax

  • ericward_7 Eric Ward (@ericward_7) reported

    @casmire15 @hbomax I obviously work in high-volume customer service and have a pretty long leash because you never know what’s going on. But hard to swallow an entire hour of time dedicated to trying to log in to no avail. Hope it’s a good one

  • pnmreddy Arjun Reddy P (@pnmreddy) reported

    @NattyBrarian @HouseofDragon @hbomax Why should I create a new profile, HBO should have given instructions with payment receipt, these are the issues you get, create new profile before 9 pm Sunday to watch House of Dragons. Now half the world watched you are giving now instructions what to do, this is unfair.

  • king_curry3 Captain Hook (@king_curry3) reported

    Fix up @hbomax

  • RogueMonkey5 Rogue Monkey (@RogueMonkey5) reported

    @AmazonHelp Tried the restart first thing. No joy. Doesn't appear to be a FireTV issue. Will probably just watch @PrimeVideo and wait until Mondays if I want to watch this show until @hbomax gets their act together.

  • TGville2285 Tanisha Granville (@TGville2285) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Still not working on firestick. We've Uninstalled, reinstall, and restarted it and it still crashes after the intro
