    Hey @hbomax can you fix whatever this bug is that changes the language of what you’re watching in the middle of it? This is crazy

  • twinderella_ 🇺🇦 GET VACCINATED. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 (@twinderella_) reported

    Turned on Old by M Night Shyamalan & the color is so muted & bad I can’t even watch. It’s seriously lacking contrast & everything looks weirdly beige. Idk if it’s the movie or @hbomax that’s the problem, but I couldn’t get through 10 min because it bothered my eyes so much. 😫

  • hey_its_baloo U R LOVED! U R IMPORTANT🐻🌈✌🏽🤟🏽🖖🏽 (@hey_its_baloo) reported

    Seriously no clue wtf is up with my @hbomax app. It’s the only streaming app that crash’s and gives the error message it’s my internet.

  • HartehankUnion Hartrhank Unions (@HartehankUnion) reported

    @UnionizeTheBig Thank you. We are currently paid less than 15 dollar an hour and we have 30 minutes unpaid lunch break. We get penalized if we stay on the calls for too long even if we are supposed to help our customers. We currently take calls from alot of companies, but a big one is @hbomax

    @OrangeC19224731 @hbomax @wbd See, I'm with you on that. They made this mess, now they have to fix it.

  • neums FedEx Pope (@neums) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp This happened after your update 3 weeks ago. Everything is up to date. Your app just sucks. If you have on-air talent calling it out, it’s not user error. It’s your problem.

  • littlebeelife bonnie🥀 (@littlebeelife) reported

    it's #BarryHBO time only when @hbomax decides to work -_-

  • ShyamToprani Shyam Toprani (@ShyamToprani) reported

    @hbomax why do your app and downloaded videos never work on my iPad when in Airplane Mode … or on a plane but not in Airplane Mode … or any combination while on a plane

  • PEPthePig69 peppa pig (@PEPthePig69) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp, fix this!

  • Its_Me_Rashad RASHAD 🦇 (@Its_Me_Rashad) reported

    The @hbomax app on PS5 has to be one of the worst apps, it’s functionality is TERRIBLE, constant app blackouts, stalled communication, how do they have so much money and yet can make a decent app lol

  • CipherKnot 🌻🗽CentralScrutinizer ☠️ (@CipherKnot) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah, sure thing! You call "it a feature, though I thick I'd call it basic usability 101." Heck, even Netflix does this, and they're a mess. I guess they've got some bigger issues to deal with for the moment Seems like @HBOMax is still the king of quality content, as a whole.

  • robert493575 Lucas🐻🐾🐾 (@robert493575) reported

  • hey_its_baloo U R LOVED! U R IMPORTANT🐻🌈✌🏽🤟🏽🖖🏽 (@hey_its_baloo) reported

    @robert493575 @hbomax I’ve never had an issue with Hulu. It does appear that there was an update needed. I need to check my Apple TV settings to see why auto updates are happening

  • emmetrio andrew (@emmetrio) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp it will play just a little bit of a show and then keeps giving an error message all the while still playing the audio as if the screen hasn’t gone black. It’s been doing this for two days and I can’t watch anything on your app. It’s annoying.

  • EPJordhamo Emily Jordhamo (@EPJordhamo) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Your app is garbage across all platforms. You know this. Fix it. Also, go away.

  • emmetrio andrew (@emmetrio) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’ve deleted your app, signed out, signed back in, restarted my Apple TV, disconnected and reconnected my internet and the app still gives me an error message saying something is wrong with my internet even though it’s the only app that has issues.

  • zachvat Bill Lamb (@zachvat) reported

    Just PR claptrap and clickbait, now that it’s streaming again. #TheMatrixResurrections isn’t good. It’s borderline terrible. “You need to watch the most subversive sci-fi sequel on @HBOMax ASAP” #movies No. You do not. No, no link.

    @OFMDCrew @hbomax @wbd Izzy would be the worst roommate. Bossy and judgey #FancyAFineFabric
