    @hbomax bout time you fix your ****..

  • shareastronomy Ken Hudson (@shareastronomy) reported

    I don't understand why businesses don't want customers. For example why doesn't the @hbomax app work on @Roku devices. It just crashes over and over. Ridiculous really. What's up @hbomax? Two more episodes of #Hacks and then I'm done.

  • 1coldnightinoct 今夜あなた自身の自己を救う (@1coldnightinoct) reported

    @hbomax you really need to fix your fast-forward/rewind on the app because it’s a god damn disaster

  • T_Bates123 ⚡️T. Bates⚡️ (@T_Bates123) reported

    @hbomax yo I don’t know what kind of amateur software/app developers y’all have but for the amount of money paid every month just for your app to crash and glitch off something as little as a pause or skip, is ridiculous. And you guys get a lot of complaints, just fix it.

  • Aly_Retana Alyssa (@Aly_Retana) reported

    Hey @hbomax I've been trying to watch Rush Hour 2 for a couple days now but there's a delay in the streaming on all my devices can you guys fix that please!

  • GinjaBrad GinjaBrad (@GinjaBrad) reported

    @WorkWombatman Thanks for supporting Dolby vision. I would like you to reach out to @HBOMaxHelp it's been 6 months since there app worked in HDR. Netflix, Disney plus work fine in HDR why can't we get this fixed? If gotta watch dune in standard definition I'm gonna be pissed.

  • EBGuitarMan EB (@EBGuitarMan) reported

    Love @hbomax content, but the app is literally the worst performing app out there for such a monster company. I repeat the @hbomax app is really bad! That said, it’s a shame they never made another season of #Vinyl #RichieFinestra 🙌🏼

  • Vash2123 Vash (@Vash2123) reported

    @hbomax I hope they do something about the body problem. Glad to see this on here then the R.T. That is trash. 😑

  • aimeecornell Aimee Cornell (@aimeecornell) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp having trouble turning off audio descriptions on roku TV. Can you help?

  • _judyrobbins Judy Robbins (@_judyrobbins) reported

    @thatssoCharless @hbomax Hulu needs help too 😩 Idk what the hell is wrong with all of them they have all our money

  • nickrosenburg Nick Rosenburg (@nickrosenburg) reported

    @hbomax app absolutely sucks. Always an issue

  • timcwebb Tim Webb on bass 🎶 (@timcwebb) reported

    Dear @HBOMaxHelp, your new "upgraded" app is way too big-- I don't understand how you can have a 50+ MB app when most popular apps are around 2MB or less. It's so big it won't fit on my Smart TV & I know others are having the same issue. Please fix this!

  • zzzmooch Sergeant Thick (@zzzmooch) reported

    @hbomax can you fix your app already. There's a problem with the audio when it's cast from a phone.

  • T_Bates123 ⚡️T. Bates⚡️ (@T_Bates123) reported

  • The20thLettr T (@The20thLettr) reported from Bronx, New York

    @hbomax has been buggy, glitchy and crashes like crazy lately. Fix it.

  • HMMADNESS Brandon Roy (@HMMADNESS) reported

    @luchalibrarian @hbomax I has some issues at the start but figured they had it worked out. Now I have one or two but no more then other streaming services. Have you tried uninstalling and downloading again?

  • EBGuitarMan EB (@EBGuitarMan) reported

    @Sungsam12 @hbomax I have it on PS4 and iPhone. On the iPhone it’s not as glitchy, but on PS4 at home on the big screen is just awful. It’s clunky, not responsive & the navigation is crap! You have to literally back way out of the menu to get to the main page of a series to select different eps.

  • Sungsam12 🇺🇸🇵🇷El Richie Richardson🇵🇷🇺🇸 (@Sungsam12) reported

    @EBGuitarMan @hbomax I use the TV app and the android its had no problems yet. Notice I said yet.

  • Ken15485560 Silenced (@Ken15485560) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Toshiba 32LF221U21 32-inch Smart HD 720p TV - Fire TV, Released 2020. FF often just sits and goes nowhere. Pushing RW will rewind a few seconds and stall. Hitting FF again while stalled, at times will work or will appear to do so, then hit play and you're back where I started.

  • NaviLana Lana Stepan (@NaviLana) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp cannot get your app to work on my PS4 or PS5 after an update today. Version 50.40 Uninstalled and reinstalled on both consoles no change, help please

  • CabeyCabe Cabe (@CabeyCabe) reported

    Hey @hbomax how do you have one of the most expensive services and objectively the worst app of any streaming service? Completely broken on PS5 and random shows just don't work on Chromecast.

  • allDAEeveryday_ daeee. (@allDAEeveryday_) reported

    why is y’all’s app so terrible @hbomax

  • yeah_its_dave Dave… (@yeah_its_dave) reported from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

    @HBOMaxHelp your content that says it has @Dolby Vision is NOT playing with any Dolby Vision on @Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K...but other services/apps are playing Dolby Vision just fine. Do you have a fix for that on the way?!

  • Mallen1811 Mallen 181 (@Mallen1811) reported

    @Rohefner_901 @hbomax They’re between 20 minutes and a half an hour each! Does that help?

  • CrackCase007 CrackCase007 (@CrackCase007) reported

    @Sereno121 @HBOMaxHelp Text for assistance and other related issues

  • JoshForte JoshForte (@JoshForte) reported

    @hbomax When I try and select (play) a show on this app on my @Roku, it just refreshes the screen. It does not start playing the select title. What should I do? I’ve already called support and they just tell me to restart every time. But the problem keeps resurfacing.

  • Sereno121 Gabriel Sereno Perez (@Sereno121) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp my account was hacked! Please help!

  • charles_kent ckf (@charles_kent) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp my email was changed via a scam - how do I fix this?

  • MissAbbyNormal It's Gritney, *****! (@MissAbbyNormal) reported

    @fboyisland @hbomax @NikkiGlaser Wow, looks ******* awful. We get this garbage instead of another season of Warrior?

  • cmedberg Caitlin Edberg (@cmedberg) reported

    Omg @hbomax all of your apps are garbage. We pay enough for this service, fix your broken ****.
