    @_sammiep @hbomax It’s not working for me as well I guess the traffic is crazy right now

  • ChapmanDan78 Dan Chapman (@ChapmanDan78) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Like I said, your content is good but the app is truly awful when you peel back the pretty. Pretty much every week it slows down or stops working with no meaningful feedback. Reboot device and log out/in often solves it but golly it's arduous and leaves a bad taste.

  • lolaLOSANGEL Lola (@lolaLOSANGEL) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp any update on Gomorrah episode 7 closed caption issue?

  • urstadt65 Urstadt65 (@urstadt65) reported

    @hbomax Your app sucks on TVs. It stops, prompting resets. It freezes, forcing the TV to be unplugged. It skips and stutters on some scenes. It gets stuck on loading screens. Fix your junk.

  • i_am_psk Santhosh Kumar (@i_am_psk) reported

    @Oliver78Jacob @hbomax HBO doesn't make or handle HBOMax, WarnerMedia does. So, it's even worse and it goes like "For a company with net worth upwards of $100 Billion, HBOMax has a terrible UI backed by their own sub-par servers."

  • spengali74 Jesse Buller (@spengali74) reported from Hutchinson, Kansas

    @HBOMaxHelp I am getting " can't play title" error message. I watch on xbox series x

  • JustJML JML (@JustJML) reported

    Hey @hbomax why is your closed captioning not working on my Samsung 6 series TV? Recent shows I've tried with no luck: Adventure Time At Home with Amy Sedaris Happy Endings

  • Houseknechtm Michael Houseknecht (@Houseknechtm) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax The app is not working on Sony Bravia TV! It keeps telling me to restart the app. I've force closed, cleared cache, even uninstalled. Nothing has worked since the May 26thish update. >:L

  • mprimo30 Mike Primo (@mprimo30) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp WHEN will the subtitle issue S4 E7-12 of Gomorrah be fixed? It has been 13 days since release and still no fix or timeline. I’d like a refund

  • GarrettMImeson Garrett M. Imeson (@GarrettMImeson) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have done a full system refresh on the @Xfinity device and still getting the same error message. It only seems to happen on Friends and the reunion. Very strange. Not sure where the issue is.

  • MattIvy2 Matt Ivy (@MattIvy2) reported

  • Theejoshhalll 🌞🌹”that’s on me right there”😭 (@Theejoshhalll) reported

  • ChoasRising ChoasRising (Ozzrin) (@ChoasRising) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp for as much as you charge, your app is ****. Freezes all the time, loading errors, crashing, shows saying they can't be accessed... Your service is a scam, won't be renewing sub with you ever again. #HBOMax

  • EmotionalReader 🇯🇲The Emotional Reader (@EmotionalReader) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp hi I am still having issues with viewing Mare of Easttown. It’s the only think not playing properly on the HBO Max app via AppleTV device. Other titles on HBOMax will play without issues, not Mare of Easttown however. How can this be fixed?

  • _sammiep Samantha (@_sammiep) reported

    @Jewd_Law @hbomax They only place I could get the rewind to work was on my desktop but only if I didn't cast it to stream it. I googled this and a lot of people are complaining about this so they are aware and haven't done anything to fix it. This is insane. What a hot mess!

  • darksasquatch18 Darksasquatch18 (@darksasquatch18) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hi thankyou yes I have restarted the ps4 and make sure the ps4 is up to date and the app as well but still the issue happens. When it happens is when I'm watching any movie/tvshow like 30 min in the error shows up and sometimes when I pause and press play the same error shows up
