    @RaquelStecher @hbomax Watching tonight but their app is so wonky on Apple TV. Shuts down or runs into errors all the time.

  • ObiJuanKanobee Juan Shez (@ObiJuanKanobee) reported

    @ATT @hbomax How are we supposed to watch anything with your power outage still not fixed for about 48 hours now and counting

  • XLBOSTON XLTHEBEAST (@XLBOSTON) reported

    @hbomax I love your programming but your app is constantly freezing and slow to select movies. Yes I have unplugged my router (5 xs) please help

  • Michelle_523 Michelle (@Michelle_523) reported

    My first complaint about the #FriendsReunion is that the captions are way ahead of the audio. Like at least a full minute. I'm less than 3 minutes in and I turned them off because it's so annoying. Must be a huge bummer for anyone who truly needs the captions. @hbomax fix it pls

  • kuntizzy ليون (@kuntizzy) reported

    @hbomax i’m literally begging yall to fix this app omfgggggg

  • AnnHacke Ann Hacke 🕷 (@AnnHacke) reported

    @HBO @hbomax Brilliant series. Please help me ....I am hoping that Ryan is treated very leniently. I know it's fiction....but I need him to come through this quickly and to be back in his fictional home soon. Who can assure me that is going to happen?!

  • AliGraysAnatomy Alicia Gray (@AliGraysAnatomy) reported

    Does anyone have an issue with the @Hbomax player on a laptop not playing again if you pause it, then having to start over to the main page from the beginning?

  • enginutkan Andy Engin Utkan (@enginutkan) reported

    @jonathanbaltz Is the problem not fixed. We had this last night @HBOMaxHelp said it is fixed.

  • DJEvillincoln Abe....ventures out.. slowly... with a mask on. 😷 (@DJEvillincoln) reported

    Okay so... In order to sign into the @hbomax app, you have to uninstall it, reinstall it, then uninstall it & wait fifteen minutes before reinstalling it & then it should work fine. You guys did great. #MareOfEasttown

  • not_mariya Mariya (@not_mariya) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp You’d think I’d be able to figure out how to stream mine, since I work in tech for a competitor and all. Errors, errors everywhere, and not a drop of comedy OR true crime hope.

  • oldmanswiftie David, inactive 💛💛 (@oldmanswiftie) reported

    @hbomax is the worst streaming app ever! And yes it’s because of the incidents from the past few days that triggered this tweet. But the app itself has so many bugs and I was thinking this long before I tweeted.

  • samshinhalmoni momo2⁷ (@samshinhalmoni) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Using Firefox. No problems streaming Netflix, Hulu, muni

  • ever_dice Everdinho (DaNewRicoSuave) (@ever_dice) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp your translations aren’t working on the app for any movie or show. Closed captioning is on but for example, Rush Hour 2 has Cantonese to English translations that should be in the movie with or without closed captioning on. Not the only person with this problem

  • brianoverbrawn2 brian (@brianoverbrawn2) reported

    @hbomax hey the closed captioning feature seems to be broken on Roku, it's showing captions ahead of where they are supposed to be

  • agcoop agcoop (@agcoop) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Thanks HBO. Appreciate the response. I assume the playback issues are due to high volume? High class problem! Please do fix the ability to get back to the show page too. Frustrating navigation bug. But, obviously, it hasn't stopped me from watching your great programming:)

  • OGTrekker OGTrekker Rob (@OGTrekker) reported

    @e_bick @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp It's horrible on Apple TV and iPhone. Keeps turning on CC in Spanish. Can't change it. Stuttering video. Have to keep killing and restarting. "Can't play title" errors every 5 minutes. Needs a lot of work. 🙄

  • A_Pretty_ChemE Wholesome Faithful Black Queen 👸🏾 (@A_Pretty_ChemE) reported

    Aye y’all done had some time to roll everything out so now it’s time to fix this app! @hbomax

  • zprilliman ZBP (@zprilliman) reported

    @tprilliman35 @peacockTV @hbomax I've had zero problems with HBOmax

  • OGTrekker OGTrekker Rob (@OGTrekker) reported

    @hbomax The app on Apple TV and iPhone is useless tonight. Keeps turning on CC in Spanish. Can't change it. Stuttering video. Have to keep killing and restarting. "Can't play title" errors every 5 minutes. Needs a lot of work. 🙄

    @HBOMaxHelp Still having problems

  • tototoo2 TotoToo (@tototoo2) reported

    @hbomax Your video player sucks! Why don’t you try syncing your closed captions in Mare of Easttown so that those of us who are deaf can enjoy the show! We are paying for this ****! Fix it!

  • enginutkan Andy Engin Utkan (@enginutkan) reported

    @jonathanbaltz @HBOMaxHelp No the streaming was choppy yesterday. Probably a technical issue.

  • GlennRubenstein Glenn Rubenstein (@GlennRubenstein) reported

    Why is the frame rate on The Larry Sanders Show suddenly messed up on @hbomax? It was fine a week ago. (Other content doesn’t have this problem, and the streaming frame rate is 1/2 to 2/3 of the DVDs — same problem trying to stream the show across multiple devices) Anyone else?

    @hbomax why does your app suck so hard and barely work?? I’m paying $15 a month! Fix it!

  • itsmiccahy0 “Yeah, *****, we the Kekambas!” (@itsmiccahy0) reported
