    Jesus @hbomax I hope you have your best minds hard at work on this app, because for the last two months everything I watch longer than an hour has been freezing/stuttering like I'm watching a QuickTime video in 2005.

  • melgrl99 AllOfThemWitches (@melgrl99) reported

    It is mind blowing how truly awful the @hbomax app is. Just constantly crashing while all other streaming apps work fine. All the money in the world and they can’t get this damn thing to work.

    @hbomax Had @hbomax for over a year and the app is the worst streaming app available. I love the content, just wish the app worked consistently. For $15/mo, I would expect at least as good as other streaming apps.
