    @e_urydice @hbomax Bummers. If you have an iPhone try to cast it directly to the TV and see if that helps the buffering issue. If you use Chromecast **** cuts out non stop.

  • GMEAMCAPE FrankNBeans (@GMEAMCAPE) reported

    @e_urydice @hbomax If you have AT&T unlimited plan, you get HBOMAX for free, fyi. Don't think that will fix your technical issue but wanted to LYK. Also, not sure if you're streaming or casting but I found that casting straight (iPhone casting) to the TV worked better for me than Chromecasting.

    @thirsty_daniel @DCTitans @hbomax Literally I’m so confused why it’s a problem lol I’m just confused is all

  • brycelarson B (@brycelarson) reported

    Hey @hbomax since you and @amazon are breaking up how do I switch my payment over and keep my account? I can't fix it through the app on @Roku. It just tells me my subscription has expired.

  • DyST0piaN_ XanaxanaX (@DyST0piaN_) reported

    @e_urydice @hbomax The app is pretty terrible. It took me a few uses on my smart tv before it finally worked correctly.

    @Night_Hellhound @DCTitans @hbomax Those people directly disrespect comic artists' work. They can argue about writing, but they act like comics are like novels with only words. Being virtual is a big part of comics, and they ignore it completely.

  • LordKojay Kojay (@LordKojay) reported

    @Signs2323 We did a lot of heavy lifting for @hbomax success & we are offering to help & support @warnerbros where all they had to do was stick to their own plans instead of panicking to chase the trends which change by the time they put out their copy pasted finished works.

  • Nelly__99 Nelly (@Nelly__99) reported

    @JustinRoiland @hbomax Bro literally my phone tablet and PlayStation even my Roku always has a Error two minutes into launching the app. HBO is useless

  • bencheslawski BenCheslawski (@bencheslawski) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hasn't worked since you launched the product. The ceo/head honcho said "we are aware and we are going to fix it". Yeah...that never happened LOL.

    @hbomax guys why is it that you have such a good catalog of movies but the only way to access them is your sorry excuse for an application, this buggy mess has put me through so many bad days now that I’m starting to contemplate deleting it, constantly it crashes, worst app ever

  • JSwanny41 Jared Swanson (@JSwanny41) reported

    @kryptoncaged @hbomax @wbpictures Seller lists I’d green light something or get the word out they’re working on it. ANYTHING. Cuz the problem is ZSJL wasn’t the end to the story. Strike while the iron is hot and people are still talking about it 2/2
