    @HBOMaxHelp I am using the app on a TCL Roku TV. The screen goes black and then I have to go back to the main Roku app screen and reload the HBO Max app. It's the only app I use that has this problem on this TV.

  • GaddafisStylist Gaddafi's Stylist (@GaddafisStylist) reported

    @hbomax WHY DOES HBO APP MAKE NAVIGATION SOUNDS WHEN I TURNED THEM OFF ON MY FIRE TV? Also why is there no way to turn it off in the app setting? Kudos for the extreme subtitle options but seriously FIX YOUR APP

    @RyanEvans29 @SeanRossSapp @hbomax The issue seems to be mostly when using it on a Samsung TV. Mine freezes constantly

  • johnapple007 seb (@johnapple007) reported

    @SeanRossSapp @hbomax The app is comically bad and HBO gives zero clarity on the issue. They have great content but I’m starting to think it’s not worth it

    @hbomax Max is an absolute joke. Constantly unable to use the service through my internet/cable provider and not able to correct the problem despite their lengthy instructions. Thank god I am not paying for this crap.
