    @AndJustLikeThat @hbomax She’s the worst character

  • CRDFilm Charles Duncan (button pusher) (@CRDFilm) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @THEmj_naval I keep seeing all of these tweets about the HBO Max app and I have not had a single issue with it on Apple TV, iPad or an Android phone. I will say it’s a little sluggish on Roku but it still works .

  • Talltampaguy Ben (@Talltampaguy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I really appreciate the response. I just spent about 1/2 hour on the phone with customer service. He was very nice but no resolution. For some reason the app is now operating on the tv. For some reason this issue is random on one of 3 devices

  • mista_sss mista s (@mista_sss) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I see that there’s ton of new complaint posts every minute here. But all I see is “dm us and we can help”. Has ANYONE actually resolved their app issue? I’m still not getting anything fixed and app still broken

  • bryan_bryk Bryan Bryk (@bryan_bryk) reported

    @hbomax Hey your upload of The Larry Sanders show is awful. Terrible frame rate, bad resolution. What gives?

  • mista_sss mista s (@mista_sss) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp your app hasn’t worked for many days now…. Not reliable app to watch movies or shows if app doesn’t work at all…. iPhone, iPad, fire stick…. All broken. Reset, delete/reboot, tried everything but still not working…. Time to say Good bye HBO Max app soon.

  • ArrBee777 ArrBee (@ArrBee777) reported

    @Nope_No_way_FU I’ll NEVER watch the reboot of SATC bcuz they killed off Big! I subscribed to @hbomax and #canceled. The heart attack scene triggered so much personal pain for me, the WORST! I was a fan since the 90s how could they ruin it after all we invested in Carrie n Big?!!! @SJP

  • ThatOneTomato Tomato (@ThatOneTomato) reported

    @hbomax make your service work any kind of better from cheaper and free streaming services...ffs you got game of thrones money you can afford it

  • TheRealJQB Jalen Bell (@TheRealJQB) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It was while streaming on the cell phone but I see yall put out a newer version of the app I just downloaded. Fixed that issue. Thanks

  • alison_renner Alison Renner (@alison_renner) reported

    It amazes me how much the @hbomax app gets roasted yet there has been absolutely no effort to fix it. I had to watch the Succession season finale on my 15” laptop 🙄

  • TwerksumWorksum Mia Mac (@TwerksumWorksum) reported

    My hbo max app not working this is day 2 @hbomax

  • __PRAVEEN____ Praveen (@__PRAVEEN____) reported

    @MzGossipGirl @hbomax Love your content, always did, but please fix your UI. Are there any remedies being taken?

  • OneBitterDude GΛ𐌑𐌑Λ J𐌞CK (@OneBitterDude) reported

    @paramountplus please fix your completely busted app. It’s worse than @hbomax and @ESPNPlus and that’s saying a lot

  • DakarriMuhammad Karri (@DakarriMuhammad) reported

    @hbomax please for the love of God fix your user interface

  • maires_here maire (@maires_here) reported

    @mischief2222 @hbomax Same. And I watched every episode of SATC. This over styled, over acted spin-off is just terrible.

  • kategood Kate Good (@kategood) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Update. I did all the steps suggested on your troubleshoot page. I am unable to watch anything on @hbomax on my Roku. I am able to see everything on another TV that has a 4K Roku. Any idea what could be the problem?

  • usernamebot1980 5am eternal (@usernamebot1980) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp someone signed up for an account with my email. I can't fix this because I live in Australia. Please help me.

  • mikealbeland Mikeal Beland (@mikealbeland) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp won’t let me reset my password to watch my subscription while on the road, so I’m going to cancel & burn the app to the ground off my phone unless this error is resolved.

  • KemberDreams AK (@KemberDreams) reported

    Fam @hbomax all I’m trying to do is watch the wire. I can’t get thru one episode without your funky *** app buffering. Fix this ****!!!

  • EvryManAWildcat 𝗢𝘇𝘇𝘆 (@EvryManAWildcat) reported

    @alison_renner @hbomax The app is awful for all devices, the site frequently crashes Google Chrome on desktop... It's a complete joke and HBO doesn't give one single **** about the people shelling out $15 a month.

  • praotesinvest praotes (@praotesinvest) reported

    @KristinDavis @AndJustLikeThat @hbomax stop messing with your face your looking like the joker, you were so beautiful and now you are looking horrible with so much plastic surgery fire him natural look is more beautiful than fake joker look.. your mouth is reaching your ears is so big now. you need help intervention

  • rip327 Raul Planas (@rip327) reported

    @gifdsports @vrp2003 Completely agree. @hbomax has by far the worst app and interface of all streaming content providers.

  • jmrxrn Jean (@jmrxrn) reported

    JC, the @hbomax app might just be the worst app out there. Watching a 30 min show will take at least an hour with the buffering, etc.

  • hvngsolo . (@hvngsolo) reported

    @22libraprincess @hbomax Because I keep missing scenes and when I rewind my **** has an epileptic seizure. Also I might need a bong rip I tried going cold turkey today.... not working out lol smh

  • ItsGoingToRayne Carlos (@ItsGoingToRayne) reported

    @hbomax can y’all fix your streaming yalls kids movies keep freezing on the be right back page and my kids can’t watch their movies.

  • TheRealJQB Jalen Bell (@TheRealJQB) reported

    @hbomax is a really 🔥 app but the fact that you can’t rewind while watching the episode is super trash. Y’all gotta fix that lol

  • jmrxrn Jean (@jmrxrn) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp My IPad (IOS 15.1 and/or laptop. Buffers almost every 5-10 minutes and sometimes error message: video not working.

  • SamIsTruth Storm (@SamIsTruth) reported

    Ok so @HBOMax doesn’t work on any of my TVs currently. Can’t download it on my LG. Won’t update on my Samsung. I’m paying for this monthly. How sway?

  • rip327 Raul Planas (@rip327) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Not issue per se. Just the navigation and search functionality is so unintelligible compared to other services like Netflix and Prime Video. Seriously need to replace entire IX team and start from scratch on user design.

  • shanemkelley ShaneMK (@shanemkelley) reported

    @hbomax you better fix your servers before the new @TheMatrixMovie no one likes buffering.
