    Does anybody else's @hbomax app shut off after 2 episodes of a program? For the past 3 days, everytime after 2 episodes of a show HBOMax says "error no internet connection" even though I still have a high internet connection. What's wrong with the @hbomax app on @xbox?

    @aaronrift @hbomax I requested a refund from Apple and ordered on my traditional PPV. HBO Max has so many issues every PPV it feels like. I’ve never had a perfect experience

    @hbomaxhelp Hi, I am writing to report a persistent issue with the Max app on my Apple TV 4K. Despite having a Premium subscription, my video quality remains stuck at 720p, while I should be getting 4K UHD or 1080p.

    @hbomaxhelp hey guys the @AEW feed is awful....the audio doesn't work. Like seriously this is 2026. @TonyKhan you should realize there is an issue.

    @hbomax if you can't competently stream live sports, give it to someone else. Choppy, audio goes out of sync... This is the worst garbage stream I've ever had to deal with.

    @wbd @HBO @hbomax Congratulations! Thanks to you, the entire Harry Potter franchise has become a laughingstock. Every day there are mocking edits, and you don't care about these complaints at all! You're awful, absolutely awful!

    @hbomax I was hoping that the video quality of your sport stream on TNT would improve now you are in charge. Why is the image quality so bad compared to Sky and Amazon Prime? I am paying a lot for HBOmax with TNT sport and the image quality on TNT is rubbish compared to others

    Hey @hbomax y’all need to fix your app! At the very least, add a restart option to episodic shows. Spoilers and having to hit rewind is just bad UX!

    @hbomax - Might be a new stream service here in the UK, but damn it's awful. Just watched Batman v Superman, and the quality was like bad dvd quality, and it changed aspect ratio...frequently. Never, ever had that in my life. 1 month sub, quit.

    @aaronrift @hbomax I got the error and backed out and went back and it's been fine all night.

    @AEW @hbomax I just want my stupid $42.19. Please. I dont understand why this is such a hassle. I paid for a product that did not work. Times are too tough for me to just forget about 40 dollars. Can someone please help me out here? @TonyKhan ?

    @aaronrift @hbomax I had a lot of problems with authenticating devices as well. My TV was the last that worked. Ruined opening match for me. PPVs looks amazing in Dolby Vision, so I'll stick with it. I'd make Dynasty $19.99 for subscribers and purchasers of Revolution. Make it right.

    @hbomaxhelp I can barely stream anything and watch it. Keep having to stop and start because the audio is not in sync with the video. Please fix this issue.

    @hbomaxhelp @JdotChilds The sound during the commercials is just awful. Streaming HBO Max March Madness games. Please change the commercial, it has a very annoying sound.

    @hbomax @StreamOnMax Keep going with the woke BULLSHIT on The Pitt, and you’ll lose this viewer and the REST of our ED. Ridiculous. You have a solid, medically accurate (to a point) show, but yet EVERY week, some woke **** slips its way in the episode. This week? ICE And let me inform you if this- Not ONE of us working in a busy ED care if people are LEAVING the EMERGENCY WAITING ROOM for their NON EMERGENCY ISSUES. Jerkoffs.
