    @tabithamiriam @hbomax I was able to recover my hacked account with the help of @craig_cyber on Instagram. He is trusted and legit. Contact him. Am sure he will help

  • Jayforce Jay Force (@Jayforce) reported

    @uninterrupted @jemelehill @hbomax The "music industry" in today's era dictates who's seen & heard in the mainstream. There's far too many talented artists that don't get the platform. With sports you can't deny talent, but with the "mainstream music industry" its the worst it's ever been.

    @YosephMcBroseph @hbomax HBO Max is king for content but holy shiitttt that app needs work.

  • MCRiveram MCR (@MCRiveram) reported

    @hbomax I'm canceling my @hbomax, this is disgusting, awful, mean and unacceptable!! Who ******** you think your are to use children make fun of them while making profit of the privacy!!! Creepy ******* adults!! #stopbullying

  • TheRavenOf1916 The Raven (@TheRavenOf1916) reported

    @Skullgrin140 @OlynxA @hbomax Those are out there though. I suppose they aren't main stream, but they're out there. The issue isn't necessarily adult animated shows, its just the mainstream audience as a whole. Networks are way more likely to green light comedy shows than anything else

  • TheRavenOf1916 The Raven (@TheRavenOf1916) reported

    @Skullgrin140 @OlynxA @hbomax I 100% agree, but in this one instance, The last 5 episodes whole heartedly feel like a different show. The first 4 are the roughest, but I will say, just give it a shot and then see for yourself. The art is 100% awful though

  • melissa_artemis Melissa M. (@melissa_artemis) reported

    @TignBootzz @hbomax I have the same problem. It It freezes when we try to watch something or there's audio but no picture.

  • zaywap96 Isaiah (@zaywap96) reported

  • HyperionDom SafeDom (@HyperionDom) reported

  • media_dunn MikeDunnMedia (@media_dunn) reported

    @hbomax This is the worst app I’ve ever used on Roku. It crashes every single time, skips and won’t play. Please fix this.

  • tr1stenn tri$ten (@tr1stenn) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Please look into the problem that hbo max is having on consoles. It crashes immediately after opening every time and gives an error

  • MJCate Morgan Cate (@MJCate) reported

    @hbomax the app is having issues projecting the visual, but I can hear my selection. The hbo max has no easy way of finding help. Do you have tech support line?

  • lukeskyewalka 🧞‍♀️ (@lukeskyewalka) reported

    HBO MAX is literally the worst app. I can never just watch **** on there the mf is glitching. Y’all have too much money for this app to be so *** @hbomax

  • Wags_Official Wagnum Opus (@Wags_Official) reported

    @RamTommyInLA @hbomax FF and rewind and pause isn’t responsive at all so you can’t actually use it. Big problem.

  • KatieKedavra Katie (@KatieKedavra) reported

    @hbomax so when are you going to actually fix the error after watching like 2 episodes of something???? It’s been going on for months.

  • _NonFactor Ricky $**** (@_NonFactor) reported

  • chrissyisms 😂😂 (@chrissyisms) reported

  • tabithamiriam tabitha martin 💫 (@tabithamiriam) reported

    So my @hbomax account was hacked three days ago and it still isn’t fixed and I’m pretty pissed bc im paying for a service that a complete stranger is using. How is it taking this long to fix this?!??

  • treyb_ Trey Broussard (@treyb_) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m using an Amazon Firestick 4K and Dolby Vision is not working. Regular HDR turns on instead. My TV is an LG OLED CX. Please fix.

  • markymarkfunkin Marky Mark (@markymarkfunkin) reported

    @farrahsafiakhan @hbomax @nbcsnl People living in a fantasy world inventing “absolute” rules about jokes encapsulates everything that’s wrong with society today. 💯 You are the worst type of person Farrah, and I resent the internet for ruining society by giving people like you a platform and voice. 👍

  • gretchiekc 🕰🌼 gretchen 🕰🌼 🇺🇸 (@gretchiekc) reported

    @superscuba83 @hbomax @GaryJanetti all of them should be ashamed of themselves for parodying real children. I guarantee you MM would take MASSIVE issue if it was Archie…hell Orlando Bloom and Sophie Turner wouldn’t like a show about their kids either. It’s gross.
