    @HBOMaxHelp Sorry I won't do that because I did that around April and the only thing I got was requesting a bunch of pictures and videos and nothing has been fix. Check you ticket system and you will see.

  • ejbs22 E (@ejbs22) reported

    Your app is currently broken @hbomax

  • maddamn33 Lu ❤️‍🩹 🏴‍☠️ (@maddamn33) reported

    @hbomax if you need help to promote the show just ask

  • zengreenyoda zengreenyoda (@zengreenyoda) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Update needed ! Your recent update took away full screen zoom from Apple devices like iPhones and iPads ! That is your biggest subscriber base. Fix it. We hate movies with ugly bars on the side of the screen miniaturizing the film. Films are meant for fullscreen

  • NextGen_Gamer Cass Miller (@NextGen_Gamer) reported

    @RealityPales @hbomax @HBO Exactly. There was a point in time, not long ago, where any given HBO show was better than literally any other TV show, in quality. It might not have been a show for you, genre/story-wise, but the acting/sound mix/cinematography/pacing/etc would all be significantly better.

  • Maybe_JustWrite J is ? (@Maybe_JustWrite) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I cant login in on chrome

  • DawiredChris DawiredChristian (PS4) (@DawiredChris) reported

    @crazyauntd @billmaher @hbomax Stewart speaks for only 18 Million of the 332 Million in the USA population. There are more Obese people than Vets. Maher is a better man for tackling a bigger issue that effects US All.

  • PoppsJ Jaypo (@PoppsJ) reported

    @SarahDalyCJ @hbomax Watched it last night. I wish I could have gone, but I had to work instead. The scene with KoRn reminded me of Lollapalooza 97 - in Toronto it was assigned seating and when they came on the seats were literally ripped out of the concrete so people could mosh.

  • TVTweeties TVTweets (@TVTweeties) reported

    @shelly99796982 @discoveryplus @hbomax I’d like to say I’m not that into it, but since I don’t work, I spend way too much time watching. I missed a few seasons of 90Day, but now that I know how much fun it is to tweet with the fam, I’d have a hard time giving it up.

  • teamkelli Kizelli (@teamkelli) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Game of thrones on my phone. The app wouldn’t let me log in so I did desktop site login on my phone

  • gdtrfb1 gdtrfb (@gdtrfb1) reported

    @hbomax Why do you make it so GD hard to sign into my account? I’m at home, on my same device, and every other week you make me sign in again. Honestly, I’m about done with this crap

  • mcribfan69420 Colin Taylor (@mcribfan69420) reported

    @HouseofDragon @hbomax Casting is terrible. Won’t bother watching the show.

  • BastiBarr Sebass Bärr 🇦🇷 (@BastiBarr) reported

    And the award for worst catalog order, similar titles and recommendation goes to.. @hbomax

  • _monapink_ monapink 🏳️‍⚧️🎶 (@_monapink_) reported

    @Lunasticks @hbomax I found that HBO just sometimes ****** YEETS the English subtitles... Which is absolutely horrible bcuz then I'm only half-watching :v Does reloading help?

  • neil_h_watson Neil H. Watson (@neil_h_watson) reported

    Sure @hbomax is awful, but have you tried CraveTV? It's on another level!

  • thejokersaide Uday (@thejokersaide) reported from Inglewood-Finn Hill, Washington

    @HBOMaxHelp I'm just gonna stop watching GOT lol. It's stupid at this point. That's the only title that's having this problem. Clearly somethijng changed over the last few weeks. Simple troubleshooting doesn't fix it.

  • DaveStar19 David Stark (@DaveStar19) reported

    @hbomax Why is "Under the Skin" not working?? Spend more resources on assuring your system actually works.

  • thatdudewil Wil 🤴🏾 (@thatdudewil) reported

    Had a subscription with @hbomax for a awhile and now when I login it's as if my account never had a subscription and I'm still getting charged

  • SydSimmaaa Yung Cutler Bay (@SydSimmaaa) reported

    The @hbomax app is always freezing and glitching. No matter what device/wifi is used. Please fix it!

  • RileyPDawg Shane Perreault (@RileyPDawg) reported

    Riddle me this, @hbomax : Why do certain programs have a complete black screen with full sound and captioning on my BRAND NEW ROKU TV, on all profiles, yet I can see the picture just fine on the app on my phone? There's always an issue with your app. Always

  • JesusSpinTime Jesus Maldonado (@JesusSpinTime) reported

    @JesseKage @hbomax Also fix the freaking app on the Vizio tvs. It's annoying that I can't barely watch anything

  • mikeyperk MikeyPerk (@mikeyperk) reported

    @brgridiron @Lions @hbomax Does this really work for grown *** men? I can it working for college and HS.

  • AttackFromOrbit RHOC-420-Directed 69ms Anti-Matter Beam Cannon (@AttackFromOrbit) reported

    @HouseofDragon @hbomax Oh boy. You ruined the first one with terrible writing at the end. Can't wake to be beat over the head with woke nonsense with the second.

  • orangeandblue77 kevin clark (@orangeandblue77) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @catmomklary Like all of the sudden today it is a small box. All the other streaming apps on my Xbox Series X work fine.

  • LordElfa Elfa® (@LordElfa) reported

    @hbomax @paramountplus You want your streaming services to work? Stop sitting on 4k transfers and put them on the service for crying out loud. 95% of your own catalog on your services are only available in HD even though 4k transfers exist. That's inexcusable.

  • orangeandblue77 kevin clark (@orangeandblue77) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @catmomklary Same problem here

  • brianherrienn Brian Herrien (@brianherrienn) reported

    @hbomax please y’all have to fix the buffering

  • le_avion Avi Schwartz (@le_avion) reported

    Looks like @wbd is destroying the best streaming service @hbomax. We should have known this is going to happen when short term gains are more important than quality. Leave HBO Max alone you blood sucking rats.

  • earth2indie #1 Xiaoting stan (@earth2indie) reported

    @hbomax fix your fcking app 🤨

  • 2020CountMyVote Vote Blue in 2022 (@2020CountMyVote) reported

    @HBO @HBOmax @HBOMaxHelp Why is HBOmax so bad??? Expensive but doesn’t work. Constant lagging, spinning. Not my router, modem or TV bc every other program Netflix, Showtime on Demand. peacock all work fine. I can’t get through more than about 10 minutes w/HBO max then it quits!👎
