    @HBOMaxHelp I stream on the PS4. The app won’t load. Every time I try I get an error message. I’ve checked my internet. Speed is great. Rebooted my router anyway. Deleted and reinstalled app. Still won’t work.

    @HBOMaxHelp Having issues getting a movie to play in your app on Xfinity. Any ideas?

  • Parkerevermore parker (@Parkerevermore) reported

    @WickedYetKind @HBOMaxHelp robyn, i think you have the right idea. nothing is more frustrating than paying for something that won't work. sadly, this product looks like it doesn't work. i am cancelling this weekend. i'll miss some of the shows. but what's the choice? it doesn't work anyway.

  • thaest1981 THA (@thaest1981) reported

    Hey @hbomax you know what's not worth 14.99 a month? An app that constantly errors out and has to be restarted

  • carboy76 J Dub (@carboy76) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I am a xfinity subscriber and my hbo max says it cannot verify my subscription. Please signed in again to the app but it still doesn’t work.

  • the_nashbelle Juicy J&J (@the_nashbelle) reported

    @Mikem717 @hbomax The content is pretty good but the @hbomax platform is TERRIBLE.

  • patnarav Ravdawg Millionaire (@patnarav) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hi, thank you for getting back to me. We are having trouble with the app on our Samsung TV. The TVs model code is QN49Q6FAM. I’ve assumed this is an HBO issue because I don’t have trouble with other apps.

  • k_leach Kristin (@k_leach) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp No update available on the app or Fire Stick. Did all troubleshooting again, cleared data, uninstalled app then reinstalled, still not working.

  • DimeStoreRiot Chad Eagleton (@DimeStoreRiot) reported

    @hbomax I stream on the PS4. The app will not load. I keep getting an error message. It’s not my internet. I’ve checked that and rebooted my router. I’ve deleted and re-installed the app. It will not load.

  • Elaros_Rises gregory wade (@Elaros_Rises) reported

    @hbomax is there a fix for your app on @Roku

  • AmberlinTanneh1 Amberlin (@AmberlinTanneh1) reported

    @hbomax what is up with the rewind and fast forward? You HAVE to fix this. It’s making your app unwatchable.

  • Zplayer_17 Isaiah || ITS PRIDE MONTH ******* 🌈✨ (@Zplayer_17) reported

    @hbomax @KingJames Literally no one cares. This movie is going to be awful. ..An Infinity Train movie tho 👀

  • BobbiLevicie Bobbi Ann Levicie (@BobbiLevicie) reported

    @hbomax Is there some technical issue going on? I’m trying to watch the remaining episodes of “Legendary” but it keeps returning back to the homescreen. I was given a code to verify my subscription and I still can’t watch any shows? Any idea what’s going on? Copying @Xfinity

  • ATXgossipDani Dani at ATXgossip.com & Austin.com (@ATXgossipDani) reported

    Is anyone else having problems getting In The Heights to play on HBO Max? @intheheights @hbomax

  • rashikdgaf 𝕽𝖆𝖘𝖍𝖎𝕶 (@rashikdgaf) reported

    why is hbo max having so many issues? i keep getting kicked out.. they didn’t have an issue charging my account earlier tho… @hbomax

  • mmerzer Martin Merzer (@mmerzer) reported

    @hbomax The HBO Max app through Xfinity has been broken for days. It allows us to sign in (most of the time) and select a program (Hacks or In The Heights, etc.), but it just loops back to the selection page or reports "unexpected error." Get your acts together, pls.

  • RichardBeasimer Richard R. Beasimer (@RichardBeasimer) reported

    @hbomax fix. Your. App.

  • AmberlinTanneh1 Amberlin (@AmberlinTanneh1) reported

    @hbomax @KingJames Are you working on fixing the fast forward and rewind settings on the Fire TV app? It’s completely unwatchable. Please fix!

  • TLindsey_Coach TL (@TLindsey_Coach) reported

    is @hbomax always so laggy? wow paying $15 a month to have lag after lag after lag......its not my computer, netflix, peackock, hulu all work fine. but not HBO Max.....are you not able to play it while working in other windows either?

  • Victor_E_Malice Dr Victor E. Malice (@Victor_E_Malice) reported

    @hbomax And I know it’s not my internet connection, because Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube all work fine. It’s just your PS4 app that I get the error with. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and the same issue pursued. #HBOMax #hbomaxPS4error #helpme

  • ephilp Eric Philp (@ephilp) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Have to tell you I need to unplug my tv every time to get your app to work. This is the only app on my Samsung tv that has this issue.

  • Carter__0891 Mild Girl Summer (@Carter__0891) reported

    Fix your damn app!!! @hbomax

  • currlygurrl DarcieB (@currlygurrl) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp what’s going on with the audio descriptions? No matter what I watch I can’t turn them off. What am I doing wrong? Never been a problem before.

  • justsaysoph Sophie 🔆🌞 (@justsaysoph) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @cjrichmond15 I have to restart the app every time I pause a show and try to go back to it. Can you guys fix that?
