    Hey @hbomax your streaming network sucks. I can’t tell you how many times I play something and it takes forever to stream or there’s no sound. The latest is the #BeeGeesHBO documentary. This isn’t a problem on my end with my TV or Internet. Do Better!

    @bonnibelblight @hbomax WAIT WHY WERE U TAGGED?? HELP I’M STRUGGLING

  • skrungus SerSkrungus (@skrungus) reported

    @hbomax okay im having some serious issues with this app, I cant get it to sign in with my tv provider, so far the only way to watch this is by screen mirroring from an Iphone to my tv. Whe i upgrade my cable service to include HBO for 40 extra bucks it should work properly!!

  • gilbertchrispin Gilbert Chrispin (@gilbertchrispin) reported

    @hbomax why do I keep getting errors that you aren't recognizing my prime video subscription? Also, why don't you have 12 dates of Xmas available on prime? Why is using this app so damn difficult? Why not set it up like hbo go or cinemax? What the hell?

  • BruceCoulterPh1 BruceCoulterPhotos (@BruceCoulterPh1) reported

    @hbomax @WarnerMedia I've debated on using the service on my TV and phone. But after reading the reviews on Google Play, I'm going to wait until you figure it out. For $15 a month, your apps should work.

  • Ms_KrisNicole Kristin Nicole (@Ms_KrisNicole) reported

    @hbomax the sound is not working when I try to stream from the HBO Max app. Please help.

  • rachhill Ray Ray (@rachhill) reported

    @icannothelpyou @HBOMaxHelp We have the same problem. Paid for HBO through xfinity and it says only one episode is available for the flight attendant...

  • ArthurQ53182897 DCoverEverything (@ArthurQ53182897) reported

    @QueenBeast420 @HBO @hbomax Does it say “sign in”? You just need to sign in with the same credentials and no it doesn’t mean duplicate payments. It’s all one HBO bill.

  • hardestcoreest Marina Marischino (@hardestcoreest) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp but why did it work b4 is the mystery?!

  • wennpa Wendy (@wennpa) reported

    @KevinPlantz @HBO @hbomax I already pay for it thru DirecTV so I don't have to pay extra for it. The only problem I have is that is not on Roku, maybe it will be at some point but to turn on my ps4 just to watch drives me nuts. Never tried Hulu.

  • mrhappybw Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported

    @hbomax had pretty much ruined tv for some people until they and @Roku work out a deal.

  • Quillermo216 Guillermo Crosby 🇵🇦🇯🇲 (@Quillermo216) reported from San Diego, California

    @HBOMaxHelp serious question was trying to watch some movies on my laptop and it’s not working?

  • Pawan54605926 Pawan (@Pawan54605926) reported

  • fawndolyn fawn (@fawndolyn) reported

    @hbomax @OweeeeenDennis Hazel!! And Tuba! Not entirely convinced Tuba didn’t enter the train and somehow find a mechanism to help her speak. I was hoping for her backstory.

  • HiltonCaston mablex (@HiltonCaston) reported

    @hbomax This film is an example of terrible improv directing.

  • stinkbait99 sweetpea (@stinkbait99) reported

    @hbomax Hey The app doesn’t work

  • BunzisaurusRex Ashley Bunzol (@BunzisaurusRex) reported

    Can @Roku and @hbomax find a way to make things work together already? I want to watch @FriendsTV.

  • jJeremyWayneJWA Jeremy Wayne (@jJeremyWayneJWA) reported

    @hbomax So achingly slow, so unfathomably awful, I can’t in my whole wide life ever recall seeing a film which was such a load of self-indulgent tosh.

  • hardestcoreest Marina Marischino (@hardestcoreest) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp :( its broken on Brave, but still works on chrome which is weird but whatever. i will just begrudgingly use another browser

  • MlLFGENDER joel mchale (real) (@MlLFGENDER) reported

  • EmmaDanielle4 emma danielle (@EmmaDanielle4) reported

    @HBO @hbomax @Xfinity Let them all talk is not available to select to view. Can you fix that please? #LetThemAllTalk

  • JustAtwetr Jonesing (@JustAtwetr) reported

    @rckchkhwk I'd love to. BUT I made the tragic error of buying a @Roku TV so I can't watch @hbomax
