    @hbomax you need to fix your app. People watch things more than once. Have you hear of restart or play from the beginning? Great, common sense features that nearly every platform has

  • Bee4oreal Stros' B4Hoes (@Bee4oreal) reported

    @hbomax why won't my app work on roku or fire stick?

  • LaceyMWade Squishy Le' Squish💙 (@LaceyMWade) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I've been unable to play any season/episode of South Park without the error " Can't Play Title We're having trouble playing this video" Everything else plays fine. Is there an outage?

  • soapreporter Rene T. (@soapreporter) reported

    OMG the @hbomax app is THE WORST. It buffers constantly and then the show starts over. And NO it isn’t my internet. None of my other streaming apps are buffering like this!

  • TennesseyHoney MORANT JR. (@TennesseyHoney) reported

    So I get @hbomax and the sound won’t even work.... I need my funds back

  • devinganger Devin Ganger - BLACK LIVES MATTER (@devinganger) reported

    Hey @hbomax Babylon5 S1E21 “Babylon Squared” has audio sync problems that are preventing watching the last few minutes of the episode. How do we get support for this/get it fixed?

  • JohnThomasJR20 John Thomas JR (@JohnThomasJR20) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Hi Still Not Working

  • yungyohnnyy JMX (@yungyohnnyy) reported

    @hbomax it is profoundly absurd to not have a ‘Play From Beginning’ option on the site. Having to watch a movie in reverse is awful. Get it together please, I beg you.

  • JayTeeDee Darth Grogu (@JayTeeDee) reported

    So I’m scrolling thru @hbomax looking for a cheesy horror movie and I see that @Mariska was in ’Ghoulies’! Don’t y’all ever tell me paying your dues and hard work doesn’t get you far in life!

  • Reel_KA_Thomas K.A. Thomas (@Reel_KA_Thomas) reported

    . @hbomax trying to watch a program on your service but the closed captioning is not working. I’ve tried to solve on my own- can you assist in this matter?

  • Shawnman71 Spanky (@Shawnman71) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp The Little Things is almost unwatchable. I have tried everything in your problem solving link. I have a 4K 2019 LG, Roku 4K, & Fire TV 4K. I get 600mbps download & have had no issues with other apps or other shows on your app. Just, The Little Things & WW1984. It’s your servers.

  • f_ing_nosferatu ******* Nosferatu (@f_ing_nosferatu) reported

    @hbomax succession sn1 ep6 is in spanish only - even when it says it's in english - can you fix this ?

  • pinkbunnyr Pink Bunny (@pinkbunnyr) reported

    @OBrien64 @Cartarsauce @hbomax That’s what they said in the documentary! The brakes didn’t work. Did they spray you with the horrible spray at the infirmary?

  • FatrickYuhomes Fatrick Yuhomes (@FatrickYuhomes) reported

    @hbomax @wbpictures Can't even watch 4K HDR on my TV app. Disney+ and Amazon do this no problem. Who ******** wants a roku it's 2021.

  • FatrickYuhomes Fatrick Yuhomes (@FatrickYuhomes) reported

    Yo @hbomax why on earth can I not stream 4k HDR on my TV app? It's 2021, there's literally no reason for this. Your compatible device list is a joke. #AmazonPrime and #DisneyPlus do this no problem. #StepYourGameUp

  • Beachnut10 V (@Beachnut10) reported

    @hbomax Someone needs to write more quality shows like this instead of all those reality, game and superhero/vampire shows.

    @hbomax I am stuck in an endless loop of signing in thru my tv provider, trying to watch something, and then being asked to renew subscription/restore from iTunes and then signing in again. Over and over. It used to work fine. Please help.

  • HansEworth Hope Walker (@HansEworth) reported

    @HBODocs @hbomax Their ideas and work have been stolen for centuries, and they have been ignored or fetishized. Why are we couching our words here?

  • JohnThomasJR20 John Thomas JR (@JohnThomasJR20) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I Been watching Thru MY PC Can Not Get your Roku to go Please Please Just Fix

  • AmericanDisastr Russ (@AmericanDisastr) reported

    @hbomax Do you know how insulting it is that the ads will play flawlessly before but then magically errors when starting the actual show? HBO max app needs massive work. Laggy & slow.

  • JohnThomasJR20 John Thomas JR (@JohnThomasJR20) reported

  • armbro19 Armbro19 (@armbro19) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp watching and loving “the flight attendant”!!! However, the sound has gone out 3 times in 2 episodes. In real time, no lag or hiccup in picture. Just gone! Also, during everything we watch - there is a hiccup or glitch in picture and sound. Annoying after awhile. Help!
