  • Marilouie Marilu Kroll (@Marilouie) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp is there any way to talk to a human about an issue with my service? I can't get through a show without HBO freezing and then skipping back a few seconds and repeating until we turn it off. Close out everything and it does it again. Reinstalled already.

  • TheeChadSmith THEE Chad (@TheeChadSmith) reported from Norwalk, Iowa

    @hbomax - is there some reason your streaming service crashes when I try to use is for streaming purposes? I use Netflix, Amazon Prime, even the garbage Peacock (not for long)… No issues. HBOMax, constant fails. Why you so booty Bro?

  • amanda30157 amanda trafton (@amanda30157) reported

    @MatthewACherry @hbomax is the worst. Just does whatever it wants but the content is great.

  • gatorneiljr Gator Neil Jr. (@gatorneiljr) reported

    Hey wow our @hbomax experience has been good lately. No crashing issues on our Roku for a couple days. Did they finally fix it?

  • SirBosshog Steph Currency (@SirBosshog) reported

    SMH imagine you work on the @hbomax app and have to live with the fact you let down millions of people every single day

  • MsJessicaMarie8 Juliet✨ (@MsJessicaMarie8) reported

    @hbomax has such a great variety of shows and movies but the app is so awful it might not be worth it to keep the service 🙄

  • zzombieeee ńïçhøłåš (@zzombieeee) reported

    @SnreedCrapke @hbomax Videos crash constantly. App lags terribly. It’s a **** sandwich with pubes on top.

  • bentg Ben (@bentg) reported

    @rodimusprime @hbomax is the worst of the bunch.

  • thegamingseo TheGamingSEO (@thegamingseo) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I deleted and reinstalled the app as well as restarted my playstation but same problem occurs randomly each movir

  • ChrisLeeburjay Chris Leeburjay (@ChrisLeeburjay) reported

    Free idea for @WB: move #Dune to an exclusive theatrical release for at least 2 weeks, and offer @hbomax subscribers 2 free tickets per account for opening weekend. Should still help them bring in new subs while giving the franchise a fighting chance at theatrical success.

  • mitchg3246 Mike (@mitchg3246) reported

    @aHyerPower @hbomax Terrible, though the only way I’ve found it works better is on the PS5.

  • realjennswan Jenn Swan (@realjennswan) reported

    It just feels like after 8.5 months on the Roku platform that @hbomax would have ******* figured out how to fix the glitch that shuts down your whole *** tv anytime you try to watch anything.

  • dudewhatmyguy Mr Noodle’s Idiot Son (@dudewhatmyguy) reported

    @hbomax fix your **** man god damn

  • MissNikkiBayBii Nicole Evans (@MissNikkiBayBii) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp No matter what I’m trying to watch it gets interrupted multiple times with an error message and makes me close the app

  • Brown_Golf Cory Brown (@Brown_Golf) reported

    The feature on @hbomax where you get the 3 dots on the bottom of the screen and the app freezes momentarily and then plays for a split second before freezing longer every 30 seconds is great. Keep up the good work

  • MariaMareea Maria Berger (@MariaMareea) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I can't login to the mobile app when using a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 5G?

  • herroconhache V (@herroconhache) reported

    The @hbomax app is the worst thing I've had to deal with in years, and I've worked at call centers.

  • filterhits filter hits (@filterhits) reported

    Fix your damn app bro @hbomax

  • Tumultuous 😷Suzanne💉 (@Tumultuous) reported

    Oh my god the @hbomax app on my tv is the worst in the world. Crashes EVERY SINGLE TIME. To the point where the whole tv freezes! It’s absurd.

  • FaerieJ Procrastinating Pagan (@FaerieJ) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It does not help. On the ROKU, I got about 10 seconds into a movie and the app closed out. On the PS4, still get the error message interruptions repeatedly. I have no issues with any other streaming app on either device.

  • WiscoViking I am the Zombie Woof (@WiscoViking) reported

    @mitchg3246 @aHyerPower @hbomax You guys think it’s the roku device and not the app? I’ve never had an issue but only used it with PS

  • seanblack1500 Baltimores Very Own... (@seanblack1500) reported

    @HBO @hbomax It would be great if I could watch The Wire but the stupid *** Johnny Walker ad been stuck in my screen for 30 minutes and won't play. I know I'm only paying 99.99 for this horse **** of a streaming service. I just figured when I use it it would work.

  • sir_micks_alot Sir-Micks-A-Lot, White Bear Summer (@sir_micks_alot) reported

    .@hbomax FIX THIS

  • unfoldedbeagle thecrowdisuntruth (@unfoldedbeagle) reported

    @theMadJayWoman @hbomax It is unwatchable. And that is a common feature in most streaming apps that can be easily be turned on and off. HBO Max is just terrible.

  • svenfan87 Tristan (@svenfan87) reported

    @MurphTheClown @hbomax If that's the case. Then, someone's bringing there personal life to work. BTW, I would love to know @GroovyBruce take on this.
