    @hbomaxhelp Hi, I am writing to report a persistent issue with the Max app on my Apple TV 4K. Despite having a Premium subscription, my video quality remains stuck at 720p, while I should be getting 4K UHD or 1080p.

    @TonyKhan this deal you’ve made with HBO has made it impossible to watch your PPVs. @hbomax has the worst customer service I’ve ever seen in my life. Literally no help or assistance whatsoever to give me access to the PPV or to get my money back after waiting hours. This is bs.

    Hey @hbomax y’all need to fix your app! At the very least, add a restart option to episodic shows. Spoilers and having to hit rewind is just bad UX!

    @addievervale @hbomax Do your subtitles work? Mine don't and my mum can't hear 🫩 the Pitt is the only reason I paid for this subscription

    @hbomaxhelp I'm not doing a chat bot when it's your audio engineers not doing their jobs. Announce team to 90ish percent to overmod, the crowd should be 70ish % of that and the ring mic should be 40ish % of the crowd. Problem solved.

    @LGUS @hbomax Bought an LG stove Dec 2025 — broke within a week. 5 service visits, none fixed it. 4‑hour windows cost me work/pay. Escalations ignored, no callback. LG service is terrible — do your research before buying.

    @hbomaxhelp @MMoneyCarson Your app is super frustrating. It gets stuck at the ad break and loops without moving on. Restarting is not a great fix. It seems like a glitch at your end, how about posting something helpful about this instead of making customers troubleshoot?

    @hbomaxhelp so you can't help me then? shall I just delete my subscription ?

    @hbomax This is complete BS. Why can't I just sign in with my provider like I used to be able to. I lost all of my settings because of it. 🤬
