Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Jben518 John Bennett (@Jben518) reported

    @HBO @Discovery you know what would be great and get people excited about GOT again and might get people to stream it before the new one? Putting it in 4K on @hbomax!!! It’s already been upscaled for physical disc meaning the work is already done!

  • TaySwift134life #savelegacies / Stelena and Handon forever (@TaySwift134life) reported

    All of my problems would be solved if @netflix or @hbomax would just #SaveLegacies

  • CrastinatorA Pablo Colibrí (@CrastinatorA) reported

    I love how streaming services are competing for worst interface. Obviously @PrimeVideo wins, hands down. But I offer @hbomax as a healthy contender for just absolute ******* garbage.

  • prettyboypres Pretty Boy Preston (@prettyboypres) reported

    @420gurru @hbomax Same here, did they fix it for you?

  • Dj_DeRosevelt Nick DeRose ⬡ (@Dj_DeRosevelt) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp My experience is I’m trying to use this app on my tv to watch things as people do, but apparently this is only a buffer wheel, black screen, and error code app.

  • RiazielGames Riaziel (@RiazielGames) reported

    @hbomax app not working? And the only thing I can find for 'solutions' is to update my app. Thank you for the obvious thing I checked first.

  • NorthernCat Northern Cat in the Hall (@NorthernCat) reported

    @stevierosebudds @hbomax @OurFlagHBOMax Ok help me out here I’m confused. Maybe I missed something here but I never thought about it as a deadname. It’s part of the disguise for their mission/security, is it not?

  • Creaky31489804 creakyreadsjoycecaroloates (@Creaky31489804) reported

    @Dannystrong @RealTimers @hbomax What will you take when you’re in terrible pain?

  • TomLew32 WHOOOOOO (@TomLew32) reported

    @hbomax QUIT MAKING EPISODES SKIP BEFORE THEY END how do you expect everyone to pay 15.99 monthly when you have the worst app out of all of them y’all are lucky you got South Park.

  • Mizz_Juana Juana (@Mizz_Juana) reported

    @hbomaxmovies @hbomax I was so disappointed in this remake. I was so excited but the acting fell flat, movie was plain awful

  • Blackbilly88 BilliamB (@Blackbilly88) reported

    @hbomax for the love of god! Please can you fix it to where, the episodes actually start over when we finish watching them! I have to manually restart EVERY EPISODE!

  • Shadowban4u @Shadowban4u ❌ (@Shadowban4u) reported

    @HBO @hbomax #omfg this trash program #pausewithsamjay justifies the worst behavior in people, or does this significantly represent true black culture? That’s enabling criminality as their own entitlement & now talking about marriage & commitment yet she wants to F with *******

  • jayrobinson Jay Robinson (@jayrobinson) reported

    @_mochs Agreed. I have to search to find every show because they assume you always want the next episode. If they let you jump to the series page from any episode tile, that would help a ton. Also, spacebar doesn’t pause the video player on iPad w/keyboard attached @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp

  • ubieta_beta José R Ubieta (@ubieta_beta) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Worst sci-fi show ever 🤢🤮

  • 68plusone1 68plusone (@68plusone1) reported

    @1Dragos1 @hbomax I'm sorry but it's this sort of comment that perpetuates low quality content. If a work deviate from the vision of the original creator then, it's no longer uphold to the same quality as it was before. Educate yourself m8.

  • bourgeoisalien beth, an alien (@bourgeoisalien) reported

    @gothy_kitty @krystalball @hbomax I have a friend who met him and said he was genuinely one of the worst pieces of **** she ever had the displeasure of encountering

  • Dj_DeRosevelt Nick DeRose ⬡ (@Dj_DeRosevelt) reported

    @hbomax you have created the worst streaming app

  • Fvap9 Frida (@Fvap9) reported

    @wbpictures @hbomax Yeah but the rule of not cancelling #LegendsOfTomorrow shouldn't t have been broken #SaveLegendsOfTomorrow

  • ranbco jaxon (@ranbco) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp i literally cannot log in to hbo max on my computer. it keeps giving me an error message that says my email or password is correct, when i know they are not. i have tried resetting my password already. what do i do

  • ShowMEurBIGGIE Fefita La Grande 🇩🇴 (@ShowMEurBIGGIE) reported

    @hbomax is hands down the WORST streaming app. I pay $15/month just to see a a show called “Playback Error” y’all lucky #Insecure is on there otherwise I would’ve never gotten it.

  • jakepeterson70 Jake Peterson (@jakepeterson70) reported

    @peacockTV has the worst UX in the world.. holy **** didn’t know it could be this bad. Worse than @hbomax and that’s saying something.

  • The_AlphaCo Nippy (@The_AlphaCo) reported

    fix y’all ******* app man @hbomax trying to go back and watch a show is impossible

  • SouthernConLady Jolene ❌ 🇺🇸 (@SouthernConLady) reported

    Don’t offer CC on your network and not have it work 🤬 @hbomax

  • shreks_pinky shreks_pinky (@shreks_pinky) reported

    @hbomax fix your subtitles please 🥺

  • bullebullebull bulle (@bullebullebull) reported

    @iIAx102 @hbomax What about fans actually wanting it? You are not speaking for all fans just because you dislike this idea. This could fix the mess dnd leaved. Whine after you watched it instead

  • arterialturns Amish R&B (@arterialturns) reported

    Are @hbomax and @paramountplus in competition for worst streaming apps? At this point it seems reasonable to suspect they are well aware of the issues and this is some kind of sick experiment.

  • vhmk9542 tayla coulthart ミ☆ (@vhmk9542) reported

    @BaileeMadison @PLLonMax @hbomax It doesn’t work in Australia 😢😢😢

  • sanjihs1 sanji hs (@sanjihs1) reported

    @hbomax The problem is there is no source material for the show and I don't think HBO would agree on this one nor George RR Martin

  • horndog0000 not me (@horndog0000) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @420gurru I have this problem to

  • ActaullyVolatik Volatik (@ActaullyVolatik) reported

    It's embarrassing how #YoungJustice has a huge fandom,is still a quality show and just started what looks to be a good comic with amazing drawing but it still has not been renewed by @hbomax. I'm actually just pissed at 3 in the morning cuz of this. #RenewYoungJustice
