  • DawgBone90 DJT (@DawgBone90) reported

    @HBO @hbomax This is absolutely what’s wrong with this country…when Hollywood glorifies this kind of sick sh*t and veers as far from normalcy as possible. God help us!

  • JimmyDoddle The Doodle (@JimmyDoddle) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Closed captions only show when timeline is displayed on the screen. This is using the HBOMax app on an AirTV Mini (Android TV device running Android 9). App ver. is 50.50.0.86. I read this also happens on Tivo 4K device. CC use to work all the time. Any info?

  • sapphirefinch Josie Walker (@sapphirefinch) reported

    @succession @hbomax The worst. Paint drying

  • jasperse75 Andrew Jasperse (@jasperse75) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp helped me fix this. Appreciate the service.

  • _marcoribeirojr Marco Ribeiro Jr (@_marcoribeirojr) reported

    @ProtonSupport Hey @ProtonVPN, thanks for the reply. I'm a plus user and I'm in Brazil. I use the service on every device I have. About streaming, I have no problem accessing the main services, except for @hbomax which blocks access using my country's server list.

  • FreddyG51580938 Freddy Gonzalez (@FreddyG51580938) reported

    @hbomax as well as Take Me Home Tonight. So far you have 3 movies not working. Can I get some king of refund. You’re charging for a service and not providing.

  • HeinricyLinda Linda Heinricy (@HeinricyLinda) reported

    @succession @hbomax Terrible show and they call it one of their best.

  • DCuplink Datacenter's Haunted 💻 👻 (@DCuplink) reported

    @mikecherry @aglerj @hbomax Damn that sucks! Yeah going DTS solves it for most cases but some apps/movies still have issues as you've experienced. I can't reme.... Talked through it with Mrs. It was Disney plus and I think one of the newer SW films that made me go nuts about it.

  • generictex Generic Texan ➕ (@generictex) reported

    So many people watching Dune on @hbomax that my app is broken.

  • HesterCarroll20 HesterCarroll (@HesterCarroll20) reported

    @BatmanvSuperman @hbomax Who will help me with advice?

  • mulatto_91 Q (@mulatto_91) reported

    @hbomax When are yall going to fix the low volume issue?

  • Fochick35 💗Brodhisattva💗 (@Fochick35) reported

    @hbomax why is you app such trash? I have 1k MB/sec internet and I never have issues with Netflix, vudu, hulu, or games. Your app is constantly buffering and quitting. Absolute garbage for a major company to have such a poor streaming service. 0/10 - Do not recommend #HBOMax

  • EricScott_NYC Eric Sears (@EricScott_NYC) reported

    @hbomax I bought this subscription only for @dunemovie. This was the worst adaptation of a book I have ever seen. The cinematography was spectacular, but HOW DO YOU LEAVE OUT KEY CHARACTERS? How do you leave out the backstory of humanity and machines ?!? #Dune

  • edmyni Sol (@edmyni) reported

    @ygk24 @HBOMaxHelp If not for the help of Smartcr4ck on Instagram i wouldn't have gotten back my account after all this while

  • Metaldave85 Metal Dave (@Metaldave85) reported

  • AndrewSaporetti Andrew Saporetti (@AndrewSaporetti) reported

    @Omahaplayer2 @hbomax @Roku Roku is terrible! Same issue. Crashes everytime!

  • ygk24 Wai-kean Jackson (@ygk24) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp everytime I log in it says don't miss out log in again then when I go to my account it says my subscription expired and it hasn't! Can someone help me because suddenlink can't!

  • Metaldave85 Metal Dave (@Metaldave85) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp Can’t watch. Not working at all, can’t select anything to watch.

  • rintaroshinsei れなと  (@rintaroshinsei) reported

    @hbomax need to fix its ******* Android app. 😾🙊

  • Fochick35 💗Brodhisattva💗 (@Fochick35) reported

    @hbomax Saying it's playing on #HBOMax is a big stretch since it's cut out and buffered at least 6 times in the first hour I've been watching. Fix your service

  • Gaybsss henke.gabriel no Instagram ❁ (@Gaybsss) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @HBOMaxSuporte @HBOMaxSoporte The problem is that we all paid for a service that doesn't work well. We are just having a purple HBO Go.

  • dc_xl David Brown (@dc_xl) reported

    Why is the @hbomax app so broken on the @nvidiashield

  • 17thoughts2 17thoughts2 (@17thoughts2) reported

    @hbomax Please stop screwing up Titans. **** Grayson is the worst part of the show and he takes up 75% of the time. We want to see the Titans. Not the **** Grayson show. Please stop showing **** Grayson so much. Please
