  • Gmo_Pistolero Guillermo Carnegie (@Gmo_Pistolero) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have a Roku and every since I downloaded the app over a month ago, it app crashes, it fails to start movies, we watch 2 minutes of a movie and then it crashes and goes back to the main Roku screen. Its extremely slow. No problems with Netflix, Hulu, or anything else

  • Pakistanisenpai Pakistani Senpai 🇵🇰 (@Pakistanisenpai) reported

    @fembrucewayne @DCTitans @hbomax I felt like the performances felt soulless because of the material they had to work with. Also, I agree on the directors' part, the desaturated blue filter is so annoying and the camera cuts are so weird

  • ayden_murph Ayden All Along (@ayden_murph) reported

    @PopCrave @hbomax Using a picture of Tisci I KNOW THATS RIGHT! Maybe they can fix their judging

  • duazolanski steezy | flop era (@duazolanski) reported

    @REMPL4NET @PopCrave @hbomax Help 😭😭

  • topha333 Chris (@topha333) reported

    Im not sure if Im the only one who has run into problems using @HboMax lately, or if other have had problems also. I’ve been using a PS4 to watch and the service keeps freezing, loading so slowly that I’ve stopped watching many times, Rew/FF options have been unusable, etc. #FIX

  • fueljony Jon Sanchez (@fueljony) reported

    Please help @hbomax, my account was hacked 😭 and the help section on your website is worthless

  • DaniK094 Danielle Kolesar (@DaniK094) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Continuing to have issues fast forwarding and rewinding on several different types of devices. Please get this fixed. It's been going on for a couple weeks now.

  • plughacker01 plughacker01 (@plughacker01) reported

    @alexisthom33 @HBOMaxHelp Send me a private message let me help you and retrieve your account now

  • whoelsenose2 GoldenGuy (@whoelsenose2) reported

    @hbomax Can you fix the playback controls on Google tv? When I near the end of an episode, I can't fast forward or jump to next episode. It's been like this for several days.

  • sidetrcked cake (@sidetrcked) reported

    @DCTitans @hbomax bestie i am crying help me

  • johnnybilo PotomacProgressive (@johnnybilo) reported

    I don't know why @hbomax is going all in with #Friends. It is an awful show--ignorant and not representative of NYC. There are so many brilliant shows on there that deserve the promotion--like #HacksOnHBOMax--and I got to see ad after ad after ad for that utter crap?

  • RandPatrick Randy Patrick (@RandPatrick) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah sounds like work for me troubleshooting your app with little if any reward. I’ll probably just let the subscription lapse til I hear you’ve fixed the mess.

  • greenman868 richard greenman (@greenman868) reported

    When will @hbomax fix this bloody crash error?

  • nicebitchg 💁🏾‍♀️👵🏾 (@nicebitchg) reported

    @hbomax y’all need to get some help it’s crashing on my phone & tv 😟 like all week and it’s not the WiFi or phone service lol

  • indiaiuyaniaa India (@indiaiuyaniaa) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp take some of that budget you use to buy everybody’s content and fix your *** *** app. this **** crashes every 5 minutes and the subtitles don’t work ever

  • pull_mybeard Ghost of Thanksgiving (@pull_mybeard) reported

    It would be cool if the @hbomax app worked more than it didn’t work.

  • danidoll7 daddy dani (@danidoll7) reported

    .@hbomax i’m literally begging you to hire me to fix your captions. please.

  • CarynAngelique Caryn Angelique (@CarynAngelique) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp FYI: I tried again this morning, and signed up with no problems. Someone must have fixed the page, because I didn't do anything on my side.

  • jakeluvbot amaraෆ (@jakeluvbot) reported

    why doesn't your app work i want my money back @hbomax

  • Carnitoe Carnage (@Carnitoe) reported

    @hbomax yall have the absolute worst port on the ps4, it’s so buggy and laggy. sometimes it can take 30 seconds to even let you pause or rewind.

  • JessexDCFB JxGxE 🦇🦇🦇🦅✈️🦸‍♂️ #BBZ #BatfleckMovie (@JessexDCFB) reported

    @DCTitans @hbomax Anyway, that looks ******* terrible. How about #RestoreTheSnyderVerse

  • MajinTRose White Wolf🤜🏼❇️ (@MajinTRose) reported

    @hbomax y’all gotta fix that red hood helmet for Season 3 of Titans.

  • xtotalwildcard vanny ⊬ (@xtotalwildcard) reported

    @DCTitans @nthmetal_ @hbomax HELP I PREDICTED IT

  • EntStrategyGuy The Entertainment Strategy Guy (@EntStrategyGuy) reported

    @emilygroch @hbomax @streamtv_show But you know what? Sometimes AI just doesn't work on it. Take Disney+. Their episodes are out of order on some older shows. That's something only a person can figure out.

  • JosephFanai10 Joseph Fanai (@JosephFanai10) reported

    @TheConjuring @hbomax What a disappointing movie. Started out great and after that it’s just some detective movie, void of scares and horror thrills. The decision to use an Ocultist didn’t work well as using The Nun in the second film. Plus, so many deleted scenes. I hope 4 will have James back.

  • emilygroch Emily (@emilygroch) reported

    @EntStrategyGuy @hbomax @streamtv_show Completely agree. I think it's amazing that they are doing it this way. Certainly upholds the "premium" quality people expect of HBO. But it must be expensive to execute.

  • indiaiuyaniaa India (@indiaiuyaniaa) reported

    @hbomax take some of that budget you use to buy everybody’s content and fix your *** *** app. this **** crashes every 5 minutes and the subtitles don’t work ever

  • Nicole67928 Nicole (@Nicole67928) reported

    @fueljony @hbomax In my honest opinion, I think there's a good chance of recovery, I suggest you reach out to @logskind on Instagram they helped me recover my account which was hacked a year ago, So that's pretty much the only viable option you've got amongst he can help you

    @DoctorTayC @DCTitans @hbomax No one cares ab the worst character

  • bluntburnz ❤️‍🔥 (@bluntburnz) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp y’all need to fix y’all’s servers or something because this consistent crashing is not it!
