  • SionisSawyer Jacob Sawyer (@SionisSawyer) reported

    @JamesGunn @hbomax @DCpeacemaker Do you know how it will be streamed or shown in the UK, worst part about not having HBO Max is trying to track down where everything ends up

  • davispr Kelly Davis (@davispr) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I accidentally mistyped my own email address while signing up for an account and can’t figure out how to change it. Help?

  • Vote2022_ Rob 🇺🇸 (@Vote2022_) reported

    @hbomax HBO has the worst app layout, just shows the name of the title and no description. When I hover over a title, tell me what the damn movie or show is about.. Just like Netflix does and maybe give me a quick preview. @hbomax @HBO

  • _LILZ215 Trustnonebuthebagひ💰 (@_LILZ215) reported

    @hbomax Fix your app.

  • njxguerrero0805 James Guerrero (@njxguerrero0805) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Ok, just sent the most recent error message

  • pmendir pmendir (@pmendir) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Everything is up to date. It’s not my network, this would most likely be an app issue. Did you try to reproduce it?

  • bacardiego_ ꧁ ༒ diego ༒꧂ (@bacardiego_) reported

    @hbomax fix ur platform pls this is getting annoying

  • corey777steward Corey in the House (@corey777steward) reported

    @hbomax how about y’all fix the crashing that happens so very often?

  • JamiesonBSantos Jamieson (@JamiesonBSantos) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @HBOMaxSuporte No thanks. You cannot make a simple and functional app, how can you help me with something so specific? I doubt it.

  • DexterCalvin817 Mark (@DexterCalvin817) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp fix the app! You can see all over Twitter that your app is the problem. I’ve re-downloaded it and it still sucks. Constantly just spinning. What will it take for you to fix it?!?!

  • GiveWitness Dave Oh! (@GiveWitness) reported

    Anyone else having a really crappy experience with @hbomax streaming? Like constant errors and stalls. Can’t get through a 22 minute episode of anything without it stopping over and over again.

  • Mrzwhite13 White (@Mrzwhite13) reported

    @hbomax She caused hbomax app to crash on finale!!

  • magdalenepop (@magdalenepop) reported

    @hbomax succession so terrible please cancel it

  • GizmatoMo jnell 🐨 (@GizmatoMo) reported

    @hbomax Someone please help me turn off the audio descriptions on my Roku 4! I never turned them on, but I’m finding it impossible to shut them off! 😫

  • EdwardjLiu EDWARD JOSEPH LIU (@EdwardjLiu) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, On my first day of work, I took a nap during a lunch time. When I woke up, the manager saw me. Where have you been? We've been looking for you. I said, oh, sorry let me go back to work. He said, you should go home first, you slept for more than 24 hour. 🥺

  • i69grzzlybears i69GrzzlyBears (@i69grzzlybears) reported

    @hbomax ok soooo when are you guys gonna fix this absolutely dogshit UI? I can't even get through a movie without seeing. "Oops! Something went wrong." Ita about time this was fixed and customers were able to sit and watch the paid subscription without being forced to restart

  • OuijaBored__ Jake (@OuijaBored__) reported

    @hbomax your ps5 app is TRASH keeps closing and saying “oops something went wrong” every 25 minutes or so. Fix your product

  • TerriLou1978 Terri (@TerriLou1978) reported

    @Supermansings @hbomax I watched it the other day and it was time I can never get back. Awful.

  • LilahJagger Lilah Jagger (@LilahJagger) reported

    @analeyesr Same with @AppleTV and @hbomax and my internet is just fine. Disney+ and Netflix has no issues. Takes me 3 hrs to watch 1 episode of See or Titans. Going to cancel them both.

  • DexterCalvin817 Mark (@DexterCalvin817) reported

    @hbomax Your app is horrible. I just subscribed and I’ve re-downloaded your app to my television and it’s constantly spinning and spinning. It’s not the tv, it’s less than a year old. And the other apps including Netflix and Amazon work fine. When is a fix coming?

  • corey777steward Corey in the House (@corey777steward) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m sorry for the rudeness. But it’s a roku. It’s been up to date, and I even uninstalled and reinstalled The app and it keeps crashing. My internet is fine and other devices have the same problem.

  • njxguerrero0805 James Guerrero (@njxguerrero0805) reported

    @hbomax If only this App didn't give so many errors... especially on the PS5... consistently gives error messages that makes a person exit out of a show or movie in order to continue

  • frankssiiee frankie 🍄🌷 (@frankssiiee) reported

    @hbomax you have a lot of bugs i can’t watch a movie without it messing up i’m gonna have a crap attack PLEASE FIX YOUR BUGS

  • KalinaRivers kalina (@KalinaRivers) reported

    Why does @hbomax suck SO badly? Every 10-15 minutes the “title can’t play” error pops up. Many threads on this for over a year. No fix. Don’t get HBO max.

  • njxguerrero0805 James Guerrero (@njxguerrero0805) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yes, tried all steps, works on tablet, phone, & through Xfinity but the issues have been through the PS5...deleted & reinstalled a couple of times... all my other streaming apps work on PS5 except this one...the error message pops up on screen, blocks movie/show

  • kekatron E R I K A (@kekatron) reported

    Dear @hbomax (well, in Asia, it's still HBO Go), fix the damn UI!!!!! It's not appealing at all and response is sloooooowwwwwww. You have nice shows but we can't see it because it's like navigating to a pirated stream site.

  • failurebydesig3 failurebydesign93 (@failurebydesig3) reported

    @hbomax Unless you’re using the app on PlayStation and then all you get is constant crashes because the app is absolute trash. Save the bull **** call center generic help response and fix your app because this is clown shoes from a company as big as hbo.

  • GestaltOfRick Rick Borutta (@GestaltOfRick) reported

    You simply don't get it, @hbomax, @HBOMaxHelp - all the extra keystrokes to re-login every day make your video player the worst of every video player on the internet. Plus, having to re-navigate to current episodes because the player doesn't track.

  • Maury_Brovich Maury Brovich (@Maury_Brovich) reported

    @hbomax if you want your app to never work right and stop loading the show as you're watching it every fking time, this is the app for you!!

  • sshadow_oasiss Chan. (@sshadow_oasiss) reported

    @ComicTyPhoon @hbomax I’m still having these issues can’t finish any movie
