    @aaronrift @hbomax Didn’t work for me either I had to just order it through cable and now I have to try and get a refund

    How to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand HBO Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

    I hade to request a refund from @Apple for the **** show that is @hbomax showing #AEWRevolution just bought it on YouTube and it’s working beautifully there. @hbomaxhelp get it together and hopefully Apple approves the refund because of how terrible the experience was on your app

    @ethankoo22 @hbomax understandable, but since it looks like her condition is deteriorating it could potentially affect her ability to be an attending. a 10 sec absence seizure when you have someone's life in your hands is a huge problem.

    @the1bar23 @hbomaxhelp Did you get this fixed? I was just about to buy it but stopped just to see if anyone was having issues

    katie Henderson (@katiehe201587) reported

    @hbomaxhelp Been in an email loop with support doing the same troubleshooting steps repeatedly. Issue: Friends degrades in picture quality after ~15-20 min, every time, only that show. App updated, reinstalled, TV restarted — multiple times. Need actual escalation.

  • JayBeasta
    JB (@JayBeasta) reported

    The HBO Max feed of AEW Revolution continues to have audio syncing issues nearly 45 minutes in, after Zero Hour was completely inaccessible. Meanwhile, Tony Khan has muted the replies to his live tweets... #AEWRevolution @hbomaxhelp

    @hbomax you know this isn’t going to work right??? Why do you guys feel the need to do this to beloved characters for? #BlackSnape

    @hbomaxhelp I can barely stream anything and watch it. Keep having to stop and start because the audio is not in sync with the video. Please fix this issue.

    @AewMarksman @hbomax I’m having the same issue, please message me if you figure out a solution

    @hbomax @StreamOnMax Keep going with the woke BULLSHIT on The Pitt, and you’ll lose this viewer and the REST of our ED. Ridiculous. You have a solid, medically accurate (to a point) show, but yet EVERY week, some woke **** slips its way in the episode. This week? ICE And let me inform you if this- Not ONE of us working in a busy ED care if people are LEAVING the EMERGENCY WAITING ROOM for their NON EMERGENCY ISSUES. Jerkoffs.

    @hbomax @DCOfficial We realy hope you fix this mess! We dont want the DCU hal jordan to be a brown old cop instead of a cool green lantern suits up some costume like the new 52... What ever is the idea, do it right! Not like this old ugly stuff !

    @hbomaxhelp I’m watching it on a laptop on my bed instead of the tv like normal I also missed the first 25 minutes as well, I’m just annoyed I have to jump threw hoops to get something i paid for to work properly

  • spinningoutaday
    Mr Danny (@spinningoutaday) reported

    @andyjd747 @hbomax It’s effectively a downgrade. We had UHD and Ad Skip on our Stream package but now shows we previously could watch are only on HBO Max in awful quality with ads.

    @patrizated @SeanRossSapp @hbomax You must be one of the lucky ones all I’m getting on my android tv is a loading symbol and on my Amazon fire cube 30 seconds behind on audio looks like I’m putting up with the audio issue

  • darthlord70160
    Darthlord (@darthlord70160) reported

    @SeanRossSapp That’s false because I just tried it on my television and same issue! It’s just an @HBOMAX issue
