Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Will Rowley (@1WillRowley) reported@hbomax Europa League Final video is lagging (slow and jumpy). I signed up to watch the @UEFA finals. Succession video is not lagging. Please fix or put CL final on YouTube where it should be.
-
TopDawgBets (@TopDawgBets) reported@hbomax fix the Tiafoe match NOW!!
-
brooke byrne (@brooke_byrne) reported@NotKateByrne I was going to mention @hulu directly but then I realized @hbomax does it too. I’m hoping by tagging them they see their errors. Hulu also has to stop playing whatever they feel like when you fall asleep to something and it ends, but one battle at a time
-
Jabagowicz (@jabagowicz1) reported@balhararyahooc2 @HBO @hbomax Hi, I work for HBO specifically in the audio dubbing department in sector's 6/7 and your request has been disrespectfully denied, kindly go **** yourself!!!
-
Erica DiWren (@EricaDiwren) reported@LiveLaughLDP @LouDPhillips @hbomax 🤭 We Moms ! I am digging for a deeper plot and thinking "what am i missing here?", when the 'plot' is the characters and weirdness right in front of me.! Had the same problem with ERIC IDLE when everyone else was laughing at Monte Python! Weird, twisted, was NORMAL to my fam?
-
Zack (@_____1776_____) reported@hbomax Comic movie fatigue isn’t real. Terrible movie/show fatigue is what it is. Zero chance this will solve that problem. What a joke
-
$coli (@twiypod) reported@_cryptoHOV @hbomax Jerry west had a huge issue with it especially season 1. It’s a shame they got in the way of greatness. I was looking forward to the transition to the announcement and then the Kobe and Shaq era. Easily coulda went 5 or 6 seasons
-
⚜️Crimson Jester©™⚜️ (@OGCrimsonJester) reported@MrSockPuppet @StephenKing @hbomax I'm watching it now, and it's pacing is off. The story bounces around a lot. The acting, stars Thomas Jane, Jason Lee, Damian Lewis, Timothy Olyphant, Morgan Freeman, Tom Sizemore, and Donnie Wahlberg improve the quality of the script and direction to acceptable.
-
Zoe Sanderson (@zippyzee) reported@TNTSportsUS The @hbomax steam is terrible. It freezes at every commercial break and the stream is often behind the live action. Better to watch on @hulu !
-
NueNuee🎙💓✨ (@NuechieBradshaw) reported@hbomax fix that ******* lagging before I cancel this **** like nino!
-
PAPA SHANN (@PAPASHANN_) reported@hbomax will yall fix yall glitchy *** app man can’t even watch the game
-
Tyler (@tylermcg97) reported@NASCAR @hbomax the spotter audio for the 24 car William Byron is not working, please get this fixed
-
Kristal Marien (@deBATjes) reported@hbomaxhelp Thanks for your answer @hbomaxhelp ! I had a chat this afternoon with your helpdesk and it is solved . I'm in France but it seems I'm not the only one who's having problems . I'll let you know if the problem occurs again .
-
⛈️Dakota🌪 (@CSXK921) reported@hbomax Not a huge issue but the live in-car camera for Josh Berry does not have josh or spotter audio. I did refresh to no avail. Hope no other cars are having the same issue.
-
Heywood Jablohmi (@Un4goten_Syn) reported@hbomax @HBO Choices for Vernon and Petunia are questionable considering that Vernon isn't a large beefy man and Petunia looks like a goddamn serial killer. There's other issues but I'll leave it there today.
-
Thrawn (@thrawnftw) reported@BaldSuperman309 @JamesGunn @hbomax The suit looks terrible. I'm not going to pretend that it doesn't like you guys do.
-
Anna-Lena (@AnnaLenaSthl1) reported@horizontalviews @hbomax I love tennis too but it’s unwatchable now 💔 This is the worst tennis viewing experience I’ve ever had. During one match today there were seven ad breaks in just an hour. In tennis. A sport built around rhythm, tension and momentum. I ended my subscription.

Uno | Bookers sugar papi 𓆩♡𓆪 (@uhavefckinguno) reported@hbomax why are you always down bro? I pay YOU to work FOR ME
-
Erik Lamoureux (@heisenberg187) reported@hbomaxhelp My email is irrelevant to a problem that everybody who purchased this on your platform last night is having...
-
Jay (@AvengerUpsilon) reported@hbomax Looks ******* awful.
-
Gene Stoker (@GeneStoker) reportedOne more episode of #Euphoria on @hbomax and it's over!! This season is just awful to watch. I give it... 👎👎👎👎👎
-
Steely Liz (@TotesLiz) reported@dph_stfu @giroditalia @hbomax why do we have these commentators this year? This sucks. I could just get this terrible coverage from FloBikes and cancel my hbo max subscription if we’re not getting the “real” English commentary team
-
Rob Mac (@RobMcCraw) reported@AEW @hbomax Let this show be 8 hrs long. Finally I don’t have to work the morning after a PPV!!!
-
Oh Silly, it’s Lilly (@Lilly_88sc) reported@DiscoveryID @hbomax Great work platforming this YouTuber whose channel was demonetized in November 2025 for making F33rism / ED content. That’s awfully close to the time frame wherein your team thought she would be a good asset to this documentary. Not to mention the very bad skeletons in her closet engaging in s3xual conversations with minors on the internet. Verified original documentation for the above mentioned.
-
Sofia (@willowmillenniu) reported@NASCAR Still no radio for Austin Cindric on the NASCAR app and @hbomax in-car. Looping @timclark3 because don't know who else to reach out to since this has been an issue since yesterday's practice.
-
blue (@theblueautumn) reported@hbomax Fix your ******* stream. Horrible
-
Jon Beadle (@jonbeadle135) reported@hbomax since taking over sport from discovery + your app does not work on my iPad. It’s not particularly old but can only use iOS 15.8.7. Is there a work round so I can get what I’ve paid for?
-
legalrealist (Bluesky: legalrealist.bsky.social) (@legalrealist) reported@ninakokino98 @hbomax So it’s not a story inconsistency / failure issue if she’s just off whatever day they show next. And if they aren’t inspired to have a big plot with her character, i think it’s probably a good thing that they won’t just have the actress standing around in the background!
-
AZGirl (@k2m_10210) reported@hgtv @hbomax I don’t understand why every single backyard’s artificial turf looks like absolute crap. You see all of the turf lines, seams, its side effect lumpy and bumpy. I live in AZ where artificial turf is everywhere. Never seen install that look as terrible that’s on this show.
-
Layzee Texican (@HellaLayzee) reported@Jennife9412 @DiscoveryID @hbomax NO she doesn't and that's a big ******* problem in my book.
