does anyone else have major problems with their @hbomax just pausing in the middle of shows and won’t resume unless you completely restart the app????

@hbomax why must I sign in everyday when I open your app? Frustrating! 😒

Matt Di Micelli (@micelli_di) reported
@hbomax click into it, and then finally select the right episode.... way too much work and time wasted! Also, what is the "plus sign" button on all the pages? There's absolutely no indication as to what it does. Some explanation is needed.

@hbomax @HBO Even though it supposedly premiered on 1/16, it does not seem to be available to stream yet. (?!) Is that problem just with the hulu version? I am so looking forward to seeing it.

@DCComics @DCpeacemaker @hbomax Sound went out on the HBO app for XBox. Headphones work but the app is broken.

@hbomax Mare of Easttown is. The worst show you people have created. Do not renew it...or get a better screenplay writer. Season one is trash.

Hi there @hbomax , is it very complex to add a trailer button? Its a bit tedious to have to go to @YouTube for that. Not that i have anything against YouTube but i thought since the films/series are on your service it could not be that hard to fix a trailer button.

@HBOMaxHelp Sent a series of detailed DMs about how a) your app is definitely broken b) other apps aren't, and c) wtf did you even do to break this, like, you must be doing some serious hackery in your app code to break the default audio device on Android. It's called default for a reason!

I’ve been trying to be nice but @hbomax is a very challenging service. That’s being kind. The worst part is that they continue to blame my T1 internet service as the problem. Come on. Do better.

Dan (@mackid1122) reported
@HBOMaxHelp Why doesn't Bluetooth audio work on your Android TV app? (Nvidia Shield) Works perfectly in literally every other app but HBO Max ignores Bluetooth audio and routes it via HDMI. Please fix it, you're doing non-standard stuff in your app code that must be breaking it.

How did I not know that #TheLongHalloween was on @hbomax?!? Finally a way to get a bit of a @JensenAckles fix.

HBO Max is actually the worst subscription service known to man and I will die on this hill @hbomax @HBO delete yourself ugly

Ben Lee (@blee412) reported
Hey @hbomax TOTALLY willing to concede user error here. But after S1, E2 on #Fringe, the app jumps to the end of E3, starts the next ep and jumps to the end, and on and on. Currently in E9 of this cycle. Thoughts?

Oh - and - this is a known bug. There are reddit forums about it. There are published articles about it. But somehow the problem from @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp is always - "have you run an update. . ." blah blah blah. . .

@HBOMaxHelp Morning! Somebody recently opened an account and subscribed to HBO max using my email address. They then managed to verify the subscription, which is scary. Would you be able to help with getting this account shut down/bringing this rogue to justice? Thanks! Kerri

@HBOMaxHelp we can't get movies to play on the PS4 app. Is there an outage? For some reason though, Peacemaker will play...

Younes (@Yunus_El_Habibi) reported
Is there any way for me to get @hbomax with a discount as an existing subscriber? My next billing is on January 28th, but that's already too late. Even if I cancelled it right now, I would still not be able to get HBO Max with a discount right? And do the discounts work with...

It has come to our attention that @hbomax and @disneyplus are refusing to release physical dvds of their shows. This is a serious problem. I urge everyone to completely stop using their services ASAP. They have no right to to keep their fans from owning physical media.

So - I've been on the phone with @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp many times about this issue and they won't fix it - so welcome to a thread about what I have to do several times a week just to watch HBO Max (a service I have active account for). 1. Leave Movie or Show I can't watch.

@HBOMaxHelp Windows 10 PC via Chrome to a Chromecast-enabled Vizio TV. The timeout is too short, seems like 10 minutes. Keep the desktop alive for longer, and the phone too. I play/pause right before I step away to minimize the trouble.

Haley Courtney (@hellomisshaley) reported
@HBOMaxHelp @geeez_louise No error code, the show either just cuts out mid-episode & my tv restarts (i’ve done all available troubleshooting), or the video will just freeze & the audio will keep going & i can’t pause/adjust, or i can’t restart after pausing without the app shutting down. Using a Roku tv.
