  • RickOber50 Rick Ober (@RickOber50) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @LeahsArchive Still Crashing on my Fire TV. Closing and restarting has not helped. Other HBO shows work fine.

  • brownsugga305 brownsugah305 (@brownsugga305) reported

    @SSStubbSSS @HouseofDragon @hbomax Yes they were. You have zero proof that they weren't they were even nobility. Read a book it will help you.

  • gerratdaen grt (@gerratdaen) reported

    @NoBullSHIB @hbomax It’s both about the episode and about the popularity of it causing it to crash, actually a clever tweet by some unpaid HBO social media intern

  • silence_legion Silence Legion Podcast (@silence_legion) reported

    @hbomax and @HouseofDragon yall have been crashing my app since the premier. I still havent seen it. The only thing I cant watch is Dragon. Everything else plays. Please fix it? damn… what a let down. Ive tried at least 22 times since yesterday. Nothing.

  • deardrewdixon Drew Dixon (@deardrewdixon) reported

    Hi @HBOMaxHelp I’ve tried everything to troubleshoot the buffering on my @hbomax account so I can watch #HouseOfTheDragonHBO before the 24hr mute on a bunch of #GameOfThrones keywords expires on my Twitter TL. But no luck. Can you help me out before I get hit with a spoiler? Thx.

  • Voldsgaard Claus D. Voldsgaard (@Voldsgaard) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Can't stream house of dragon on tcl android TV please help

  • wlcm2chandyland 🌻Bludclaaat 🇯🇲 (@wlcm2chandyland) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Nobody is doing all THAT to make a streaming service I pay $16/mo for work. I should turn it on and it works And someone told you to type this as a public response 🙄

  • CassieSometimes Princess of Nothing (@CassieSometimes) reported

    @hbomax I've been trying to watch House of the Dragon since last night, but every time I start it, the entire app crashes. I can watch anything else with no issues. Is this going to be fixed soon??

  • MiikoHouse 𝕄 𝕚 𝕚 𝕜 𝕠 (@MiikoHouse) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It works on every other device (iOS devices) but not on the tv where the stick is used. Is this an ongoing issue that has a trouble ticket assigned?

  • Petty_Kane Zeke Cross’ Shocked Face (@Petty_Kane) reported

    @hbomax what is the fix for this GOT crash because I’m getting pissed atp

  • intvnyr Cyndi Keohane (@intvnyr) reported

    @HouseofDragon @hbomax This was not nearly as good as I expected. I'll watch one more episode looking for more of a GOT type of quality. If it's not there, I'll pass.

  • ShawneMumford Shawne Mumford (@ShawneMumford) reported

    @hbomax so y’all really not going to fix the @HouseofDragon crashing issue?

  • ToSirWithNoLove Southside Jim (@ToSirWithNoLove) reported

    @deardrewdixon @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax See a lot of ppl w/ this issue. Wild that it hasn't been corrected yet.

  • BrandyWoodruff0 Brandy Woodruff (@BrandyWoodruff0) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Have you fixed the HBO max issues on Amazon and fire stick to be able to watch house of the dragon?

  • twetBrynRoebuck Bryn Roebuck (@twetBrynRoebuck) reported

    @HBO @hbomax Yo @HBO get your app and tech to work, spend less than 100 million$'s on ad campaigns & give me my $15 worth that I pay/mo decent content or not! I was a GOT fan from the 1st episode, & other ppl had no idea what it was

  • MiikoHouse 𝕄 𝕚 𝕚 𝕜 𝕠 (@MiikoHouse) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp why is the app crashing every time i try to watch the series premiere of HoD on my FireStick??? I thought it was a server issue with a flood of traffic but it still isn’t working 😡😡😤😤

  • koranagy Kora Cee (@koranagy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp My friends and I are hoping since demand crashed the servers maybe HBO will renew for Season2!?!?! We are going to try to stream it tonight again.

  • GMoneyGonz Guillermo Gonzalez (@GMoneyGonz) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Every time I try to play the House of the Dragon show, it fades to black for a second and then returns to the title screen. Other shows work fine. I'm on an Xbox One.

  • AnnaKagarakis Anna Kagarakis (@AnnaKagarakis) reported

    @Carly_Shay07 @hbomax Found out, that if you watch with closed captioning (which we do) it can cause the crash. So, turn off the captions let the show start running and THEN turn captions back on. Once we did that we got to watch. Let me tell you…straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Loved it!

  • Douglas17063685 Douglas Myers (@Douglas17063685) reported

    @HBO @hbomax How about you fix your streaming and stop jerking your customers around .

  • HaydenSims2012 Hayden Sims (@HaydenSims2012) reported

    @hbomax am I going to be able to watch HOTD tonight or is it still going to crash?
