HBO Max Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • scottwichmann Scott Wichmann (@scottwichmann) reported

    @hbomax look into fixing your content delivery system. The streaming service is plagued by constant buffering issues & glitches making it virtually unwatchable. Lots of artists worked very hard to create your content; you owe it to them to deliver it seamlessly to their audience.

  • repmekevets steve kemper (@repmekevets) reported

    @hbomax what’s going on with your apple tv app? it freezes every time i leave & come back to it & the only way to fix is is the restart the whole device.

  • nick_vito Nick Vito (@nick_vito) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp what is your apps problem 😡😡😡 WHY IS THIS CONSTANTLY BUFFERING ?!? i have 1000 gig speed internet and i am hard wired...

  • superman_fanp DC Ultimate News #RestoreTheSnyderVerse (@superman_fanp) reported

    If all these movies on @hbomax are doing better than the #SnyderCut how did HBO Max only crash for the release of ZSJL and not for GvK or MK??? #RestoreTheSnyderVerse

  • majshark Herr Ruschmann (@majshark) reported

    Dear @hbomax: Your movie selection doesn't matter if fix your streaming service is broken. The stream auto zooms to the upper left portion of the screen, making your content unwatchable.

  • xingcat xingcat (@xingcat) reported

    I can't believe @hbomax looked at Bethenny Frankel saying things like, "They keep asking me for input, but I need them to figure it out," when she is IN THE ROOM and is saying SHE IS A MODEL and gave them no time? NOBODY WANTS TO WORK WITH THIS TYPE OF BOSS.

  • JafetSerratoTV Jafet Serrato (@JafetSerratoTV) reported

    Hey @hbomax you probably have one of the worst rewind buttons out of all the streaming platforms, can you please fix it please? Thank you 🙏🏼 📺

  • mizmargauxxx margaux verdera (@mizmargauxxx) reported

    @AJemaineClement @TheCW @hbomax July?!? Jfc man. Don’t you know we’re still in a pandemic and need this quality entertainment??

  • mojomanxero Mojomanxero (@mojomanxero) reported

    @NeKap @hbomax Dang I been having problems too

  • BooRadl88323085 Boo Radical (@BooRadl88323085) reported

    @XavierCollinNZ @HBOMaxHelp Same issue here.

  • bgappl07 bgappl07 (@bgappl07) reported

    @hbomax I’ve had the service for forever now having problems receiving it I am I the only one??

  • CarenThacker Caren Thacker (@CarenThacker) reported

    @HBO @hbomax why isn’t the HBO doc The Crash Reel available to watch through HBO...?

  • italia166 Megan... (@italia166) reported

    @hbomax The app is not working...

  • navit_keren navit keren (@navit_keren) reported

    @hbomax what on earth is going on?! Your quality content is consistently marred by your consistently miserable streaming service.

  • SoundGuyRicky reba laufeyson 🖤 (@SoundGuyRicky) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp The app on PS4 and it’s only for that one episode, I skipped it & the following two episodes work fine.

  • theBeerkid69 Hunter the Beerkid™ (@theBeerkid69) reported

    Hey @hbomax, I love y'all so I say this with nothing but the best intentions: your PS4 app is awful. Truly, truly awful. Please advise.

  • JimmyRager Jimmy Eats (@JimmyRager) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp nothing is working on HBO Max. Is there an issue

  • V_Rheault Vania Margene Rheault (@V_Rheault) reported

    I wish I could write a series like Mare of Easttown on @hbomax. What I know of police work I learned from watching all the seasons of @Castle_ABC and a criminology class I took at the community college in 1994. I don't think any of that will fly. LOL

  • jamiemariemccar Jamie. (@jamiemariemccar) reported

    @hbomax has the worst app I’ve ever used. Can’t load shows, multiple crashes, etc. What a waste of money.

  • ABHIJIT86556487 ABHIJIT (@ABHIJIT86556487) reported

    @hbomax @RosannaPansino @CakesByTimbo The cake is amazing. Come on people, I am also a Snyderverse fan but posting #RestoreTheSndyerVerse on unrelated posts does not help the cause. So chill.

  • jmill26_ ✨Blue Nails for the Buss Down✨ (@jmill26_) reported

    FIX YOUR HO *** APP. @hbomax

  • austinburns225 Arst (@austinburns225) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I keep trying to stream to my chrome cast and I keep getting error code 420. This has been an ongoing issue for weeks and I’m getting tired of it

  • zd00m z🕷 (@zd00m) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I've done all of that in past instances of this issue and it doesn't help. It is long recurring and a bit too often to be sporadic. It happened a lot during Godzilla vs Kong too. I'm sorry but I only get this kind of issue from max, I don't have buffer issues with other services.

  • ice_styl3ee young celtic (@ice_styl3ee) reported

    @hbomax fix that grey line bullshit

  • ga_nj_2012 Hutch (@ga_nj_2012) reported

    Does anyone have issues with volume on @hbomax? I can’t seem to boost the volume enough to hear Tenet.

  • bcrogs Bobby (@bcrogs) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @hbomax @iamjohnoliver is not new tonight. Fix your ******* system. And @billmaher was not new the other night either. Although your title headline says so. Fix it.

  • r8terfan99 Jesse Martinez (@r8terfan99) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp What’s going on with HBO max on Apple TV. not working

  • frazerrice Frazer Rice (@frazerrice) reported

    Yo, @hbomax it would be nice if we could watch #MareOfEasttown, but, alas, your service doesn't work . . . again. #hbomax #Fail

  • 305Bass ѴศʆཛѴЄཞgศ (@305Bass) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Ok great. All your movies have low sound quality or sounds un mixed or unmastered. Literally have to double the sound output to hear a movie on the app via Samsung Tv. Will y’all be adding Fast Forward or Rewind ?

  • 305Bass ѴศʆཛѴЄཞgศ (@305Bass) reported

    Is there an update yet for the sound problems ?! @hbomax ohh and the white bar to the right of the screen?
