Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • gspence1 Greg Spencer (@gspence1) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @nancycorreag_ I've often found the only way to fix problems on HBOMax is to delete the app and reinstall it.

  • MikeDunckley Mike Dunckley (@MikeDunckley) reported

    @tee_wit @HBOMaxHelp You’re not alone…I’m having similar issues. Just a black screen.

  • ItsMeAdamC Adam Calhoun (@ItsMeAdamC) reported

    @hbomax App is broken on Roku. Goto load anything it kicks you back out to the menu.

  • thenickfanclub The Nickelodeon Fan Club of Lights (@thenickfanclub) reported

    @squarestanley @hbomax Like, I used to believe that the captioning carried directly over from previous home media releases, but no, this is the same problem across all of them, and that’s too much a spread for all three sets to have the same problem

  • notcxrmo #real (@notcxrmo) reported

    but deadass , @hbomax fix that ****

  • FleetingShadow Simon Cooke (@FleetingShadow) reported

    The Matrix Resurrections on @hbomax is streaming using frame blending at 60fps, not native 24fps, even when running the app on devices with framerate switching and 24fps enabled. HBO can you fix this? Please? It's a problem when streaming your movies on most new TVs.

  • SumitGup Sumit Gupta (@SumitGup) reported

    @Krewell @TheMatrixMovie @hbomax It is awful no matter where you watch it

  • jennettefulda Jennette Fulda (@jennettefulda) reported

    Hey @HBOMaxHelp I have a Roku and can't watch The Matrix. Other HBO videos play, but The Matrix gives me the loading dots and then goes back home. Tried restarting Roku. Didn't work. Gave up and watched it on my iPad and don't care anymore, but thought you should know.

  • nana2zeke Nana (@nana2zeke) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Roku, no error messages, just won’t play…seems to be a problem for many on many different types of devices. I don’t need to fix anything on my end 🙄

  • ChristinePThoma THEE 26.2 Miler (@ChristinePThoma) reported

    @hbomax Just terrible honestly #cursedreboot

  • SickJay84 Jason (@SickJay84) reported

    @pblackmoe @hbomax Yeah, it played immediately on my PS4 with no problems.

  • MyStory_RETOLD leahhhh 🌺 (@MyStory_RETOLD) reported

    @hbomax FIX THE ****** APP DAWG!

  • JamesKelseyART James Kelsey (@JamesKelseyART) reported

    @hulu_support Why am I paying @hulu_support for @HBOMaxHelp if I can't watch HBO Max on Hulu? This sounds like 2 huge corporations ******* over the people who are actually paying them money. Hulu is saying HBOmax problem & HBOmax says Hulu problem and all I know is I am paying you both money

  • _JHokanson Justin Hokanson (@_JHokanson) reported

    @hbomax your streaming service is one of the worst. The amount of times the stream is choppy and won’t play is amazing. We just got cut off in the middle of a movie with “title not available” after suffering through buffering during the stream.

  • tboger1 Tessa (@tboger1) reported

    @Colts @hbomax Colts! Please help if you can. We can’t find a JT jersey anywhere. My little boy is convinced Santa’s elves can make him one if he can’t find one. His heart will be broken! Any leads? 🥺

  • SickJay84 Jason (@SickJay84) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah, I've tried to play it multiple times on my phone and a message kept popping up saying it was unable to play video and to try back later. But it plays the movie immediately on my PS4 with no problems whatsoever.

  • immen5 I man matty (@immen5) reported

    @hbomax considered not renewing with you guys..but couldn't stand the thought of no Curb! Renewed and your service is down prob cause of the Matrix sequel! Shortest renew you'll ever see. You just fixed all your problems with this app and streaming. Prob never hear from you.

  • mattecook Matt Cook (@mattecook) reported

    @hbomax HBOMG plz get enough servers for when you launch big titles. App performance is a dumpster fire right now.

  • Dunnam0127 Joseph Dunnam (@Dunnam0127) reported

    @hbomax I have had a problem with your updated version.

  • BrandonEffDub Brandon in Fort Worth (@BrandonEffDub) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @DamianPRIEST_ I also shouldn’t have “Oops, Something went wrong” errors on multiple platforms, but here we are. Your app sucks.

  • ItsMeXarlie ×☆rl!€ (@ItsMeXarlie) reported

    I'm watching #HACKS from @hbomax but I can't help but wonder... WHERE THE **** SCENES ARE? it's not an @HBO serie if we don't have some naked people on it.

  • Tanjareen Tanjareen 🍊 (@Tanjareen) reported

    Wait, so @hbomax @PrimeVideo AND @hulu are not working tonight? Any other streaming sites down?

  • pblackmoe Noir (@pblackmoe) reported

    @SickJay84 @hbomax Did it work for you? I doesn't work for my ps4

  • jotwoods Joshua Woods (@jotwoods) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp The app is unusable and unwatchable on mobile. Please fix!

  • tanakaderoy Gwekerere rova bhora 🇿🇼 (@tanakaderoy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Check DM for more It isn't the progressbar that's flashing but there's a blinking black frame in the video. Sony OLED running Android TV. Probably something to do with the Dolby vision or HDR because the black frame doesn't happen when I cast it but then the picture quality ...

  • blk__hottiee Amazing Brother 🤠 (@blk__hottiee) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Fire stick and the app gets an error code and goes blank

  • Diya88449047 Diya Shaikh (@Diya88449047) reported

    @hbomax Yo why the audio not working we been trying to watch but its only offering Español????

  • patheticgrl433 ms magic wand (@patheticgrl433) reported

    @hbomax fix your broke *** app

  • DanielMcCue2014 Daniel McCue (@DanielMcCue2014) reported

    So #TheMatrixResurrections has enough CGI issues in it that I am glad I watched it on @hbomax rather than risking getting COVID and spending money in a theater. I'll give it ⭐⭐⭐out of 5, mainly because you have to remember to remove the harness cables in post!

  • bestfortheGOB Release eXistenZ in 4K (@bestfortheGOB) reported

    .@HBO @hbomax well, on release day #MatrixResurrections doesn't stutter like #Dune but the quality still ain't great. Maybe tomorrow. :\
