Wow, @HBOMax.... Normally the video quality on shows is good, but someone really needs to reencode The Larry Sanders Show on your platform. It's pretty bad. Lots of dropped frames. When Mill Creek Entertainment's DVDs look better than your encoding, you know it's bad. :)

@hbomax and @VIZIOsupport kiss and make up plz, so I can put the stupid app on the stupid tv, so I don’t have to ******* cast shows from my phone, as I’m very bad at keeping my phone charged, and I don’t have a charger by my couch, so this is a BIG issue for me.

@HBOMaxHelp I have Samsung (5 Series) smart TV, and I subscribed about two days ago. Since then, I have been having a terrible time watching movies and shows. It keeps buffering and slightly glitches at times. Why is this happening and how long would this be an issue?

@hbomax @PS5 please fix your app. It’s almost unusable with the constant “oops something went wrong” error message popping up

@hbomax Please fix the browser based playback for TV shows. It's like there's some arbitrary constant set for time to trigger "Next Episode."

@Ali610 @HBOMaxHelp @XfinitySupport I thought it was just me! This is crazy - i put in code four times, reset xfinity box then got in only to loop to home screen as play doesn’t work! I pick any show hit play and go back to home screen.

@HBOMaxHelp me again, your app still won’t work on the PS4. Unlike yesterday, it actually starts to load before glitching and then immediately shutting off.

A heads up. Our @HBOMax account was hacked and login was changed. HBO CS is useless. I cancelled the account and re-upped through another provider. If you are 1 of the lucky few who hasn't been hacked, go in and change your password NOW. 1/2

@HBOMaxHelp @dasilvalining It would be nice if you just fixed the app overall or told us what to do because seems all Roku users are having this issue. I just wanted to download the app on my Roku and the screen won’t even load when I try to get into the app. Don’t even have an account yet

@hbomax Hey hbomax, I pay $15 a month for your service that has crashed on my ps4 at least 6 times in the last 45 minutes. Apparently I’m not the only one. Is there a fix on the way?
