re: How can the HBO max app be so awful?

Have had similar issues with my Samsung TV and older Roku; Roku TV & newer Fire Cube works flawlessly. But, since I primarily watch on my Samsung I just didn't renew. I'm sure I will come back to it down the road, but I'm behind on a lot of shows on my other apps and don't watch nearly as much TV as I once did.
I would constantly buffer on shows, movies wouldn't load. I'd have to reinstall the app every 3-4 days to get it to work a little better.

I have no problems with the App on my Roku, sounds like User Error to me.

Like a couple others have said I watch it on Roku and don't have any problems. Sounds like something going on with the device you are using or a balky internet connection

The app absolutely sucks on my LG TV
Same here. It works great everywhere else, but it's crashed for me several times on my LG.

Probably sharing with too many. It works great for me on several devices.

We watch all the streaming apps through the Fire Stick, the only one that continues to give us problems after it’s launch is Disney+. Netflix works the best, all the time. HBO Max might have a glitch here and there but Disney+ has been the most problematic.

It works flawlessly on my Apple TV

They could add a "start over" or "play from beginning" option and that would fix my issues I've had with the app.

Works okay for me on Roku. Apple TV app on the other hand has been complete arse. It's getting uninstalled whenever I finish Ted Lasso.

Here's the harsh truth: the Netflix app is virtually perfect (only flaw I notice is the -30 and +30 buttons seem to change/disappear based on whether you're watching on your phone or casting it to another device.
But ALL of the other ones are either much worse or just downright awful. HBO and Disney are the 2 worst offenders.
Prime and Hulu are merely passable.
I don't get it. Isn't base functionality the easiest part of this whole thing?
