HBO GO: Stream with TV Package App Reviews

In just crashes 90% of the time! Please fix!

Want to watch it full screen mode. Please update for X.

Please upgrade to allow the iPhone X to watch video in FULL SCREEN MODE, currently in landscape mode the ends are cut off. Take a look at YouTube’s option, double tap on the video or tap the full screen button in the top left corner and see. Thank you.

This app looks tiny and terrible on the iPhone X without an update for full screen support. The iPad Pro has it but so far it’s missing on the iPhone X.

Plain and simple. GARBAGE

The one thing any media company gets right, HBO cannot seem to figure out after 40 years. This is the worst app I am forced to use, as soon as GøT is over, so am I.

One star, for the lack of design, control and experience. I’m disappointed with the app because with other streaming competition offering a welcoming and easy to use interface where the user can add, remove, search and play entire series, seasons movies and favorites.. HBO has decided to create an app that offers ZERO ease of use usability. Want to add season to watchlist? Nope - not gonna happen. With this app, you’ll have to add each episode (one by one) manually. Want to search for a series ? Ok yeah you can do that, but once you’ve found it, you’ll go on forever trying to find the episode that you left off at (again, because you’re not allowed to add an entire season). I took some time to write HBO about how horrible the app is and they did not offer any good information. They thanked me for my “valuable feedback” but also let me know that they do not have any plans on updating the GO experience. Download - but don’t be surprised when you feel annoyed, frustrated and actually just give up on using it. (Review based on Xbox experience / iPhone experience)

Due to an apparent Identification & Authentication Bug under Apple iOS 11.1.2, Cannot Login after identifying Cable TV Provider. This problem also appears to affect Showtime Anytime App, so it is probably Apple Shared code.

The home bar is always visible on the bottom of the screen and does not auto hide. This takes up valuable real estate. Take a lesson from Nextfkix on their iPhone X integration.

Other streaming apps work fine except for these one. I get a screen with lines on it and it messes with my chromecast. I will unsubscribe from hbo because I rarely watch anything on their channels only use the HBO go app which only works sometimes.

You know what will kill HBO? Its not the content or price point. Its asking me to authenticate every few days. I wont use it because Im lazy and if I dont use it, I wont pay for it. Doesnt matter if it has the best programming in the world. It will be out of sight, out of mind, and out of business.

Constantly freezes up when trying to watch on TV

I just downloaded this app and it is broken. If you use the search function is breaks the app and leaves you on a black screen. Hopefully and update will fix this.

Crashes while watching shows via chrome cast. Doesnt record where it was in the episode before it crashes.

Dont even try to skip forward or back or the player will freeze and wont play at all. I had to restart my phone to fix it this POS app.

Ever since the last update I cant login even though I changed my password several times.

Please put back the movie ENTOURAGE! I have 20 friends who are complaining about you guys removing it!!! Please PUT BACK ENTOURAGE THE MOVIE!

This app does not work very well. As it doesnt have continuous play. As well as it will quit out multiple times while trying to access shows while connected via chrome cast. I love HBO entertainment. However, this app stinks..

You should do a show about a premium cable channel that spends millions and millions of dollars producing the highest quality, award-winning entertainment but either through stupidity or ineptitude broadcasts the signal sideways and repeatedly cuts the power to any house attempting to watch. If you want a good app for reference just check out the previous HBO Go app you replaced.

No continuous play when watching a series. Does not pair well with chromecast. Disconnects during shows. Please fix these issues!
