Fantast app, just not the inconveniences
I love this app and use it on both my iPhone and iPad. HBO offers quality shows and a good selection of well-known movies along with some originals. The video quality is wonderful, the app works almost flawlessly, and I have never been frustrated with it. There are only a few small complaints;
1. Picture-in-picture does not transition from the app to the home screen well. When I use Picture in Picture on other services like Netflix, it transitions smoothly. This is not the case with HBO Go. I usually have to rewind the show a few seconds back and then enter PIP so that i dont miss anything, which is very annoying.
2. The layout. I find it annoying that I can only add episodes to Watch List, and not the whole series. Its very annoying, especially with many-episode shows like Last Week Tonight. I also wish the continue watching page was accurate so that i can pick right back up where I left off.
Overall, a fantastic app and service that has not failed to serve its purpose and entertain!
