Anyone else annoyed with how buggy the HBO Max apple tv software is?
vs binging on Netflix, the experience has way more weird UI bugs and hangs.
Finding we're constantly restarting the app/apple tv because it keeps hanging or erroring out.
- ssully 6y agoI haven't had to restart it, but the app does seem flaky. My biggest issue is the UI; every time I use it I have to relearn how to find the section I am looking for. With that said, I do like how they curate and surface movies based on different themes. I'll be curious to see where it is 6 months or so from now.
- grillvogel 6y agoyes, I have a regular profile and a kids profile and permissions get screwed up all the time when i switch between them to the point where i have to reboot the apple tv
- nicolas_t 6y agoMy pet peeve is the Amazon Prime Video App. The UI is a mess, if I click on a recent tv show, it defaults to the latest season and it's very annoying to navigate back to the first season. They have great content but exploring the content available through the app is such a pain.
- e40 6y agoEarly on it was buggy on Roku, but I haven't had crashes in a while. However, the UI is really sluggish and painful to use. Have a Roku Ultra.
- devmunchies 6y agoYes. I have spotty internet but Netflix and Prime do great at buffering (on smart TV), so not an issue. Max is terrible at buffering. I don't think it buffers more than a few seconds at a time. I had to keep an additional HBO channel activated on my Prime account just to watch some HBO stuff. I know I can save offline with an iPad and cast to the TV but too inconvenient. Will probably cancel soon.
