So, I've messed around with the HBO Max app on my phone and my TV, and I totally get why people used to complain about it. Like last year, the app would freeze, crash, or just randomly log me out for no reason. It drove me crazy, especially when all I wanted to do was finish a show.

But honestly, it's improved a lot lately. They rolled out some updates, and now it's smoother and less buggy for me. I can find the stuff I want quicker because the menus don't take forever to load anymore. The search is a little better, but it's not perfect. I still see people online complaining about certain devices being kind of glitchy, but usually it's better than it used to be. I think they're actually listening to complaints for once.

For me, the easiest fix was just making sure my app was up to date. After that, it ran like it was supposed to most of the time. Honestly, it's way less annoying to use now, and I hope it keeps getting better because nothing ruins a chill night faster than an app that won't work.
