It seems that HBO Max crashed just before the highly anticipated finale of Euphoria Season 2. Apparently, it was reported by thousands of users.
They had issues with the app on various streaming devices. This also included the Amazon Firestick. The Amazon Firestick is currently the most popular media device. This is thanks to its low price point and “jailbreaking” abilities.
DownDetector is a well-known website. It provides real-time reports on outages and issues. It noted over 52,000 complaints right as the episode was going to air.
Many people encountered an error screen or message. It said the following:
Something Went Wrong. We’re having trouble communicating with the service, so sorry. Please close the app and try again.
Alternatively, users were met with a “Can’t Connect” message.
Tons of fans across the US voiced their issues with HBO Max. They took to Twitter and other outlets to share their frustrations.

The issue with the application seemed to be resolved after only a short time. Users could then access the stream again. A WarnerMedia spokesperson made a statement.
We saw the tweets from some of our users. They were having trouble accessing HBO Max around 9pm ET. We are engaging directly with them. We want to help get them back into the platform.
This was followed up quickly with a brief update.
This was a short interruption. It has been resolved.
