How to get hbo max on samsung

This is not a "solution". I bought 3 Samsung TVs and multiple Samsung phones onthe past 5 years so that they could be compatible with each other. Not only have you removed the simple, "screen mirror" function, but none of the new streaming services, including HBO Max and Disney Plus work. I have to use my 12 year old TV with a Firestick to watch all of the new streaming services.  This should be a very simple software or firmware upgrade and now I'm being forced to get a new TV!? Guess what brand I will WILL not ever buy again?

Problem-2 Don’t see my Provider list

Here’s a list of providers that currently support HBO Max.

Problem-3 Can’t sign in through a provider

If you can’t sign in through your TV, internet, or mobile provider.

Try these steps:

Step 1: Sign in to your provider’s website

First things first, make sure you can sign in to your provider account. Your provider is who you signed up through or who bills you each month for HBO Max.

Go to your provider’s website and sign in with the username and password for your provider account. If you can’t remember or don’t know your sign-in information, look for a help or reset password link on your provider’s sign-in screen.

If you can’t sign in to your provider account, please contact your provider for help. HBO Max Support doesn’t have access to your provider sign-in information.

Step 2: Can’t verify your subscription?

If you’re getting a ‘Can’t verify your subscription’ message, find your provider below:

• AT&T wireless or internet: You may need to set up your plan for HBO Max. See Sign in through AT&T.
• TV or cable provider:
  • Make sure your TV package includes HBO Max. To do this, sign in to your provider account (on your provider’s website) and make sure HBO Max is included.
  • Apple device: Try removing your TV provider in Settings. To do this on your Apple TV, go to Settings > Accounts > TV Provider and choose Remove TV Provider. To do this on your iOS device, go to Settings > TV Provider and choose Remove TV Provider. Now, open HBO Max and try signing in again.
  • If your TV provider account is a subaccount, you need to sign in to HBO Max using your primary TV provider account. Once you’re signed in, you can create profiles for members of your household.
• AT&T TV, DIRECTV, U-Verse, or WatchTV: Make sure your AT&T account includes access to HBO Max. See Sign in through AT&T TV, DIRECTV, U-Verse, or WatchTV.
• Hulu: See Can’t sign in through Hulu.

Problem-4 If the HBO Max app isn’t working as expected

Try these steps:

Step 1: Update HBO Max

See if there’s an app update for HBO Max. Here’s how:

1. Open the Smart Hub on your Samsung TV.
2. Select Apps.
3. Select the Settings icon (upper-right corner).
4. Select Updates.

To stream HD video, you need a high-speed connection with a minimum download speed of 5 Mbps. If videos are buffering, please see Video loads slow, pauses, or buffers.
