HBO Max is officially just MAX: what this means for you

Max

The dreaded day has arrived: the streaming service HBO Max is now just MAX. Luckily, most HBO Max subscribers won't see a significant change to their service, but if you want to know exactly how this rebranding is going to affect your favorite source of entertainment, then you've come to the right place. 

For starters, it's worth noting that existing HBO Max subscribers will automatically be given access to MAX. For users of most Apple, Samsung, LG, and Android TVs, you'll be prompted to install the MAX app the next time you open HBO Max. If you have an Amazon, Roku, Vizio, or Xfinity TV, you'll need to pop into your app store to find the MAX app and install it. Either way, all of the HBO Max content that you know and love will remain the same, alongside your watch history and profile settings, plus you'll get a bunch of new stuff from Discovery Plus, including shows from networks like TLC and HGTV.
