Hi, @gasser9
Welcome to the Roku Community.
We appreciate you for taking the time in sharing with us your concern regarding the Pause feature issue with the MAX app, and we're here to refer you to the right support to get this issue fixed.
Please be advised that a feature and functionality of apps on Roku are managed by the channel provider. Since this issue is happening only with the MAX app, it would be best to contact them and let them know about your experience with the Pause function of their app. They can provide you with a workaround or develop an update to resolve the issue.
You may reach them here: Max Support
We hope for your understanding in this matter.
Thanks,
Kash
