Re: Cant login to Max app

This is a Roku issue that needs to be fixed. I can log in to MAX on all my other devices except the Roku. Wants me to connect to my provider but when I do it tells me my email is already in use. Something is broken on the Roku MAX app.

Re: Cant login to Max app

Hi @PaisleyPillow,

Thank you for posting in the Roku Community!

We understand that you are having trouble accessing your Max channel subscription on your Roku device. Although you are able to access your Max channel subscription on other devices or platforms, the Max channel provider controls the app.

It's best to coordinate this directly with their Support team as they develop and maintain their app independently on the Roku streaming platform.

Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,

Re: Cant login to Max app

I was able to fix the exact same problem with my Roku by contacting HBO Max using the following method I found on the internet:

"The phone number for HBO Max customer service is (855) 942-6669. This isn't actually listed anywhere on HBO Max's website. However, that number is listed on Xfinity's, and I was able to confirm it by calling it myself.

Looking for technical support, all I had to do was dial that number and press "2" when I hit the first set of branching options in the phone tree."

After describing my problem, the person helping me disconnected and reconnected Max on their end and then walked me through reconnecting to Max on my Roku.  It worked!  Good luck to the rest of you.

Re: Cant login to Max app

I spoke on the phone with MAX support and have an open ticket for this very issue it’s specifically only on Roku devices . In MAX web account you can see they have a device issue you can sign in as many Roku devices and it only ever shows one Roku sign in unlike other devices where it shows each individual device. 

ROKU and MAX need to sort this I have 7 Roku devices in house and pre pay a year on MAX and it’s the only app doing this! And the worst part there is NO quick QR sign in!

Re: Cant login to Max app

Hi @FiddlyBits @HisSvt2,

Thanks for posting in the Roku Community!

We appreciate you reporting your experience with the Max application, specifically regarding the sign-in issue.

According to reports from Max app users, the issue has been resolved by contacting the Max channel provider. We recommend that you contact Max channel support, as this appears to be an authentication issue within the Max app. Please note that they independently develop and maintain their app on the Roku streaming platform.

You can contact them here for further assistance: Max Support | Contact Us

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
