Is Max down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Max successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 446 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 440 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 425 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 431 ms |
Based on 3,288 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.

About Max
Max is a premium streaming service that hosts a vast catalog of HBO series, Warner Bros. films, and live sports content. Viewers utilize the application for 4K video playback, profile management, and downloading content for offline viewing. Common technical difficulties include the app hanging on the splash screen, playback errors like 'something went wrong' messages, and subtitle synchronization problems. Rimetry monitors the Max streaming backend and content delivery network to provide live visibility into whether the service is accessible to its audience.
Problems with Max can affect website, login & authentication, playback independently.
Max (max.com) is a streaming service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now Max is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 451 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to max.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Max include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

Max is part of our Streaming category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Playback stalls or endless buffering
- · Error codes on start-up or when pressing play
- · Login loops and profile switching failures
- · Lower-than-usual video quality
Similar patterns often surface across other streaming providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Open the site in another browser to rule out a local cache issue
- · Test signing in from a private browser window or another device
- · Try a different title and a different device before assuming an outage
- · Check whether offline downloads still play while streaming fails
- · Stop playback, close the app completely, and reopen it
- · Try the same title in a browser to see whether it's app-specific
- · Switch networks (mobile data vs Wi‑Fi) — streaming is sensitive to ISP routing
- · Restart your TV, console or streaming stick, not just the app
- · Turn off a VPN or proxy: many catalogues block them and it looks like an outage
- · Check Max's official social channels
