How do I sign up for HBO on Max?

HBO Max subscribers

If you’re a current HBO Max subscriber, you won’t need to sign up for Max. The HBO Max app will either automatically update to Max, or when you open HBO Max, you’ll be prompted to download the Max app.
That’s it—happy streaming!

What’s included with my Max subscription?

Max is the one to watch for all your streaming needs. The enhanced service will be home to all your favorites from HBO and HBO Max, but that’s not all Max will offer. There will also be lots of new-to-you content, including real-world series in the reality, lifestyle, food, and true crime genres.

In short: You’ll have a lot available to watch.
 

New to HBO Streaming?

If you aren’t a current subscriber, you can get Max by heading to the sign-up page. Follow the instructions to sign up, then download the app to your favorite streaming device and sign in. Start filling your watchlist with everything that piques your interest, and pick something to watch first. (If you want to start streaming before launch day, sign up for HBO Max now, and you’ll get access to Max when it launches.)
