Can I manually adjust the video quality?

HBO Max automatically adjusts the video quality based on your network bandwidth and connection speed. Most shows and movies are available in high definition (HD). Manual video quality settings are not currently available.

If your network bandwidth is too low or the connection speed fluctuates, you might get a lower resolution video. If this happens, see Video buffers or pauses.

HBO Max has options to limit video playback depending on your connection type (cellular or WiFi). For more info, see Limit cellular data usage.

4K HDR
Some movies are available to stream in 4K on select devices. Learn more at Watch in 4K HDR.
