HBO MAX captions

Thanks for reaching out, caninemiss.

It sounds like you're having some difficulty with using closed captions when using AirPlay from your MacBook. We can help.

HBO offers these steps on their Help Centerthat may provide a solution: Subtitles, captions, and audio tracks.

Hope that helps.

Take care!

Thanks for that added information, caninemiss.

Originally, when we read "I can't get from sign on w/ laptop onto TV screen" we took that to mean the you were accessing the HBO app on the MacBook and displaying it on a TV. Now that you've cleared up that the issue is instead with the HBO app on your Samsung smart TV, our recommendation would be to still try the steps in the article linked above, but additionally to check out Samsung's article: Closed captions and other accessibility settings for your Samsung TV.

If you find that you continue to run into difficulty, or need additional assistance you may need to reach out to these developers directly, as Apple doesn't own or directly support either the HBO app or Samsung TVs, and has no additional information about using HBO on a Samsung TV.

Here's how to reach a developer: How to contact an app developer.

Take care!
