If you paid for a year to HBO Max directly, then that subscription is not tied to Apple in any way. The subscription should then be valid on any device that has the HBO Max app, when signed in with your HBO Max account.

You will need a device with the HBO Max app in order to access (all of the) HBO Max content.

You will have to ask DirecTV about app support on their devices, if your smart TV or optional other streaming devices don’t support the app.


There are subscription plans to HBO Max with billing through Apple, but not annual, those are monthly.

You will have to ask where you subscribed about undoing a recently started subscription, if it is not to your expectation.
