How do I access HBO Max content on a Sky+ HD box.....?

[LurkingLawyer]

Not sure whether it just hasn't gone live yet but I can't see how to access HBO Max content via my ancient 2Tb HD+ box.

Searching for The Pitt doesn't bring up any results, and I can't see any of the content in Catch Up or Box Sets. 

I know we're not getting Disney+ via Sky+ but had understood that HBO Max content would be accessible. 

Any ideas.....?

Thanks!

Forgot to add - I'm on Sky Signature,  if that makes a difference.

@LurkingLawyer it will be available via On Demand, but appears not ready yet for Sky+ users. Try again later on today.

@LurkingLawyer Content now appearing in Sky Box Sets > HBO Max 

Hoping a way of searching through it better will follow.

Nothing yet in catchup @LurkingLawyer but should appear later apparently.

HBO content, yes.  By definition it's not Max content, because Max is the app and Sky+ doesn't do apps....

@LurkingLawyer 

And now content is in catchup as well.

Films in boxsets is a bit odd.

[LurkingLawyer]

Err, HBO Max is the name of the VOD streaming service, which also now happens to be available through Sky - even Sky's own publicity refers to it as such.... 🤷

Is the list in Catch Up any different to the list in Box Sets? At first glance they look the same.

The content is all labeled HBO Max.

The Pitt does not seem to available in the Sky+ package? 

[LurkingLawyer]

Yeah, it's not in the Box Sets or Catch Up sections 🫤

Thanks for nothing Sky! 😬

Hope it's some sort of mistake and it will appear at some point. 

It's also a nightmare to search since you have to go through the alphabetical listimgs and can't search by title 🤦

I have a Sky HD+ box and have had the email saying that HBO Max is included in my subscription. The FAQs suggest integration should be seamless and programmes now on HBO Max should show up in On Demand: "If you have Sky+, you can watch HBO shows on demand on your Sky box. You don’t need to sign in or set anything up."

They are all missing and none of the show up in searches. Am I missing something or is it broken already on Day 1?

[rjc1692]

Thanks. I'm not in front of the box at the moment. Should I be able to see them in the Sky Go app to DL to my Sky box? If so, they're not in the Box Sets. I checked and the app is up to date. It still has Sky Atlantic as a box set tile, but no sign of HBO Max.

Hope The Pitt does become available on Sky+, , be annoying if not as I was looking forward to that
