This is a step-by-step guide on how to install and watch HBO Max on Mi TV Stick and Mi TV Box.
HBO Max (rebranded as Max App) is the only streaming platform that is packed with all the bundles of HBO together. You can stream your favorite TV Shows, blockbuster movies, and Max originals.
The previously installed HBO Max APK won’t work any longer, you must have to install the new MAX APK in order to stream its content.
It is a Premium US-based streaming service that costs $9.99/month (With Ads), $15.99/month (Ads Free) & $19.99/month (Ultimate).
The Max app is not available on the Play Store outside the US, so you would need to install Max APK using the method which I have discussed in this guide.
But since this is an APK Method, this app won’t work with a regular Mi TV Stick remote, but with a Mouse app that helps in easy navigation.
If you are outside the US region and try to access the Max content then you will face the Geo-location error that says:
“Not Available in Your Region Yet”
Therefore, it is recommended to use a VPN on your Mi TV Stick and connect to the US server to access the content.
Our Recommended VPN – ExpressVPN
Warning: ExpressVPN is our main choice when it comes to unblocking geo-restricted content OR Streaming free content that is available on third-party APKs. It ensures that your online activities remain concealed from the Government and ISPs.
ExpressVPN offers 3 extra months for free along with a 30-day money-back guarantee. The VPN can work on five simultaneous devices with a single account.
