HBO Max is one of the most popular streaming services available on almost every platform. That’s why it would be strange if you couldn’t download and install this service app on a modern Samsung Smart TV.
Although for a $15 subscription (without advertising), you get a bunch of excellent content to watch, sometimes the service can still get boring. For example, if you’ve watched all the movies and TV shows you wanted, and something new that would interest you is not expected, you are unlikely to want to continue paying for a subscription in vain. So you can cancel it.
So let’s take a closer look at how to do this on your Samsung TV.
