Max reaches the UK differently from the US, and some HBO shows sit with other broadcasters there. A ROOT United States server lets a US Max account stream the American catalogue from Britain.
Connect to a ROOT server in the USA. Connect to a ROOT United States server to reach the US Max catalogue, which usually has the deepest HBO back-catalogue and the earliest premieres. You can pick a city on the the USA VPN page.
Max is only sold in certain markets, and each market has its own library. In countries where it has not launched, or where a show is licensed to a rival, playback is blocked by IP.
Four steps, about a minute, then press play.
Grab the free ROOT app for your phone, laptop or TV device. It installs in a few seconds, no setup to fuss with.
Sign up with an email, no card needed, or sign in if you already have one. The free tier is enough to get connected.
Open ROOT, choose the USA (New York or Atlanta) from the list and press connect. You now have a local IP address.
Load HBO Max as normal and press play. If a stream stalls, switch to another the USA city and reload.
ROOT changes where your connection appears to be, not what you are allowed to watch. Only stream content you have the right to access, with a valid subscription or entitlement where one is required.
