In an exciting development for streaming enthusiasts, HBO Max has undergone a significant rebranding and transformed into MAX.
As part of this transition, a new MAX app has been introduced to replace the previous HBO Max app on Firestick devices.
For those living in the US, the MAX app is readily available for download on the Amazon Store. However, for users located outside the United States, the old HBO Max APK won’t work, so here is the way to install the new MAX APK on FireStick.
It’s important to note that the MAX app will exclusively cater to international users, while users within the United States will still have access to the same extensive MAX content through the app available on the Amazon Store.
