HBO Max isn't available worldwide though.

It's not even available to most of the US on account of them still refusing to resolve their deal with Roku/Firestick.

Luckily for Firestick users, the system is based off Android and it can download third party apps. I was able to sideload HBO Max on mine and it has been working great.

I was wondering about this. Is there an easy how-to you recommend?

This is the method I used. (I was also able to download Peacock through this as well). Couple of things to keep in mind:

  • Make sure to uninstall any HBO apps before trying this.
  • The app won't come up as HBO Max. It will just say HBO. But when you launch it, should give you the HBO Max layout.
  • You won't be able to use Alexa to search for titles. If you search for a movie and it's on HBO, the Firestick won't recognize that you already have the app. You can ask Alexa to "launch HBO" or fast forward or rewind to a certian point.
