HBOMax is now available in 39 territories in Latin America and the Caribbean
That aside, all HBO Max subscribers will be able to enjoy fan favorite content from WarnerMedia properties, including Friends, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Looney Tunes and more from WB, DC Universe and Cartoon Network.
HBO Max also has its own content, like Raised by Wolves, the Justice League of Zack Snyder, the stewardess and the next one Gossip Girl to restart. It’s not just about US-produced content either, HBO Max has committed to producing 100 local originals in Latin America over the next two years (but not in the Caribbean, apparently).
Interested users have the choice between two packages:
- Standard – up to 3 simultaneous streams from 5 custom profiles, HD and 4K resolution, up to 30 titles can be downloaded for offline viewing
- Mobile – 1 simultaneous stream with 1 profile, SD resolution, up to 5 titles for offline download
Note that both are ad-free plans, the cheaper ad-supported plan is not available. You can verify HBOMax.com for more details on pricing.
You can use an Android phone, tablet, or Android TV device, as well as an iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. Additional devices are also supported, including Chromecasts, Roku devices, LG Smart TVs (webOS 3.5+) and Samsung Smart TVs (2016 and later models), as well as Xbox One and S and X series. you prefer to use a computer, you can use Edge (on Windows) or Firefox, Chrome and Safari (on macOS).
Note for international travelers: If you signed up in the United States, you can continue to use the service when you travel to any of the 39 new territories. It also works the other way around, for those traveling to the United States from those territories.
This was only the first expansion after launch in the United States. The next step for HBO Max is Europe, that will happen later this year.
