The support for HBO through Apple TV Channels will continue on the third-generation Apple TV despite the service’s standalone app being discontinued. This subscription can be shared across all devices that can access the Apple TV app, and with up to six members of your family through Family Sharing. You can sign up and pay for HBO on Apple TV Channels through your Apple ID for $14.99 per month, the same price as the native app. This means that HBO is available through the TV app as well. This is because Apple added the new TV app to the third-generation Apple TV, as part of its rollout of Apple TV+. However, if you have the third-generation model, one possible workaround for HBO Now subscribers is to cancel your direct subscription to HBO and instead sign up through Apple TV Channels. If you have a second-gen model, then you don’t really have any options but to buy a new streaming device: You can get a newer Apple TV or something like an Amazon Fire Stick, and use the HBO Now app on that. The company didn’t give a reason why it was ending support, but we believe it is related to a lack of modern video codec support and a desire to cut some technical baggage as HBO focuses on its brand-new HBO Max streaming initiative in May. The removal of HBO Go and HBO Now affects owners of Apple TV second-generation and Apple TV third-generation.
But now, HBO is ending support as it prepares to launch its new HBO Max streaming service. Apple also sold that model of Apple TV for as low as $69, so it was very popular.

The apps will no longer work when that time comes a banner is now visible in the HBO app on the older Apple TV boxes explaining the impending removal.Īlthough the third-gen Apple TV is actually an eight-year-old device at this point, released in 2012, a lot of them are still in use as the upgrade cycle for set-top boxes is much longer than it is for phones. HBO Go will be discontinued at a later date. The HBO Now app is ending support for the third-generation Apple TV on May 15 (originally scheduled for April 30). Update: HBO today extended the deprecation date another two weeks, so HBO Now will keep working until May 15th and HBO Go will continue for a few more months.
