How to use My List on HBO Max
Need to save shows and movies for playback later on HBO Max? We’ll show you how to do it here.
To say that HBO Max has a big streaming library would be to damn the streamer with faint praise. Not only will you find a huge selection of HBO originals from past and present, but you’ll also be able to watch TV shows from Warner Bros. Discovery-owned cable networks like Discovery, Food Network, HGTV, Magnolia Network, and many others.
That’s before even mentioning the decades’ worth of movies from the Warner Bros. movie studio that are available with a subscription, and that all adds up to a library that can make it hard to keep track of all the titles you want to stream. Fortunately, HBO Max comes with a My List feature to let you bookmark TV shows and movies for later, and we’ll explain how to use it below.
What you need to know about using My List on HBO Max
How to use My List on HBO Max
Using My List on HBO Max is a fairly similar experience across the streamer’s connected TV app, its mobile app, and its web page. The first step in the process is to open HBO Max on your chosen platform, then navigate to the details page of the TV show or movie you want to save.
You’ll find the +My List button in the row of controls that allows you to start an episode over, watch the trailer, and perform other similar functions. The only difference between platforms is that on the HBO Max connected TV app, the + button that adds TV shows and movies to your playlist doesn’t have the text “My List” next to it.
The My List button on HBO Max is the same on the web and the streamer’s mobile app, but cuts out the text on some smart TVs. Click to expand.
Once you’ve pressed this button, you’re ready to find the title saved in the My List tab on your HBO Max home screen.
