There is however a workaround for users on Roku who own an Apple device. Recently it was revealed that Roku TV, Roku Streambar, Roku Premiere, and Roku Streaming Stick+ now support AirPlay from any Apple device, meaning that you can stream HBO Max on your phone or laptop and share it to your Roku device to watch films and series on the big screen.
If you’ve not yet got HBO Max, you can sign up for an account on the website for $14.99 per month. Currently the service is only available in the US, but we’ve found a workaround for signing up in the UK.
Your account will grant you access to exciting upcoming shows such as the reunion episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, the reunion episode of Friends and the Justice League Snyder Cut. There’s also plenty of classic Warner Bros shows and films to enjoy, as well as acclaimed HBO shows such as Game of Thrones.
