You also get access to HBO Original content, like behind-the-scenes exclusives and trailers.
Through this awesome streaming service, HBO's vast library of movies, animated shows and documentaries is now right at your fingertips. Best of all, highly-anticipated HBO Original programs premiere at the same time as HBO viewers in the US, which makes catching up easier!
With the HBO GO app, you get a hold of incredibly useful features that make your viewing experience easier, better and overall, an ideal experience for your home theater.
1. Download Option
Want to take your favorite TV series with you without racking up data charges? Don't want to burden the bandwidth at home by streaming? HBO GO gives you the option to download up to 20 movies and episodes onto your device so that you can watch even without internet connection.
2. Personalized Watchlist
One of the best things about streaming is being able to decide what to watch when you want to watch it. HBO GO's personalized watchlist lets you create a list of shows or movies you can watch anytime you want.

Watching your favorite programs is good, but seeing them the way they were made to be viewed is even better. HBO GO provides an optimal viewing experience by streaming all content in true HD quality.

Here's a problem you've probably faced: you're in the middle of watching your favorite show or blockbuster when something comes up and forces you to abandon your stream. HBO GO's video continuity feature lets you pick up where you left off across all signed-in devices, making for a seamless viewing experience.
5. Parental Control
In order to keep watching safe and fun for the whole family, HBO offers a Parental Control feature that restricts access to certain types of content depending on the selected age guidance.
