HBO Go is an on-demand streaming application by HBO. But then, as of 31 July 2020, the HBO Go app isn’t available. However, it is still accessible from its official website. The access gets denied automatically for those using the app earlier. Fortunately, the HBO Go app got replaced by HBO Max. Current HBO Go users can access the HBO Max app at no extra cost. But still, if you like HBO Go, you can visit the HBO website and start streaming the content. Currently, you can Chromecast HBO Go to your TV only from the web browser.
