We’ve opened **Automatic Streaming Tracking for HBO Max** to **all Trakt users** , not just VIP users.

If you watch on HBO Max, Trakt can automatically sync your viewing activity and keep your history up to date.

## 🛡 Protecting Your Watch History

The main reason we’re making this available to everyone is simple:

**Your watch history should always belong to you.**

Streaming platforms change constantly. Apps get renamed, merged, or sometimes disappear entirely. With the ongoing consolidation in the industry and the uncertainty around the future of services like HBO Max, it’s more important than ever that your viewing history lives somewhere else.

Automatic Tracking ensures your history is safely stored in Trakt where it is **preserved, portable, and always under your control.**

* * *

## 📱 How to Use It

Update the **Trakt mobile app on [iOS](https://trakt.tv/a/trakt-ios) or [Android](https://trakt.tv/a/trakt-android)**, then connect HBO Max in your Streaming Services settings.

Once connected, your HBO Max activity will automatically sync into your Trakt history.

No matter how the streaming wars evolve, **your history stays yours.**

🍿 Enjoy!

When setting this up does this allow you to select a profile from the streaming account or does it sync with all the profiles on the account?
