Questions
Is Netflix or HBO Max cheaper?
Both have a plan with ads. HBO Max also sells yearly plans. The tool shows each plan side by side.
Is the price different in the iPhone app?
It can be. A plan you buy inside a service’s iPhone app is billed by Apple at Apple’s price, which isn’t always the website price. Check the price on the App Store before you subscribe.
