The app has had functionality issues, the most notorious one being when it crashed for thousands of users during the premiere of the Game of Thrones prequel "House of the Dragon", which millions of fans tuned in to watch after a three-year wait. 

For all the HBO Max users, don't worry, a new redesign will be coming soon. Warner Bros. has announced that HBO Max and Discovery+ are merging into a single streaming service with a new app that will be out next summer, Engadget reported last month.

The report says these ratings are likely because of the quality of Snapchat pictures on Android devices -pics might appear grainy and pixelated. Another factor is safety concerns involving location sharing via Snap Maps.
