The answer

HBO Max's own pages say you can cancel online and in the app.

After you cancel, per the provider: Stream until the subscription expires at the end of the billing period. Billed through Apple, Google or another company? Per the provider: Cancellation steps vary by billing provider (WarnerMedia, Amazon, Apple, etc.).

Not stated in the pages we read: a cancellation fee, a pause or downgrade option. See the ledger.
