MotorTrend is a popular name among automotive enthusiasts. Started as an automobile magazine, MotorTrend has come a long way and today, it has its own television network making our favorite automobile shows.

All of shows and other content are available on the MotorTrend App for users with the subscription to stream. Unfortunately, folks outside the U.S. and Canada are out of luck.

Lately, MotorTrend’s Android app experience hasn’t been great with users reporting multiple bugs and issues with the app.

A user reported that while watching live racing on the app on Amazon Fire TV Stick the screen shows a huge “up next” image which never goes away and can’t be toggled off. This ruins the streaming experience for users.

Through the Google Play Store, MotorTrend’s Android app team replied to a concerned user that they are aware of the bug and are working towards resolving it.
