MotorTrend+: Watch Car Shows
How do I use the download feature on MotorTrend+ to watch shows offline?
To download episodes, find a show you want to save and look for the download icon (usually a downward arrow) next to the episode. Tap it to save the episode to your device, then you can watch it later without an internet connection—perfect for areas with spotty cell service or long car trips.
Can I save shows to a watchlist on MotorTrend+ so I don't forget them?
Yes, the watchlist feature lets you save shows you come across in recommendations or searches. Just tap the bookmark or 'Add to Watchlist' button on a show's page, and you can easily find it later under your watchlist tab—helpful if your memory isn't what it used to be.
Why does MotorTrend+ take a long time to load on my phone, and how can I fix it?
If the app shows a spinning circle for a long time when you first open it, especially after a few days of not using it, try closing the app completely and reopening it. If that doesn't help, clearing the app's cache in your phone's settings can speed up loading times significantly.
What should I do if a show on MotorTrend+ keeps stopping in the middle and won't let me resume?
This is often caused by a corrupted cache. Go to your phone's settings, find the MotorTrend+ app, and select 'Clear Cache.' This should fix the playback issue. If it doesn't, contact support—they're polite but may take a few days to respond, so try the cache fix first.
How does MotorTrend+ compare to watching car shows on a traditional cable channel?
MotorTrend+ offers a much larger library of car shows like Top Gear, Wheeler Dealers, and Roadkill for a lower monthly price than a premium cable channel. You also get features like downloads and a watchlist, but the app can be slower to load and has a cluttered interface compared to the simplicity of cable.
