Football fans will need to download a new app onto their Android and iPhone devices today if they want to keep watching action from the Premier League, Champions League and MotoGP.
That's due to the current BT Sport app being shut down for good with content now switched over to the Discovery+ App instead.
For those not aware, BT Sport was recently rebranded to TNT Sports after the service was taken over by Warner Bros Discovery.
The shakeup means that BT Sport and its app no longer exist with all content - such as the Premier League, UEFA Champions League,Premiership Rugby, MotoGP, UFC, Boxing and WWE - now being shown on the new platform.
“TNT Sports customers who want to stream live sport content are encouraged to download the discovery+ App at the earliest opportunity,” said TNT. If you have had a BT Sport account then the switch should be pretty straightforward.

It’s also been confirmed that on October 12, when the BT Sport App closes, it will be updated to become the TNT Sports App, a free news and results service available for anyone to access.
