Get started with News on iPhone
The News app collects all the stories you want to read, from your favorite sources, about the topics that interest you most. To personalize News, you can choose from a selection of publications (called channels) and topics such as Entertainment, Food, and Science.
The more you read, the better News understands your interests. Siri learns what’s important to you and suggests stories you might like. You can also receive notifications about important stories from channels you follow.
You can also subscribe to Apple News+, which includes hundreds of magazines, popular newspapers, and premium digital publishers.
Note: You need a Wi-Fi or cellular connection to use News. The News app and Apple News+ aren’t available in all countries, regions, or languages.
Personalize your news
When you follow a channel or topic, related stories appear more often in the Today feed, and the channel or topic appears in the Following tab.
Open News for the first time, tap Following, then tap
next to channels and topics you want to follow.
If there are channels or topics that you don’t want to appear in your feed, tap
to block them or to stop News from suggesting them.
When you block a channel or topic, its stories are filtered out of the Today feed and Today widget. However, you may see stories from channels you’ve blocked in Top Stories and other locations that feature stories chosen by Apple News editors. Tap Following > Blocked Channels & Topics to see the channels and topics you’ve blocked.
Tap Discover Channels & Topics at the bottom of the screen, then tap
for each channel and topic you want to follow.
To stop following a channel or topic, swipe it to the left, then tap Unfollow.
To easily follow specific channels and topics, tap the search field at the top of the screen, enter the channel or topic’s name, then tap in the results below.
Get notifications
Some channels you follow may send notifications about important stories.
Tap Following, swipe to the bottom of the screen, then tap Notifications & Email below Manage.
Turn on notifications for your preferred channels.
If you subscribe to Apple News+, you can get notifications when new issues are available. If you turn on Apple News Today, you receive a link to the show notes associated with an episode of Apple News Today, as you listen to that episode.
Receive Apple News newsletters
You can choose to receive newsletters in your email inbox from Apple News editors highlighting top stories. Newsletters can be personalized based on your interests.
Tap Following, swipe to the bottom of the screen, then tap Notifications & Email.
Swipe to the bottom of the screen, then turn on Apple News Newsletter.
To stop receiving newsletters, return to the Notifications & Email screen, then turn off Apple News Newsletter.
Note: Personalized newsletters aren’t available in all countries or regions.
See stories only from the channels you follow
Go to Settings , tap News, turn on Restrict Stories in Today, then confirm your choice.
Note: Restricting stories significantly limits the variety of stories that appear in the Today feed and all other feeds. For example, if you restrict stories and follow only one entertainment-related channel, your Entertainment topic feed will contain stories only from that channel. When you restrict stories, you don’t see Top Stories and Trending Stories.
