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 Today feed collects the best stories from the channels and topics you follow.
With iOS 12.2 or later, you can subscribe to Apple News+, which includes hundreds of magazines, popular newspapers, and premium digital publishers (U.S. and Canada only). See Subscribe to Apple News+ on iPhone.
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.
Note: You need a Wi-Fi or cellular connection to use News. News is currently available in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and Australia. News supports both English and Canadian French publications.

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.

When you restrict stories, you don’t see Top Stories and Trending Stories.
