    Apple news is good and News+ is great and all, but tbh it could be better and contain more news sources. Great news app that you can't go wrong with, has plenty of news and sources, but not enough for my liking and I didn't see the ability to add custom sources which might be there and I just missed it but if it does have that, I i still give it 4/5 stars until Apple steps up their game a bit on the news+ app and subscriptions that are included.

    Apple news consolidates many interesting articles. Only drawback is that subscription is too high for who many only use it few times a week.

    I scoffed at Apple when first releasing this because I didn't think it was necessary or useful. But it ends up being one of those things where once you have it you get spoiled by it and find it hard to be without later. Great service, I actually have really been enjoying it!

    I really like getting Apple News right on my iPhone. It’s very convenient and I’m kept up to date on all the news because I have my notifications set. Apple News compares fairly similar to any other news source that I’d go to to find out any latest news. Apple News is an app I go to find out the latest news. It is one of my go to apps when I want to find out a major story or development. I haven’t had any problems with using the app either as far as that goes.

    This six month Apple News+ trial is a great way for you to test out Apple's news and magazine subscription service. The magazines and newspapers included in the package is pretty robust. I personally enjoy skimming through the car magazines as well as consumer reports. The fact that you can access everything from any Apple device really makes the service worth it.

    KEEPING UP-TO-DATE!!

    Absolutely loved keeping up-to-date with what is going on in the world! Apple News+ is a fantastic feature. My only complaint is that once the free subscription run out, I will not be able to continue using it. It is just TOO EXPENSIVE at $9.99/month for the news. There are too many alternatives available. Apple should give an annual subscription offer that is highly discounted and I would be the first one to sign up!!

    I love Apple News+ as it gives me access to hundreds of magazines and all consolidated into 1 good looking app. The only thing I wish is the UI for each magazine is slightly different and if they can standardize into side flips would be great. I hope they continue to add magazines and more newspaper too to supple to local media in each location and its fun to have a chance to read other local news.

    This is a good option since I read a number of articles every day. I was tired of seeing all of the popups to subscribe every time I clicked on an article, so this single consolidated option was ideal. It has a good selection of content providers and meets my needs whether it's business articles, sports or general entertainment.

    Although there are a fair amount of unnecessary steps. You should remember to make sure that you don’t forget to cancel or else it unless you want to continue with the service at full price as once the trail is over it will automatically charge you full price

    Another free trial! Best Buy is incredibly generous. The service itself fits well into the Apple ecosystem. The news aggregation is quite nice, offering different news outlets that I wouldn’t normally seek out. Having access to magazines is what makes this great, though. Quite a few to choose from and the catalog goes back a few issues for each.

    Apple News+, a subscription based service from Apple is good to have if you are in Apple ecosystem. The news subscription caters to your taste based on what is selected as your interest. It provides regular news with notifications so that one can be on top of things around the world. Along with news, it also provides access to plethora of magazines.

    Worth the free trial, not for me to renew

    Glad I was able to try this subscription and probably wouldn’t have unless BestBuy offered this for me because of my Apple Products I’ve purchased, anyhow it was cool but I won’t be paying for a renewal. It’s also biased media leaning left and I prefer more truth and staying in a middle lane I’d say haha.

    This is an amazing service to have because we get news instantly. I have tried other services and it doesn’t compare. It’s worth having AppleNews to stay informed on news that matter to you. I absolutely love it.

    Take advantage of this! Even reading just a couple of magazines pays for itself, and if you forget to cancel, well, Apple makes it easy to cancel... You pay nothing to be a Best Buy member and just get this... go! Looks great on iPads by the way...

    It gives notifications about daily news. Always the first to alert me on news about politics, royal, covid updates, recent news. I love reading, so reading about what’s happening around the whole world is interesting and makes stay curious and hooked on the news passage. It’s better than those news channels.
