Read about Apple
Presents a menu of options for opening into Apple, HomeKit, or Apps stories in the News app.
Show me tech news
Uses the Show Topic action from News to open into the main Technology news category, which I’ve found is a good superset or generic term that captures all the best stories from tech subjects I’m interested in before I dive into more specific topics.
See issues from National Geographic
Opens to the “Issues” tab of the Nat Geo magazine in Apple News+, where you can open or download specific issues.
Show Today’s top stories
Opens the News app and switches to the Today tab, showing you Top Stories, Trending Stories, For You categories, magazines, the Editor’s pick, and curated categories based on your past browsing.
Show my saved stories
Opens into the Saved Stories tab of the News app, where you can quickly access news stories you’ve saved for later – I’ll often save multiple stories as I browse, then visit this tab to read them all one-by-one.
