Apple News could mimic the appearance of Flipboard , but it is an obvious response to Facebook Instant items , and includes articles from major publishers built specifically for the application. Like Facebook, Apple partnered with ESPN, the New York Times and Condé Nast publications such as Wired, GQ, Vogue and Vanity Fair to provide special content to readers.
While to appear in some of the biggest names in publications must generally pay a few euros, the application users will receive a free news content selection . For example, the New York Times will provide 30 free articles per month. Users will also be able to add other sites and blogs to their news feeds.
For those who are more in visual magazines, a feature called Photo Mosaics organize images in a gallery very eye-l'oeil. Fashion magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair could certainly use this feature to their advantage. Meanwhile, ESPN will offer graphics and short movie clips in the application for those who like to view statistics and see the highlights of a game.
Personalized information
Apple News format will also allow users to customize the font, layout, and other aspects of the application to personalize the experience. Vice President of Product Marketing at Apple, Susan Prescott said, "we believe there has never been a more beautiful magazine reading experience".
Of course, an application of news is not worth its weight in gold if it does not give you the information you want. But Apple has an answer for this. Users will be prompted for what interests them when they launch the app for the first time, and Apple will do the rest. The application will also push his personal curation based on the articles you read. While some people might be worried about privacy, Apple has ensured that all user preferences will not be used by other Apple services, and they will remain stored on the user device.
Apple News Newsstand replace the current application, and will be launched in the autumn in the US, UK and Australia.
