This is the Apple Watch update: your watch now follows the news on its own. • Your watch fetches the latest articles every hour, even when your iPhone has been left behind. They are prepared by your Mac, or otherwise by your iPhone. • A new home screen on the watch: the latest article's image full screen, the article list and the daily editorial one tap away, and three gauges for unread articles, the news pulse and the topic heating up. • Two new pages on the watch: the daily editorial, and today's pictures. • New "Top stories in pictures" complication: the photo of one of the latest articles, changing every ten minutes. New "Figure of the moment" complication: the figures found in your articles, also changing every ten minutes. • Tap a person, a country or an organisation to open its page: photo, description, a map with a link to Maps, and its most recent articles. Every article also shows its three main entities. • Tapping a complication opens the article it is about. And an article started on your wrist carries on on your iPhone: tap "Open on iPhone", then the notification. • Complications are now translated into your watch's language. • Choose your notifications, type by type and device by device. A new notification flags two sources giving different tolls for the same event, and another tells you if your watch is no longer receiving anything. • New "App health" screen in the iPhone and Mac settings: unexpected quits and frozen screens reported by the system. These reports never leave your device. • Three new widgets on iPhone, iPad and Mac: "Figure of the moment", "Editorial of the day" and "Top stories in pictures". Photos now fill the whole widget, and in StandBy the latest articles take turns. • On Apple TV, every five articles the slideshow pauses on the news dashboard: six tiles you can read from the sofa. • Every section of the settings can now be found by search.

This update brings analyst reports, and the presentation that goes with them. • Ask for a report on an entity or a story: your Mac writes it section by section, cites its sources, illustrates it with the articles' own images, and turns it into a presentation ready to project. • On OS 27, summaries are much faster on Mac, and on recent devices you can choose the tone of your summaries. • On devices that support Apple Intelligence, the image viewer describes the article's picture, and VoiceOver reads that description aloud. The image details can now be shown full screen, easier to read. • A story now brings out its key figures — valuations, funding rounds, revenue, users, admissions — in date order, and shows side by side the tolls that differ from one article to another. Every figure comes with its source's sentence, and the same figures appear in reports and presentations. • Automatically detected stories now leave out off-topic articles, and their "In brief" summary is written more often. • The editorial reads as flowing text, organised by theme, without bullet points. • The app is optimised for large volumes of articles: the list opens without waiting, even with thousands of articles, and loads the rest as you scroll. After the update, the app reorganises your corpus. • Your dedicated device now receives your requests promptly, even when its app isn't open. Reports you request from iPhone arrive on their own, and come back ready to read on every device. • Your reading filters are kept between launches, and an article you've just read no longer vanishes from the list while you look at it. • A page showing a cookie banner no longer leaves that text in place of the article. • People and places named in a headline are detected more reliably, and an uncertain date now says where its uncertainty comes from. • Your sort choice is kept between launches, and the list opens on the most recently detected articles. • Reports are now written entirely in your language — section headings and dates included. • The app writes far less to disk in the background, and merging entities is more reliable.

A release about the quality of your archive — and about sharing it. • Agency archive: your machines can deliver their corpus to a shared archive that a whole team can query. Entity corrections made on one machine travel there too. • Clean summaries: site furniture — subscription pitches, cookie notices, related-link lists — no longer ends up in summaries. Live blogs and live tickers are extracted for what they contain, instead of being mistaken for their headline. • Honest dates: the real publication date is recovered when the source provides it, and uncertain cases are flagged rather than presented as certain. • Videos in an article are recognised and open in the platform's own app. • Images at full size: a full-screen viewer, an image details page, and better cropping in widgets and the editorial. • Correcting an entity: rename it, change its type, or link it to the right reference page — and the correction sticks. • Search inside Settings and inside source management, instead of scrolling. • A story can become a structured document, ready to read and export. • Fixed: a purchase you already made is recognised again.

Version 1.6 — your news becomes a file. • YOUR STORIES. Name a subject you follow; it fills itself (a rule of entities and keywords) and gathers far more than articles: your links, your documents, your notes, and an iCloud folder visible in Files and the Finder. A monthly calendar shows the subject's rhythm — the days it is discussed, and the days it goes quiet. • FOLLOW, SPLIT, FIND AGAIN. Follow a story and you are told when an article joins it. A subject that started covering two things splits into two files. And in the list, articles from one file fold under a single card — “this subject moved, here is by how much” — so the rest of the day stays visible. • A REPORT TO TAKE AWAY. In one move, the story becomes a written, illustrated document, grouped by theme, saved to your iCloud folder and readable in another app. • THE MUSIC OF A SUBJECT. Artists, albums and soundtracks mentioned in a file, matched in Apple Music and playable from the story itself. • CORRECT AN ENTITY. A misidentified person, two records for one name, a wrong type: you fix it, and the fix applies to articles already read as well as to the next ones. Always undoable. • PERSONAL NOTES. On an article, an entity or a story — with formatting, preview and diagrams. It is the one part of the corpus the app will never write for you, and nothing deletes it. • REGENERATE. A poor summary, a page badly fetched: rerun the processing for one article, one source or a period. The work is done by the device that feeds the corpus — often your Mac. • DISMISS AN ARTICLE. It leaves the corpus and does not come back, even if its source republishes it. Reversible. • SOURCE HEALTH. A screen tells you which sources answer, which have gone silent and which changed address — a “mute” source answers normally but no longer publishes. • WHAT THE APP DID. An activity screen, day by day, tells you what was fetched, summarised, translated or cleaned up — and by which device. Recent errors come first, not buried. • AN INTERFACE THAT EXPLAINS ITSELF. Every setting and every action now carries its explanation, permanently, right next to it: what it does, what it costs, and whether it can be undone. • IN YOUR LANGUAGE, FROM THE VERY FIRST LAUNCH. The app now follows your device's language without being asked: summaries, translations and interface arrive in French, English, Spanish, German or Italian. And if you would rather read the news in a language other than your iPhone's, that choice is one tap away in the settings.

Version 1.5 — iPad and Apple Watch take the stage, more polish everywhere. • First-class iPad: a true three-column layout (sources, list, reading), immersive landscape reading, large widgets and adjustable text size. • Richer Apple Watch: face complications — unread articles, today's editorial, latest article, "Heating up" (the surging topic), the news pulse and your followed topics — plus notifications with a wrist-friendly summary. • Editorial of the day on screen: the daily briefing now appears at the top on iPhone, iPad and Mac. • Reading continuity: pick up an article on another device with a single gesture (Handoff). • Hide an entity: a person or organization you don't care about disappears everywhere, across all your devices, and is no longer detected. Reversible anytime. • Fuller reading of sites: more articles fetched in full, with their image — for better summaries. • Apple TV: the "person of the day" card with portrait and description. Plus many refinements: scrolling smoothness, battery life, widget and sync reliability.

Version 1.4 — Apple TV, sharing and automatic upkeep. • Apple TV: meet the "person of the day" — between articles, a card highlights someone in the news (photo, number of articles, a description you can scroll with the remote). • Open the source: a button opens the article in its original app when possible (YouTube, Mastodon, Bluesky…); on Apple TV, scan the QR code to keep reading on your device. • Live updates: current processing shows in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. • Share: an article's places map is now attached to the share sheet, next to the photo. • Automatic upkeep: the "Data Provider" Mac cleans up entities on its own every night, never getting in the way of iCloud sync. • Stability: fixes for unexpected quits on the server Mac and fewer disk writes.

Version 1.3 — social sources, translation and reliability. • New sources: add Mastodon / Fediverse accounts (via @handle@instance), Bluesky, YouTube channels and podcasts. Paste a site's address and the app auto-detects its feeds. • Polished social posts: the profile photo becomes the source icon, the image is pulled from the post or the page it shares, and an elegant banner appears when there's no image. • Translation: download language modules from Settings or the welcome screen; on iPhone, translation now continues in the background. • More stable iPhone: greatly reduced memory footprint in "Data Provider" mode — no more unexpected quits. • Apple TV: more reliable account switching and better display of social posts. • Many fixes: summaries, entities, images and sync.

Version 1.2 — performance and polish. • Much smoother "Data Provider" mode on iPhone and iPad: optimized background processing, judder-free scrolling and lower power use. • More responsive menus and settings (interface language, content language, keyword rules) — no more sticky menus. • More reliable article translation. • Apple TV: multi-user support — each profile (iCloud account) sees its own news. Improved image framing (subject better centered). • Mac: full keyword-rule management (AND / OR / EXCEPT) via the built-in MCP server — list, create, edit and delete. • Stability and sync-reliability fixes.
