Apple News Fails to Load After iOS 18.2 Installation

Apple News fails to load after iOS 18.2 install on 7 Gen iPad. Tried deleting and reinstalling news app, resetting network settings, pausing VPN, and a full reset, all without success. Any tips would be appreciated.

Same exact problem on iPad after 18.2 upgrade - mine is a paid Apple News account. Has anyone heard of a resolution to this bug?

I too have family plan and it’s just not worth the money to wait when there’s other free news alternatives for the time being. I’m taking advantage the failure-to-launch to broaden my news-feed horizons.


If they are not going to support the app on iPad 7th generation then say so, but, it’s been a month now and the update didn’t fix it. The best way to get their attention is going to be through a mass exodus of money. I hope you reconsider and cancel. What’s the next app they only half-*** support and charge us for?

Fixed it!!! I tried all these other things and it turned out to be incredibly simple. I called Apple News and talked to a supervisor. She had me scroll to the left screen where the Apple News display had been. Then I pressed down. And went to Edit in upper left corner. Then add Widget. Search for News. Scroll past topic, and keep scrolling till you see the full Apple News layout. Select. And Voila. It is there. I cannot believe it.
