Apple News app in iOS 9: US-specific application can be accessed by users around the world

Technology giant Apple, which recently released the public version of the iOS 9 operating system, has eliminated the ageing Newsstand app and introduced the brand-new Apple News application. The down-side of this app is that it is only available for users in the US.

However, even as the company has plans to officially release Apple News in other countries in due course of time, a workaround has been spotted, which can help users outside of the US experience the latest app on iOS 9. Follow the steps below to access the news app.

How to access Apple News app in iOS 9:

Step 1: Navigate to Settings on the device

Step 2: Select General sub-menu

Step 3: Tap on Language and Region sub-menu

Step 4: A list of geographical regions are displayed, choose United States

Step 5: Tap Done

Step 6: Select Continue, when pop-up message appears

Step 7: Save changes made in step 4.

Close Settings and navigate to the Home screen and the Apple News app should appear on your device. Those who have upgraded to iOS 9 and can access the latest app outside of the US, can let us know about it in our comments section below.
