Public beta and news app

[jmmo20]

Hi
I have installed the public beta successfully. However the news app is nowhere to be found. Did they not include it with this beta?
That's one the major reasons I wanted to try the beta!!!!
Cheers.

Where do you live?

The News app appears to be available only to U.S. users for the time being.

You can go settings > general > region > US and then restart your device to get the news app. I have not tried this myself as I live in the US but I seen some where here on the forum that works. Worth a shot.

I'll try but it was my understanding that news would be available in the us uk and Australia from the beginning?

It should be when iOS 9 officially launches. Remember this is just a beta.

It seems it's not in this beta. I changed to US but news is still missing.

Have you tried restarting? If There is still no news app after restarting, I think you should expect news app not available in PB, because my DP3 does have one when I switch region to US.
By the way, I am in Australia .
