Top News
Want to get the most important stories of the day? Our top news sections keep you in-the-know with a curated section of content and a great new display. When you're ready to read something, the new "card-style" interface is hard to beat. Top News is a curated news feed that allows you to read deeper into any story to get more information or just skim the headlines to stay on top of what's going on. For up-to-the-minute breaking news, this is where you get information valuable to you.

Control what you want to see by personalizing your sections. Choose topics and locations you care about and get a curated news feed showing you what you want to know. From Life, Food and Travel to all the Weather news you need, our app provides you the best experience. Take control over what you see, from celebrities to sports teams. Hit the settings button on the bottom right and then pick your topics.

Explore
Browse through all the day's stories on a wide range of topics and locations. Choose from categories such as weather, entertainment, and politics. You can 'star' topics and locations in the upper right-hand corner of each explore card. This opts you into notifications so you'll never be left craving an interesting article to read. To look through the Explore section, scroll left-right to move between articles on a topic, or up to find new topics. Did a story spark your interest? Click on the headline for a full-screen view.





Alerts
Based on topics and locations you choose, our alerts keep you on top of what's going on. That means push notifications that surface the stories most relevant to your interests and locations, delivered as fast as possible. To control notifications, select Settings. Next, tap Manage Notifications. From here, you can choose what kinds of stories will generate an alert.
