Apple news app keeps crashing

Hi SH_SR,

We'd like to help share some guidance on finding a solution for your Apple News app not working as intended. You came from a great article that directly relates to issues like you are describing. In addition to that, we recommend making sure you have the latest update following Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.

2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.

3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.

4. If you see more than one software update option available, choose the one that you want to install.

If you have updated and followed the guidance in the article, your next best step is to contact Apple Support

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

This issue persists and with the release of OS 16.1.1 has got worse.

I suggest reviewers/posters report this to Apple.  Apple support seems inappropriate so I advise using Product Feedback - Apple The Feed Back site allows input with respect to hardware products, iOS & iPad OS, Mac OS Apps, iCloud and lastly SERVICES.  The latter includes APPLE NEWS.  It is more appropriate to report an obvious bug with the App/iOS than using Official Apple Support who will only talk you through the list of “suggestions” which we have all tried in any case.

Is anyone from Apple listening? Or is this just futile commiseration?

On my MacBook air, Apple news keeps crashing......

I have closed it and re opened, I have deleted it and re loaded, I have rebooted each time, but it still keeps crashing.

No other programme crashes, nothing else is affected, everything else works as it should.

But Apple news keeps crashing if I am using it and when it is on in the background.

Is there an alternative

Mine was fine until I downloaded iOS 16.2 (a few days ago). Now it freezes after I share a story to social media (typically Facebook) - every time, without fail. I have to close/reopen the app to solve the problem. This is extremely annoying and disappointing. I’m looking for an alternative (app).
