It might not be good news to the Apple fans as Apple claimed to disable its Apple News service in mainland China. News resources from GSM Arena, Apple has completely disabled the application of Apple News in mainland China. Even though users use those devices made in America, they will have no access to read news via Apple News either.

Apple News application on iOS 9 only officially launched in United Stated. Except that users from mainland China and some other countries and regions, the others users do not get affected by this news. They can use the Apple News services as normal. Apple doesn’t explain why it disables the application of Apple News in mainland China.

Apparently, Apple directly disables this application might be a simpler way to its technical instead of checking each content inside Apple News application.

Apple firm previously disabled some services of its applications, such as it introduced a different version of Apple Maps from the ones in other countries as it uses different data in Chinese version. Users can only obtain the mapping information that have been approved by Chinese government in China via the Chinese Apple Maps, while the mapping information concerns worldwide regions become brief.

Instead of using Apple News, you can find some other resources to read international news. No confirmation from Apple when it will re-open this service in China.
