Turn Off Apple News Notifications on an iPhone 11 can be handled directly on a current iPhone, although some menu names have changed since older iOS versions. The steps below focus on the current interface and note important differences where they matter.
Steps to use the current setting
- Open Settings.
- Tap Notifications.
- Tap News.
- Turn Allow Notifications off, or customize the alert types you want to keep.
If you only want fewer News alerts, adjusting categories or notification options is preferable to disabling every notification.
What to know
These instructions are written for current iPhone software rather than preserving an outdated model-specific path. If your device runs an older iOS release, the same feature may appear one level higher in Settings or use slightly different wording.
You can also leave notifications enabled while disabling sounds or Lock Screen alerts. That approach keeps less intrusive News notifications available in Notification Center.
If the feature is unavailable, confirm the iPhone is running the newest software it supports. Some controls also depend on the installed app version, carrier, region, or iPhone hardware, so an option shown on one device may legitimately be absent on another.
