This update is mostly a bug fix release, just stuff we have tinkered with, and things we have adjusted, all of which are too boring to talk about, but, rest assured they will make your experience marginally better... every little helps as they say. Although, if you do love an account creation process, then we have done some UI/UX work to make those much slicker and those things you can see.

We have another release for you that goes a long way to improving the experience in our App. If you used a larger font size in articles and found the app was crashing because of it, then that should happen no more, we squashed that bug! We also improved our comment count, and even added Google Sign in, so you can use the same account on our website and in the app too. For our puzzle lovers, we have an all new puzzles screen to make finding them much easier. We have some exciting things on the horizon so stay tuned for more.

We’ve promised you a big update for some time, and now it’s finally here. Check out the highlights below.
• Design: All new navigation and design including our new branding.
• Home Feed: The news is now listed in sections to make your reading experience even easier. Plus you can skip to your favourite sections.
• My News: A brand new tab that allows you to create your own personalised news feed by adding your favourite topics. You can also see your saved articles and followed columnists.

We would like to say we are back with a bang for this release, but for most of you, this is just a mere maintenance release that fixes some bugs, and has some behind-the-scenes updates… you know, the yawn-inducing stuff. However, for those of you who love a full-screen image, then we have an all-new gallery experience just for you! Galleries now offer thumbnails of upcoming images, and have more gesture controls, among other cool things for you to enjoy while you pinch and zoom!

This one is a big release! Not only are we back with new features, but we fixed some annoying bugs too, here are the highlights:

Discover is under going a make over, and in this release sees the first of some new UI changes. Your followed authors and tags are displayed in a whole new way to make discovering new articles even easier. This is just the first step in a bunch of updates that we have coming for Discover in future.

We have also fixed a bunch of bugs including one for iPad, which puts the close icon back in its rightful place after it went walk about. Also you can no longer include spaces in your Display Name for commenting, and we have fixed a bunch of other smaller UI and code bugs to give this release its well earned 8.2 release number.

A shiny new update is what this is. Included in this one are some rather important bug fixes and clean up around the app. Also we are introducing the ability to delete your account directly from within the app. A word of caution, if you use your account with other Reach publications, deleting an account in one place, will delete it everywhere.

As promised, we are back with a big update! So what goodies do we have for you this time?

1. Sync! If you love to save articles and follow topics, you can now access them both across all of your Apple devices!

2. Offline Reading! We have improved the offline reading experience so you can read your favourite articles wherever you are!

3. Speed! Yes, we have overhauled the entire apps under-pinnings and you should notice a lot of improvements in performance around your reading experience!

We aren’t finished though, the team is working on some rather cool personalisation features, so stay tuned for more to come in future releases!

Here is a mighty fine maintenance update that resolves some issues a very small group of users were seeing.

Have you been logged in and tried to view the comments, only for them to simply not appear? If you did, then we believe that annoying bug has now been fixed. We also fixed some other minor issues and cleared out a few cobwebs.

We’ll be back soon with a far more interesting update… honest.

This release is all the boring stuff you don’t care about… architecture changes, platform changes, bug fixes… all very exciting for a developer, but for us mere mortals, all a bit meh! Fear not, we have some big changes in the pipeline, so stay tuned, the next one should be far more fun for us normal folk!

This release has a lot of under the hood changes, mainly fixing stability issues a small number of users were seeing. You will also notice some UI tidying here and there around accessibility, fonts and other components in the app. We have added a new comments section to the footer, to make it easier to jump right into comments at the end of an article.

Also, on the commenting front, we know a lot of you have issues with the current version, but please bear with us, we are going to be bringing a whole new native experience very soon. It’s a huge task but we are closing in now on a launch, so keep an eye out for future updates.

This release is a bug fix update to keep your experience as smooth as possible. We will be back soon with a much bigger update. #StaySafe

New for this release: Home screen Widgets!

Yes, you can now add your very own news widget to the home screen to live with all your apps.

You can even have multiple versions of the widget side by side, running different news topics and at different sizes!

We have also included some behind the scenes fixes and upgrades to keep your experience silky smooth.

This update marks a big change for User Accounts and Commenting going forward in order to address a number of issues. In this release, we have updated the user accounts back end, what does this mean for you?
• You will be automatically logged out of your account upon installation, so you will need to log back in again. We are sorry for the small inconvenience but it is a necessary step to ensure your data security. If you don't remember your login details, you can use the "Forgot Password" feature to reset it.
• Commenting on articles is temporarily suspended. This feature is getting a huge overhaul, and will be turned back on again as soon as possible, we are very sorry but this is just unavoidable at this time due to the new user account security.
Also in this update is a fix for a small number of users that have been experiencing battery drain while the app is not being used. We will continue to monitor this issue going forward, if you are still experiencing battery drain in the background with this release, please use the in app feedback to get in touch.

We have added a new feature in this shiny new release:

"Manage Your Storage". This will allow you to free up valuable room on your device, as well provide you a way to remove saved content much faster. You can find this feature in the My Account section.

As always, we included some fixes and behind the scenes work preparing the app for future updates.

This update is very much a maintenance release, fixing some issues and laying some foundations for future updates.

- This update provides some much needed back end changes to make your experience faster and more robust

Happy New Year! So, we would like to announce a huge new update to kick off 2020, but this one is just a boring old bug fix release. Fear not readers, the code heads are beavering away on some shiny new things, so stay tuned.

This update is all about fixing things, our little elves have been busy behind the scenes sorting out a lot of things that were wonky.

• Lots of minor fixes here and there, too many to mention and mostly only the developers understand.

Here is a super fast update, to fix a known iOS 13.1 issue. So if you have been browsing an article and suddenly you were whisked off to a whole new page without consciously tapping a link... then this build is for you, because we stopped that. Now browsing and tapping is what you would expect. Sweet!

We have made some more improvements to the app to help with your experience.

• Dark Mode for iOS 13 now works in tandem with your devices dark mode setting, but can also still be on/off independently.
• We updated the tablet view for Discover and made some minor tweaks for the iPhone view while we were at it.
• At the bottom of articles we added a list of all the tags associated with that story so you can find related content more easily.
• Speaking of the bottom of an article everything there, now loads with a snap, no more waiting for content to load.

We also improved some additional minor UI elements and fixed some bugs as well. Nice!

We have a big update for you today, here are just some of the highlights:

• Dark Mode! Yep we support iOS13 Dark Mode setting! If you don't have iOS 13, you can still use dark mode by setting it manually in the app under the "My Account" tab.
• Saving a Tag! Finding related content using tags is great, but now you can save your favourite tags to get to that content even faster.
• Discover Updates! Access your saved Tags and saved Authors from the Discover view and we also gave Discover a quick lick of paint too.
• Stability improvements across the board, especially for legacy iOS devices.
• Many smaller UI and code improvements to make your experience better.

We have even more in the pipeline as well, exciting times, so stay tuned!
