After initially launching a limited test of its News tab feature, Reddit is bringing the update to most users of its iOS app today in a wider beta rollout.
Naturally, the platform shared the news in a Reddit post:
The News tab will appear in the top left corner of the app with users being able to customize what types of content will show up. Reddit says it has been thoughtful about how the new feature has been integrated including how it has evolved the News tab during the alpha with user feedback.
While the beta is only on iOS for now, the feature will be coming soon for desktops along with more specific news categories, and a way to see how different Reddit communities are engaging on the same stories. Users can continue to share feedback on the News tab via the announcement thread here.
Reddit for iOS is a free download from the App Store.
