dl? cmplnts? in Apple News

+
+ +
+
+

I submitted this blog to Apple via News Publisher a few days after the WWDC keynote, just to get a feel for the submission process. It was easy; basically I just needed to provide an Atom 1.0 or RSS 2.0 feed, both of which I already have anyway.1 I was told at the end of the submission process that my submission would be reviewed.

Just now, quite surprisingly, I got the acceptance email from News Publisher:

The link to my channel appears to be

But at the time of writing, trying to open this page just turns up a "sorry, this item isn't available in Apple News". Not sure if the page hasn't been updated, or if I really need an iOS 9 device to access. My current guess is the former — there's no reason Apple won't provide a channel preview in good ol' HTML.2 I don't have an iOS 9 device yet, so I don't know how well my content, especially preformatted code blocks, will fare in News. Either way I won't adjust my content, but it would be fun to see the capabilities of Apple's official "RSS reader".

June 30, 2015 update: The page has been updated, and now the message makes much more sense:

+
+Apple News is coming soon. This channel or topic is only available in Apple News. +

Apple News is coming soon. This channel or topic is only available in Apple News.

  1. Of course my content isn't really optimized for the Apple News format, but why would I care.↩︎

  2. Or maybe they will only open up regular browser traffic after iOS 9 stable is released.↩︎
