The Apple News app and the Apple News Plus subscription have both been around for a few years now and while the app is free and preinstalled on all iPhones, iPads, and Macs, the subscription very much isn't. It costs $12.99 per month for access to magazines and newspapers, and it turns out that it's surprisingly popular.
Apple has long aimed to move its revenue from slowing hardware sales to perpetual services income and Apple News Plus is one success story that many of us might not have expected. At $12.99 per month, it is among Apple's most expensive subscriptions, but new figures suggest that people can't get enough of it.
