Turn off video autoplay in the Google News feed
Google News autoplays video content on the news page, which can get distracting. You can turn it off or keep autoplay activated on Wi-Fi only.
1. Open News settings in Google News (check the steps in the first section).
2. Scroll down and tap Autoplay videos.
3. Select the radio button beside Wi-Fi only or Disabled.
Check full coverage of a story
If you want to catch full coverage by leading media houses on a specific news story, you can easily do so on Google News.
1. Start reading any story in Google News.
2. Tap the Full Coverage option.
3. Google News brings the same story from other media sources to read.
4. Alternatively, tap the Google News icon beside a news story to read the full coverage, so there's no need to open the story first.
Follow topics and save stories
Your routine may revolve around busy mornings, and you might not have adequate time to catch all the important stories first thing in the day. You can save news articles or topics that you wish to read at a later time.
1. Open a news story in Google News.
2. Tap the Save icon at the bottom (it looks like a ribbon).
3. Go back to the home screen and open the Following tab.
4. Scroll down to check your saved stories in chronological order.
