Apple seems to add a new “Food” section to Apple News+ with its iOS 18.4 and iPados 18.4 updates, which are expected to be released in April. It is worth noting that the Apple News service is not active in Turkey yet. Therefore, this new feature will only meet users in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. There is no information about when users in Turkey can benefit from this service. However, since it is known that Apple has opened content services to different markets over time, it is possible that it will be offered in new countries in the future.
The “Food” section, which will be added to the Apple News+, attracts attention with a wide recipe archive. Apple, in this section Bon Appétit, Food & Wine, Serious EATS And Allrecipes announced that it will provide recipes from well -known food platforms. Users will be able to choose from a comprehensive catalog with new recipes added every day. Each of the recipes will be presented in a format where the necessary materials are listed and detailed step -by -step instructions. In addition, thanks to the special interface designed by Apple, recipes can be displayed in full screen mode.
Apple makes access to recipes more user -friendly
Apple also includes recipe search and filtering options to improve the user experience. Users will be able to filter the recipes according to the type of food, the materials contained or the cooking time. In addition, the recording of recipes in accordance with offline access will also provide an important advantage. In this way, users will be able to access the recipes they want without the need for internet connection. This feature may be useful, especially for those who plan to cook in environments that are frequently traveling or without internet connections. At the same time, content selected by Apple News editors food suggestions, restaurant reviews and kitchen tips will be included in the platform.
Apple continues its strategy to diversify the digital content ecosystem. The company previously expanded its service range by offering interactive content such as puzzles and Sudoku to Apple News+ subscribers. Now, with recipes, it aims to make its platform more attractive. This is considered part of Apple’s effort to strengthen the subscription -based content model. The inclusion of a category that appeals to a large audience, especially recipes, can contribute to the company’s increase in the number of subscribers. On the other hand, Apple’s move will lead to direct competition with other platforms operating in the field of recipes.
Although Apple’s content offers in the field of recipes is rich, it should be remembered that there are important competitors in the sector. The New York Times‘s long -term Cooking application is appealing to a wide audience with its own subscription model in this field. Apple’s new feature seems to be a candidate to compete directly with this platform. There are also many free recipes sites and applications on the market. Therefore, Apple’s new dinner section will have to separate from its competitors in terms of experience and functionality.
Users who do not have Apple News+ subscribers will also be able to access a certain number of tariffs and food. This limited access model is seen as a method that Apple has developed to direct users to subscription. Apple says that the recipes section is only the beginning and that it plans to expand the content in this field in the following process. Depending on user feedback, it seems likely to add more kitchen tips, video content and interactive recipes to the platform. In addition, Apple is among the possibility that Apple offers artificial intelligence -supported suggestions or personalized recipe proposals in the future.
This new feature, which Apple integrated into iOS and iPados ecosystem, aims to create a comprehensive resource for recipes. Users will have the opportunity to improve their kitchen skills by accessing a wide range of content. Apple’s goal of strengthening the content subscription model is becoming more pronounced with such additional features. It seems that Apple will continue to make content -based services more attractive by investing in categories of masses such as recipes.
