Hello Purple_puppy,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities! We understand you're not able to use your News app because of restrictions. We're happy to assist you with this.


Let's make sure your location is set properly in Settings > General > Language and Region > ensure ‘Region’ is set to the right country.

Next, check your content settings in Screen Time by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions:

Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Best Regards.
