If I navigate away from the Today/Home screen on my iPadOS, I can’t get back to it without killing the app and going back in. There has to be a better way? i.e., I go to one of my favorites, not clicking a story in the Today screen. That's obviously the back arrow.
i.e., on my iPhone I can do it in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen.

cvoisey,
That Sidebar would be how you return to the Today screen.
You tap on the Sidebar button and then tap on 'Today' which is normally positioned at the top of the Sidebar underneath the Search bar. The Sidebar will list other content, but the Today content you are looking for is at the top. If you tap it, it should then load the Today content on the main screen.
If there is something missing you are not seeing, feel free to leave feedback here so it gets to the appropriate team: Product Feedback - Apple
Take care.

Hey there cvoisey,
You'll want to use the Sidebar in order to navigate between the different content in the News app.
"Don't see the sidebar? Tap or click the Sidebar button
."
Continue with the guidance in Read the latest headlines with Apple News to help with navigating the app.
Take care!
This has nothing to do with that. Have you looked at your app? I just tried it on another iPad in an apple store yesterday. There is no link back to the Today screen.
On iOS, it is in the bottom toolbar. On the iPad, there is none, it is the sidebar, which links you to Favorites, Local News, etc. You can NOT go back to the Today screen. It's a design flaw.
Hello cvoisey,
If you don't see the Sidebar button from there, let's try some basic troubleshooting as it is expected to be there.
First, close the News app with these steps: Close an app on your iPad – Apple Support
Then open News again to see if you see the Sidebar as expected.
We also recommend restarting your device and keeping it updated as those steps assure you have cleared out any minor software issues and are running the most current version.
Restart your iPad - Apple Support
Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
If you still have questions, reach out to Apple Support directly, as this may require closer guidance: Get Support
Cheers!
Hi cvoisey,
Based on the troubleshooting that has been completed up to this point, contacting Apple Support directly is the best way to investigate this further. You can use the link here to get started.
Take care.
This does not answer the question. I want to go back to the Today screen, not other content. This seems like a serious design flaw.
You are incorrect. This is not there. There is no option to go back. Please look for yourself before advising about something that doesn't exist.
How do you get back to News Today Home Screen on iPad?
