Newsstand folder

So with the iOS9 update they removed Newsstand. I read that if you used Newsstand with iOS8, a Newsstand folder would be created with all your magazines etc. in it. I didn't use the Newsstand a lot, I think the last time I used it was in iOS7 but it still had magazines in it that I bought, quite a few actually but I didn't get the folder created. How can I access these now? Have they just gone??

Newsstand is no longer on the iPhone. You can still use the same apps, however. Newsstand was basically just a dedicated folder. Simply redownload the apps you had in it.

What happened to Newsstand?

If you used Newsstand with iOS 8, the app will become the Newsstand folder when you update to iOS 9. The folder will keep your existing magazine and newspaper apps, and you’ll be able to move and organize it like any other folder.When you download a new newspaper or magazine app from the App Store, it will appear alongside your other apps on the Home screen.

What about my existing content and subscriptions?You’ll still have your Newsstand magazines and newspapers, and your subscriptions will continue.

is this honestly your answer to the question?


you reposted a nugget of information that in a vague, abstract sort of way--may or may not relate to the original question. I can't tell if you're joking or if you're under the impression the info you referenced is sufficient.


we can all read the apple release notes, we don't need it repro'd here. if you know something the rest of us don't please enlighten us.
