To change your News settings on the Google News app, follow these steps:

1. Open the Google News app on your device. You can find the app icon on your home screen or in the app drawer.

2. Once the app is open, look for your profile picture or initial in the top right corner of the screen. Tap on it to access your profile settings.

3. In the profile settings menu, you will see an option called “News settings.” Tap on this option to proceed.

4. Inside the News settings menu, you will find several options that you can customize according to your preferences. Let’s explore some of the key settings you may want to change:

A. Language: You can select your preferred language for news articles. Tap on the “Language” option and choose the language you prefer from the list.

B. Editions: This option allows you to select the geographical edition of news you want to see. For example, if you prefer to read news from a specific country or region, you can choose it here.

C. Interests: In this section, you can customize the topics and categories of news that you are interested in. Tap on “Interests” and you will see a list of suggested topics. You can select or deselect topics based on your preferences.

E. Data and storage: This option allows you to manage your data usage and storage preferences. You can choose whether to load images and videos over Wi-Fi only, or allow them to load on mobile data as well. Additionally, you can clear your app cache and manage other storage settings in this section.

5. Once you have made the desired changes to your News settings, simply exit the settings menu. The app will automatically save your preferences, and you will start seeing news articles based on your customized settings.
