Apple News Plus was launched last week by the Apple company, and according to the first information about the service, it seems that the adoption rate among iDevice/Mac users is decent. More precisely, in the first two days after the launch of Apple News Plus, 200.000 people subscribed to read the content offered by the Apple company.
Apple News Plus offers all users the opportunity to use the service in a trial period, so that people take advantage of what is offered to them at the moment. The figure is higher than the one recorded for the Texture platform, which Apple bought specifically to launch Apple News Plus this year, so some say the launch is a success.
Apple News Plus it does not inspire a lot of confidence for content creators, who are reserved in terms of the success that the platform will have in the end. The Apple company managed to convince a large number of content creators to offer their creations for Apple News Plus, but it remains to be seen how many want to stay on the platform if they don't make money.
The marketing event seems to have accomplished its goal. More than 200,000 people subscribed to Apple News Plus in its first 48 hours — more than Texture had amassed at its peak, according to two people with knowledge of the figures who asked not to be named to discuss confidential information.
Apple News Plus it is currently offered only in the USA and Canada, the Apple company focusing only on publications in English, because it has a choice. No one knows if Apple News Plus will ever be offered in other countries, but it is likely that Apple is also working to expand its availability to other languages around the world.
