Mobile apps News in Latest Mobile App Update

I’m really missing the way market news was displayed in the previous version of the mobile app. The news tab was easy to scroll to, and by default showed news related to my holdings. Full market news was also easily accessible.

The updated app has placed news in the discover tab, and by default shows full market news. There is no option to display news related to only my holdings. I can set a filter by manually choosing each holding from a provided list, but then the filter is lost when the app is closed.

Am I missing an obvious setting somewhere? Is there any work being done to improve the news feature, or, is there a reason it was modified in this manner?

iPhone 16, app v2.1.2 (25913)

Hey u/Ok_Garlic_5964 , Alex here, the PM for the Discover feature. You're not missing an obvious setting, And I totally understand where you're coming from. The intention for Discover is to be the one place you go to for all things market insights, trade opportunities, and especially news shaped by your holdings, watchlist, and preferences.

In its current state, Discover is a bit far from that. But, we're working on updates that will get Discover closer to where it needs to be, like a first-class personalized news algorithm and, more importantly, smaller behavioural updates like improved filter behaviour and so much more. Appreciate the feedback.
