managed users will not be able to use it until we have a mechanism to remove news completely from accounts which choose to remove it. Managed user accounts are generally used for children’s accounts and many folks do not want their young children watching news because of possible subject matter.
That makes sense then. I only use the main account to manage plex. I have my own profile for actual viewing. I do this because I don’t like having to enter my PIN every time I switch back to my profile. I assumed it would be just another setting for managed accounts to turn it on. Hopefully it comes to managed accounts some day. Maybe by then any kinks will have been worked out.

Same reason here, my main account is primarily for managing plex while I have a managed user that we use to actually view/listen to the content. Hopefully live tv wont fall under the same restrictions when it launches for the Roku platform.
I have PlexPass. On iOS, News does not show up on “Discover” or “Browse”. If I hit the menu button (3 lines on upper left corner of screen), the News feature shows up at the bottom. Is there any way to include this in the “Browse” feature![]

FAQ on this says All users will have access by Friday, September 29 (Pacific Time).
its 9 pm 9-30 and Plex news is on none of the supported apps… not on my iPad or iPhone or AppleTV or Roku …
ETA found it like the commenter zyprexa above - only in the hamburger menu at the very bottom of the list. under the long list of library items - not the most intuitive place to find this. but after the other comments i agree… its not the best thought out. i cant figure out how to decide WHICH news outlets I want to include. so i am kinda glad its hidden.
