iOS 18.2 Beta: New Daily Sudoku Games Come to Apple News+

 

Apple News+ is once again expanding its collection of puzzles. With the release of iOS 18.2 beta 1, Apple News+ now offers daily sudoku puzzles across easy, moderate, and challenging difficulty levels. You can also track your sudoku performance right in the Apple News app.

 

The new puzzles were first spotted by Chris Carley yesterday on Threads. With the addition of sudoko, Apple News+ now offers daily puzzles for subscribers:

 

  • Sudoku (starting with iOS 18.2)
  • Quartlies (starting with iOS 17.5)
  • Crossword (starting with iOS 17)
  • Crossword mini (starting with iOS 17)

 

You can find the games in the News app by going to the “Following” tab and tapping the “Puzzles” option. It’s only available to Apple News+ subscribers, and Apple News+ is only available in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada. Apple News+ puzzles are even more limited in availability and are only available in the United States and Canada.

 

iOS 18.2 is currently in developer beta testing and is only available to phones that support Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and all iPhone 16 models). The update will likely be released to wider beta testers sometime in November and released to everyone in December.

 

9to5Mac’s Take

With the addition of sudoku games iOS 18.2, I will once again reiterate my request for Apple to redesign the Apple News app to make these puzzles more discoverable.

 

With the new Apple Sports app, do we still need a dedicated “Sports” tab in the Apple News app? At the very least, let me customize the toolbar to replace Sports with Puzzles.
