Image Playground isn’t a service, it’s a free local image generation model. But I’ll grant you that the News+ thing is kind of annoying. I wouldn’t call it a nag, though - it shows in the Settings anpp after you buy a new device that includes free months, while they’re still valid, then it goes away forever.

It actually stays, even after expired. Then if you tap the "two weeks free!" it says "expired, so sorry, but do want to pay us a slightly discounted rate instead of free?"

Then the alert went away.

Super scummy.

Source: happened a few months ago with the promo on my newish iphone 17 when I thought I'd try appletv out to watch pluribus.


This has not been my experience. I’ve never taken them up on any of those offers, and none of them are still visible in Settings on any of my devices.
