There are two versions of the BBC News app, both are named "BBC News".

The UK version (featuring the new BBC News block logo):
apps.apple.com 

The international version:
apps.apple.com 

As far as I know, the international version doesn't have push alerts for domestic UK stories, such as your weekly reminder to tune in to "Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg".

Maybe someone here with a VPN can try install both versions of the app and tell us the differences in push alerts~

Ah, so because I have the UK App Store on my phone I’ve got the UK version of the app - the icon has three blocks. Didn’t realise there were two versions of the app.  Guess the fix for me is to turn off notifications. 

Thanks everyone
