Hi everyone,

 

wanted to know if there's a way to get instant notifications to my phone from "What's New" section? Who could help?

Yes. The what’s new section has an RSS-function. You could use an app that supports RSS feeds.

But how to find a valid RSS feed link?

[On the huh]

At one time there was a button to subscribe to the RSS feed.  It's gone now.

If you use an app such as FEEDLY, it will find the appropriate link for you.

Yes, I remember that too.

Thank you, I found the "What's New" section in English there. But, as I understand, this function is not available in all languages? Because I didn't find it in Lithuanian.

The feature to subscribe RSS feed feature is still available by using this link:

 

JW.ORG—What’s New

https://www.jw.org/en/whats-new/rss/WhatsNewWebArticles/feed.xml

 

In order to receive RSS feeds in other languages, simply change the /en/ part of the url into your approriate language code. For example, Lithuanian is jw.org/lt. So change /en/ into /lt/ in order to receive RSS feeds subscriptions.

 

Note that the above url does not work on its own. You will need an app (such as one mentioned by @Thesauron) that will convert the URL, and deliver the feed to your device for you. Put the above link into that app.

 

Also, this will send out all notifications for What’s New news articles, and that includes articles for new books, magazines and music releases. However, it does not include new video releases and “Breaking News alert” news articles.

You can use a telegram bot to do that 

 

for example someone made this telegram channel using a bot to auto-post the english feed: @jw_org

Maybe you can explain how to insert such a bot into new channel? I want to create it in Lithuanian.
