The design has definitely been altered. When I first downloaded the update, I had a lot of trouble, so much so that I mistakenly believed the update to be completely broken. However, deleting the app and re-installing it seems to have remedied my problems.
I'm using an IPhone 5S so the description of the layout will be using this device's screen layout.
The design has changed so that now there is a menu of tabs across the bottom of the screen (going from left to right) labeled Cover Stories, Following, Search, Notifications, and Profile. You need to double tap the tab to select it. VO will let you know that it's been selected. When you are in the Profile tab, there will be three unlabeled buttons.
The one at the far left near the top of the screen should be Find People to Follow. The one on the right, near the top of the screen should be Settings. The third, which is in the center of the screen, just a tad lower down from the others should be labeled Edit Profile.
When you flip through sections with the three finger swipe up or down, you'll now need to make sure that you aren't on the menu bar. Otherwise, you'll encounter the infamous VO thunk and not accomplish your goal.
To switch to different sections (besides Cover Stories), you'll need to enter the Following tab and double tap on the section you want to read.
When in an article, I find it easiest to find the Back button and swiping right with a finger from there to get to the others such as Like, Comments, and so on. All of those are properly labeled.
To follow more topics, you can go to the Search screen and type something in or look at the topics they suggest. Knowing that you're actually subscribed to a topic is much clearer as it will say something like Following Healthy Eating.
The easiest way I have found to unfollow a topic is to go to the Following tab, find the topic, double tap on it, then select the button that states something like Following Healthy Eating. You will then be asked if you really want to Unfollow Healthy Eating. Alternatively, you can double tap and hold on a topic (which makes it draggable but VO doesn't tell you this, nor does it actually tell you where you're moving the topic in relation to everything else on the screen). You will then be able to swipe left to a button labeled Close X Small, which when double tapped, will allow you to Unfollow the topic. There will be a confirmation dialogue box so you won't accidentally Unfollow a topic you're actually interested in.
This became one of my favorite news apps and I was quite disappointed when I thought it had been broken, so I am glad I gave it another look and hope this hastily put-together overview helped.
