Perfect timing for some serious updates to iWork and iLife apps.
Pages AI to help you write. Generative artwork to go into Keynote slides. or to help with a GarageBand song.
It's been far too long since Software was what got people excited to buy Macs.
Does anyone even use iWork suite these days? Basically everyone I know uses Office or even Google Docs.
I use it too but I might use it more if Apple looked like they cared to update them. They used to make a big deal about their big software features. I don't really know what's been done since iWork '09. (as in "the year 2009"). Going web only in some Google Docs copy or adding AI tools might be worth talking about.
Hey the last update brought SVG support.
I swear it has a team of 2 people responsible for it or something. Pages and Keynote (Numbers is fine but will never be Excel for better or worse) are really great software and I wish they had more capital allocated to them.
