Today alongside a big update to Final Cut Camera, Apple announced that it’s rolling out updated versions of Pages, Keynote, Numbers, Pixelmator Pro, and Freeform. Here’s what’s new.
Apple says that today’s updates bring support for asking Siri questions about Pages, Keynote, or Numbers and get answers. The updates also enable “the ability to request access to a shared presentation, document, or spreadsheet.” Pages for Mac has a new Screen View, and Numbers gets “new trigonometry, statistics, and logic functions.” For Apple Creator Studio subscribers, there are new templates and themes, plus intelligent slide generation in Keynote.
Pixelmator Pro on iPad adds Select and Mask tools previously Mac-exclusive. Both Mac and iPad apps gain two template collections for sports and action-centric projects, plus new templates for launching creative ideas. A new Podcasts category creates cover artwork sized for major podcast platforms.
Freeform gains boards that adapt to Dark Mode, folders for organization, and Writing Tools with Apple Intelligence to rewrite, proofread, and summarize handwritten notes. In visionOS 27, users can pull multiple items from a board into their space and view 3D models together as a group.
