Posted by at 10:01 am on March 28, 2018

Apple has updated is entire suite of iWork productivity apps for iPhones, iPads, and Mac devices. The changes primarily tackle educational use of these apps and focus on bringing new features to Apple’s mobile devices.

Now the apps now allow people to draw, write, or annotate documents using the Apple Pencil on supported iPads or with your finger.

A new Smart Annotation tool lets people add comments and marks that remain anchored to the text as files are shared via iCloud and/or Box. iWork adds digital book templates, the ability to add an image gallery, and new paragraph and character styles.

People can use presenter mode to read and auto-scroll text while giving a speech, while iWork now lets people view pages side-by-side as they work, or turn on facing pages to format documents as two-page spreads.

Other new tools include master pages to keep design consistent across layouts, instant document reorientation (landscape/portrait), editable shapes, donut charts, conditional highlighting, and fraction formatting.

The iWork apps, which include Pages, Keynote, and Numbers, are free to download from the iTunes and Mac App Stores.
