Apple Pulls Keynote, Pages and Numbers From App Store

Apple has temporarily removed Keynote, Pages, and Numbers from the App Store, just after releasing an update that added iPhone Duo support and a new Intelligent Assistant.

Apple Creator Studio iWork suite
It is not clear if the apps were removed intentionally, or if it is a bug. Apple has not said when the apps will be reinstated, but if it was in error, they should return soon.

Update: The Mac versions are back without the new update. The iOS versions don't seem to have returned to the ‌App Store‌ yet.

Ironically, those are the first apps I remove from any new iPhone I get!

Youre missing out. Pages and Keynote 14.5 (not the new post-tahoe slop subscription versions) are miles ahead of office 365 in ease of use, speed, stability, etc.

Numbers is good too for simple stuff but doesnt have the technical power of excel
For me, Numbers and Pages are exactly what I need in a spreadsheet and word processor. When I changed from the Windows ecosystem to the Apple ecosystem, I kicked Office to the curb and haven't been happier.

The Keynotes, Pages, and Numbers app developers who added Duo support should wear this like a badge of honour ('https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-will-label-apps-made-for-iphone-duo-in-app-store.2492400/?post=34891228#post-34891228') 😜 šŸ˜‚

Maybe I am one of the few MacRumors users that actually likes (or tolerates) the iWork suite, even on iPadOS or iOS… because honestly there’s not much competition aside from Microsoft Word and a few dubious Chinese suites… although we can always use LibreOffice on the website, I guess.

I hope Apple doesn’t make us pay for the Creator’s Studio subscription for the base iWork apps…
