Pixelmator Pro, a company Apple bought in 2024, is also coming to iPad for the first time, bringing its editing tools to more creators. It includes full Apple Pencil support alongside fast image editing.
Apple Creator Studio also provides access to Motion, a motion graphics tool for creating 2D and 3D effects. It also includes Compressor, which works with Final Cut Pro and Motion to customize output settings for distribution.
“Apple Creator Studio is a great value that enables creators of all types to pursue their craft and grow their skills by providing easy access to the most powerful and intuitive tools for video editing, music making, creative imaging, and visual productivity — all leveled up with advanced intelligent tools to augment and accelerate workflows,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, in a press release.
In Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, a Creator Studio subscription unlocks a new “Content Hub” where users can find high-quality photos, graphics, and illustrations. Plus, there are new premium templates and themes in Keynote, Pages, and Numbers.
Apple Creator Studio gives users access to beta features in Keynote, including tools to generate presentation drafts from text outlines, create presenter notes from existing slides, and quickly clean up layouts and object placement. In Numbers, subscribers can generate formulas and automatically fill tables using pattern recognition with Magic Fill.
The tech giant notes that Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Motion, Compressor, and MainStage will continue to be available as one-time purchases on the Mac App Store, while free versions of Numbers, Pages, Keynote, and Freeform will remain available.
