If all you need is an Apple word processor, Mac Pages can handle everything you will probably ever need to do.
The number one advantage is that because the apps are designed for Mac, they work fast and integrate with all your other Apple tools. I have used Pages documents and Numbers for Mac almost every day for over ten years on my Apple laptops. But Apple Pages on an iPad is great for a quick edit or writing when you are traveling. I have never found a lot of use for the Pages app for iOS on an iPhone. Then in 2017, Apple finally made all three apps free on the Mac App Store for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. However, you could get the apps for free when you bought a new Mac computer. The pricing dropped to $19.99 for each app on a Mac and $9.99 for an iOS device.Īt the same time, the release of iWork for iCloud became available. Later, in 2014, Apple released a new version. But at that time, it cost $79.00 for the suite of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. I have used every version of Pages, the Apple word processor app, since Apple released it in 2009.
