In their own words
Apple Pages
Apple Pages is a document app for writing, laying out, and designing documents on iOS, macOS, and the web. It includes Apple-designed templates for reports, resumes, posters, and digital books, and supports both word-processing and page-layout documents such as newsletters. Documents can contain images, video, audio, tables, charts, and shapes. Review tools include comments, threaded conversations, and change tracking. Pages can import and edit Microsoft Word and text files, then export to EPUB, Microsoft Word, RTF, TXT, or PDF. Collaboration works through iCloud or Box, while EndNote citation insertion is available on Mac. Pages for iCloud lets users create, edit, and share documents on iCloud.com using a computer. Core document creation, editing, and collaboration are free. Apple Creator Studio adds premium templates, royalty-free content, and intelligence features; it costs $12.99 a month or 129 USD per year after a one-month free trial. Some intelligence features require an Apple Intelligence-capable device and may have usage limits or restrictions.
