Numbers is the spreadsheet app and Keynote is the presentation app, with templates of their own. Apple lists all three as free on the App Store, with in-app purchases, and they run on iPhone, iPad and Mac.\n\nApple Creator Studio is a paid subscription that adds premium content and AI features in Keynote, Pages, Numbers and Freeform, alongside Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro and Pixelmator Pro. It has a separate rate for students and educators. The apps have no Windows version, so PC users work through iCloud.com. The suite suits Apple-only households and teams, while mixed-platform teams will want a suite that installs on Windows."
