Priced at $12.99 per month or $129 annually, this bundle provides access to six premium creative applications, including Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, and Pixelmator Pro on Mac and iPad. Additional software like Motion, Compressor, and MainStage enhances the multimedia experience on Mac systems. Expected to be available from January 28, all new subscribers can enjoy a complimentary one-month trial.
Key Highlights of the Apple Creator Studio Bundle:
– Offers premium content for iWork apps: Keynote, Pages, and Numbers.
– Special educational pricing at $2.99 per month or $29.99 per year for college students and educators.
– Integration of advanced features across applications, including new capabilities in Final Cut Pro, such as Transcript Search and Beat Detection, as well as enhancements in Logic Pro.
Apple is also bringing Pixelmator Pro, which it acquired in 2024, to iPad users, offering robust editing tools with full Apple Pencil support for effortless image manipulation. Creator Studio further simplifies workflow through tools in Motion for motion graphics and Compressor for customized output settings.
Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, emphasized that the Creator Studio empowers creators to refine their skills by facilitating access to powerful, user-friendly tools that enhance video editing, music production, and visual creativity.
Subscribers will benefit from a “Content Hub” in Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, which provides access to high-quality visuals and new templates, along with innovative features for generating presentations and streamlining data management.
Despite the launch of the subscription, Apple will continue offering its creative apps, including Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro, as standalone purchases on the Mac App Store, while free versions of Keynote, Pages, and Numbers will remain available to users.
