Apple recently launched a new section on its website, ‘Apps by Apple,’ detailing an expansive range of apps designed to operate seamlessly across its devices. The new webpage serves as a comprehensive guide to Apple’s own app ecosystem, emphasizing their focus on accessibility, privacy, and security.
The webpage highlights the new updates coming to Safari this fall with the release of iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma. These will include features such as profiles, web apps, and enhanced Private Browsing, promising a more secure and faster browsing experience.
Apple’s Messages app is also set for a refresh, with features like search filters, a catch-up arrow, audio message transcriptions, and a revamped Stickers experience. These updates will roll out with the upcoming iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma releases.
The new Final Cut Pro for iPad is described as a “touch-first interface with a set of powerful tools designed for video creators looking for portability.” Similarly, Logic Pro for iPad aims to offer advanced tools for musicians on the move, featuring intuitive controls tailored for a touch-first interface.
The page features a slew of other apps designed to keep users connected, creative, and productive. From the classic Phone and Messages apps to GarageBand and iMovie, Apple emphasizes the end-to-end encryption and privacy features integral to its app ecosystem.
The ‘Apps by Apple’ webpage also highlights productivity tools such as Notes, Reminders, and Calendar, along with real-time collaboration features in apps like Pages and Numbers. All are designed to work across Apple’s range of devices, including Mac, iPad, iPhone, and Apple Watch.
For entertainment, the company showcases apps like Apple TV, Apple Music, and Apple Arcade, highlighting exclusive content and high-quality audio and video experiences. Smart home control capabilities are also covered through the Home app.
The health and fitness section outlines apps such as Apple Health and Fitness, providing organized access to health data, trainer-guided workouts, and tracking for a variety of health metrics.
Last but not least, the webpage describes key built-in features like Siri (which needs a major overhaul) and iCloud, which come with robust privacy measures. Apple also showcases CarPlay, which allows for a smarter and safer in-car iPhone experience.
Apple continues to tout its app ecosystem as a major reason for people to use its devices, including the iPhone, iPad and Mac. It’s tough to leave once you’ve made your way into the Apple ecosystem, that’s for sure.
