New for Pages, Numbers and Keynote on Mac and iOS: YouTube integration, iBooks Author support

Apple has decided to burn a few servers tonight. After the public beta of iOS 14 and others, after the GM of iOS 13.6 and all its band, how about a big update for the Mac versions of Pages, Numbers and Keynote. The word processor and spreadsheet support the integration of YouTube and Vimeo videos. It’s also easier to add captions and titles to images, videos, shapes, and other objects.

The presentation tool includes a new option to start playing a slideshow in a window. Useful for keeping access to other applications during a presentation. Still in Keynote, movies can be played between two transitions. Pages is more flexible with formulas and iBooks Author file import now works – it was expected, knowing that iBooks Author is at the end of life.

Update – On iOS, Pages, Numbers and Keynote welcome the same new features, except iBooks Author support in the mobile version of Pages.
