- Apple has just launched an application that is about creating event invitations
- It includes Apple intelligence characteristics, such as the playground and writing tools.
- You can easily create a shared photo library with all the guests.
Apple has been making slow improvements but surely in its calendar application on all platforms (iOS, iPados and Macos, but if you expected an easy way to plan events within the ecosystem, your desire is granted.
In fact, it is a completely new application, called Apple Invites, and it is event planning. It is designed to be a unique window to create the invitation of the event, perhaps even using the Apple Intelligence playground to create the image, from configuring a description to building a guest list and sending invitations.
The application itself will be to create, send and receive invitations. Like the brief or avoids, it will allow people invited to confirm and see all the details of the event, while the host can cure the experience in the backend.
Icloud+ is a central part of this, since it needs it to send invitations and create an event. However, the incorporation of Apple’s invitations note that anyone can receive invitations. Therefore, why there is also a web interface for Apple’s invitations and that means that people with an Android phone can join the party.
However, Apple’s advantages are probably within the ecosystem. On the one hand, when you create an event within the iOS application, you will begin with a name and description. With any of these fields, you can use ‘writing tools’ to give life to your writing.
Then, taking into account that an event needs a photo or graphic, you can choose a three -the -song prejustment: emoji, photographic or colors), take a photo with the camera, select one of your library or jump directly to the image of games for games Make one with Apple intelligence.
Perhaps the most useful, however, you can create a shared album through ICLOUD photos when you create the event. In this way, you can solve the problem that all your guests send and share photos after the event. This can solve an important pain point, and could be very useful for a birthday or a graduation party, as well as a baby shower or an opening event of the house.
In addition, if it is a costume party or has a large and bold theme like the 80s, disc time, right? – You can also establish the mood and share some photos before the deadline. Although, truly, the victory here could be after the fact
Similar to a shared photo library, you can also create a Apple Music playlist that is useful to establish the scene, but also one that invited guests can use to add their favorites to the DJ mixture for the night.
Like the part and other applications that facilitate the place, Apple Invites will automatically help guests to obtain instructions once adding a location. According to the time and location, it will also give a preview of the expected climate.
Now, in terms of sending the invitations, you can select guests of your contacts or create a public invitation link. With the latter, anyone who obtains the link could confirm their assistance, but can activate a “Approve RSVP” configuration to check the guest list manually. That way, you have no party shocks … at least the super organized.
If you are inviting someone without an iPhone, the web experience is designed to be beautiful with the iPhone application. And that is the case if you have an Android device: you still have full access to collaboration aspects such as the playlist and shared photos, assuming you have an Apple account.
How much does it cost?
The only requirement is to be an ICLOUD+subscriber, which begins at $ 0.99 in the United States, £ 0.99 in the United Kingdom, or $ 1.49 in Australia. Apple Invites is the latest incorporation to Icloud Plus, which also provides cloud storage (from 50 GB), safe homekit video, private relay and the ability to hide your Icloud email by creating other accounts.
Apple Invites has some benefits on, for example, event planning applications? It is likely to seem like a good option, one that we will need to try, for those in the Apple ecosystem who have friends with or without an iPhone. The fact that he can still collaborate with the shared photo library, even with an Android phone, is a good step for Apple and can encourage the exchanging of eventual Imessage.
Even so, the fact that Icloud Plus is required shows that services are still of the utmost importance for Apple. For my part, I am happy that this can make it easier to share photos, which is a fight.
Similar to services, Apple Intelligence is of vital importance for the company, and invitations seems to be arguing that two of the outstanding characteristics can be useful here. Writing tools is being launched as a way of giving life to events descriptions, and the recreation patio expects to use generative to create images of events.
