IWork: 3 iPad and iPhone apps to replace Word, Excel and PowerPoint
Pages, Keynote and Numbers are 3 applications that respectively create documents, presentations and calculation sheets.
To understand their usefulness, we can compare them to Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel.
There are several applications of the same kind, but keep in mind that they were created by Apple for Apple. They were therefore specially designed to operate with brand devices, which ensures maximum efficiency.
The 3 applications detail $ 9.99 each and are compatible with iCloud so it is possible to revise documents from any iOS synchronized to the cloud.
In addition, no need to worry about having recorded the last versions well since the recording is done automatically each time.
Pages application for word processing
The pages application allows the production of 16 types of documents such as a letter, a curriculum vitae, an invitation, a report and a leaflet.
Like other word processing tools, pages allows in particular to lay down documents, choose from different writing policies and detect poor spelling words.
Because a text is always more attractive with images, we have a small tool to touch up the photos before inserting them into the text. In addition, to make writing more pleasant, the “smart zoom” tool enlarges the text while we type with the touch keyboard. Smart Zoom is offered only on iPhone and iPod given the smallest size of their screen.
To be even more comfortable when writing, it is possible to use a wireless keyboard thanks to Bluetooth technology.
The Keynote application for presentations
Keynote is the application of iWork which allows you to create presentation documents.
Whether to sell a product to a potential customer or to present a new project at work, creating a presentation document to support your speech is always a great idea. Keynote is perfect for doing it, in addition to being easy to use.
When you use the application in writing mode, you can select a canvas from those already created or simply go nine. Colors, fonts, the background. Everything can be personalized to create an original presentation.
We then add to each slide a text accompanied by photos, videos and graphics that can also be modified as desired. To add a touch of originality to the presentation, Keynote offers, among other things, “Magic Move”. This tool allows you to create small animations to, for example, put the emphasis on an image by spinning it. Keynote also offers several types of transitions to help capture public attention. Even during slide changes!
To make the presentation even more professional, you can use the Keynote Remote application (sold separately from Keynote). This allows you to transform the iPhone or iPod Touch into a remote control that scrolls the slides. Keynote Remote allows you to control a Keynote presentation which is on an iPad, Mac, iPhone or iPod Touch.
The Numbers application for calculations
The Numbers application is an excellent tool for a budget, under training or to create any other document involving figures! The app allows you to create calculation sheets with tables, diagrams, graphics and photos and has been designed to make users only one with mathematics!
There are therefore several models on which it only remains to enter the figures in the appropriate boxes. As the formulas are already integrated, the calculations are done as if by magic. It is also possible to modify the colors, fonts, dimensions, paintings and much more! We also adapted the keyboard of the application to facilitate the input of figures.
In all, Numbers offers 250 functions!
One of them gives the possibility of linking a table to a form to accelerate the entry of a large number of data. As data is added to the form in question, they integrate into the table! Interesting for those who have to work with thousands of data!
Compatibility
There is no concern to have compatibility with Microsoft documents since pages, Keynote and Numbers applications allow you to open Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents.
In addition, the documents created from applications are exportable to formats in the Microsoft suite as in PDF.
Obviously, the iWork suite for iPad is compatible with the suite for Mac!
COMPATIBILITY: iOS 5.1 or more recent
LANGUAGE: Available in French
