Apple Creator Studio
Apple Creator Studio Now Available — Here’s What You Need to Know
Apple has officially launched Apple Creator Studio as of January 28, 2026, ushering in a new era for creators, professionals, and productivity users alike. This all-in-one subscription bundle brings together Apple’s most powerful creative tools under a single plan — with flexible pricing and a one-month free trial for new subscribers.
What Is Apple Creator Studio?
Creator Studio is a subscription suite designed to give users access to a broad range of Apple’s creative and professional apps. Instead of purchasing each app separately, users can now access everything they need through one subscription.
Apps Included in the Bundle
With an Apple Creator Studio subscription, you get full access to:
Final Cut Pro — Apple’s pro video editing suite (Mac & iPad)
Logic Pro — Professional music and audio production (Mac & iPad)
Pixelmator Pro — Image editing and creative design (Mac & iPad)
Motion — Motion graphics and effects (Mac)
Compressor — Advanced video/audio encoding (Mac)
MainStage — Live performance and stage sound tool (Mac)
These apps are all part of the Creator Studio suite, giving you professional-grade tools in one place.
Pages, Numbers, and Keynote — Still Free, But Better With Creator Studio
Apple is continuing to offer Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for free — and they remain downloadable and usable without paying anything. However, a Creator Studio subscription unlocks premium features and powerful intelligent tools within these productivity apps, including:
Premium templates and themes
Royalty-free photos and graphics
Advanced AI-powered content suggestions and workflows
These features are not available in the free versions — so if you want all the bells and whistles for documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, Creator Studio enhances these apps beyond their base functionality.
Pricing & Trial Details
Apple Creator Studio is priced as follows:
$12.99 per month — standard subscription
$129 per year — annual subscription, offering savings over monthly billing
1-month free trial — all new subscribers get a full month free before being charged
There are also education discounts available for college students and educators at a reduced rate ($2.99/month or $29.99/year).
What This Means for You
If you’re a content creator, filmmaker, musician, or designer, Apple Creator Studio presents significant value — giving you multiple pro-grade apps for one subscription price. And even if you’re a Pages/Numbers/Keynote user focused on productivity, Creator Studio adds AI-enhanced features and premium content that take those familiar apps to the next level.
Whether you’re just curious or ready to dive into Apple’s creative ecosystem, now’s a great time to explore what Creator Studio has to offer — with a risk-free month to try it out first.
