The Apple Creator Studio subscription has ruined once great and kid friendly iPad apps like Keynote and Pages. Half the buttons prompt you to upgrade, the subscription and premium AI features are pushed HARD.

The Apple Store near me used to run a session for kids where they made a comic book in Keynote. I can鈥檛 imagine how that session would go now.

I guess the in-store apps would be pre-subscribed, so they would just not mention it at all in the session and let the kids be disappointed when they tried it at home later

remember back when the 30% App Store commission was enough money for Apple?
