According to a new report, Apple is about to launch four new apps for iPadOS. These are Pixelmator Pro, MainStage, Motion, and Compressor. They would join Apple’s Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro, both of which arrived on iPadOS in 2023.
The four apps that are supposedly coming to an iPad near you are at the moment only available on macOS. Apple acquired professional image editing app Pixelmator Pro this year, while MainStage is a Logic Pro companion app for live performances, Compressor is a Final Cut Pro companion app for compressing audio and video files, and Motion is a Final Cut Pro companion app for creating 2D/3D titles, transitions, and effects.
On macOS, these four are available for purchase with prices ranging from $29.99 to $49.99 each. It’s unclear if the same pricing model will apply on iPadOS or if Apple will choose to offer them as subscriptions. And speaking of things that aren’t clear, when we should expect the four new apps to reach iPadOS is also a mystery right now.
