Apple updates Keynote with support for the Apple Watch
With the first Apple Watch shipments scheduled to arrive later this week, Apple has just updated its Keynote presentation app for the iPhone and iPad.
Version 2.5.3 adds support for the Apple Watch. Using the wearable device, users can easily move through their presentations.
Keynote is a universal app designed for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad/iPad mini. It can be downloaded for $9.99 on the App Store. Many users who have purchased a new iOS device on Sept. 1, 2013 or later should be able to download the app for free.
Apple also updated a number of its other apps – Pages, Numbers, Beats Music, and Remote – with stability improvement and bug fixes.
And users of the similar PowerPoint app shouldn’t fret. That universal app was updated yesterday with support for Apple’s wearable. Users can start their slideshow and easily navigate to the next and previous slides. They’ll also be able to view the elapsed time, current slide number, and total number of slides.
