Apple has introduced a new app, Invites, aimed at streamlining the event planning process by allowing users to create personalized invitations with ease. By integrating features from Apple’s existing ecosystem, the app enables event hosts to design custom invitations, RSVP manage, and even curate collaborative soundtracks for their events using Apple Music. Though it requires an iCloud+ subscription for creation, it allows anyone to RSVP, even without an Apple device. By incorporating useful tools like Maps for event directions, Weather for forecasts, and shared albums for memories, it competes with third-party services like Partiful, Evite, and Paperless Post. The app is designed to make events more interactive and memorable, and it’s now available for iPhone users running iOS 18 or later, with web access at icloud.com/invites.
