Apple is rolling out updates today to the iWork apps for Mac. These updates bring YouTube and Vimeo integration to Numbers and Pages, in addition to captions and titles to images, videos, and more.

Check out the full release notes of today’s updates below:

Numbers 10.1

  • Play YouTube and Vimeo videos right in your spreadsheets.
  • Easily add captions and titles to images, videos, shapes, and other objects.
  • New functions, including XLOOKUP, XMATCH, and REGEX, let you match patterns, manipulate text, and create flexible formulas.

Keynote 10.1

  • Use the new “Play Slideshow in Window” option to have access to other applications while presenting locally or via video conferencing.
  • Movies can now play through slide transitions. Add the same movie to multiple slides to play from one slide to the next.
  • Use the Align to Path option to have objects stay pointed in the correct direction while following a motion path.
  • Easily add captions and titles to images, videos, shapes and other objects.

Pages 10.1
