Apple launches “Invites”, a new custom invitations app

0

Apple has launched a new app called “Invites” that enables users to create custom invitations, RSVP, contribute to Shared Albums, and curate event soundtracks, requiring an iCloud+ subscription.

Apple Invites, which is similar to Partiful, a popular third-party app, will compete with startups like Posh and other services like Evite, Paperless Post, and Sendo Invitations, aiming to replicate Partiful’s functionality.

‎Apple Invites allows users to create invitations with photos from their library or gallery, integrates with Maps and Weather, and allows guests to contribute photos and videos to a Shared Album, and features a collaborative playlist for guests.

‎Apple’s Image Playground allows users to create unique event invitations in the new app, using original images, while Apple Intelligence’s Writing Tools allows for invitation composition.

‎Hosts can manage events, share invitations, and review RSVPs, with the option to display event background or home address details in an invite preview.

‎Conversely guests can view and respond to invitations via the app or web, control their information visibility, and leave or report events.

‎“With Apple Invites, an event comes to life from the moment the invitation is created, and users can share lasting memories even after they get together,” said Brent Chiu-Watson, Apple’s senior director of Worldwide Product Marketing for Apps and iCloud, in a press release.

“Apple Invites brings together capabilities our users already know and love across iPhone, iCloud, and Apple Music, making it easy to plan special events.”
