### 3/5 — …

*2026-08-26, version 15.3*

The reason I gave it three stars is because I use this app for school and all my other friends have a clip button which allows them to insert stuff. I do not have that. I think my iPad’s glitching. I don’t know but if anyone else does not have a clip button, please tell me.

### 4/5 — A

*2026-08-26, version 15.3*

Amazing, but I would prefer the new version sometimes it doesn’t work and you can’t change things once you’ve made them and when you press the back button it sometimes doesn’t work

### 3/5 — New Keynote

*2026-08-26, version 15.3.1*

I really like using Keynote. I find I like it better than other options out there, but often need to convert it to some other format for sharing. The minus 2 stars is for Apple making it harder to find the old templates within all the new AI templates. I don’t want AI. Please stop with the AI.

### 3/5 — 123Stephine

*2026-08-26, version 15.3*

I like keynote a lot but it takes up wayyyyy to much storage!!! I mean look at Google slides!! They take up barely anything!! It’s pure ragebait!!!

### 4/5 — :(

*2026-08-26, version 15.3*

Nothing saves im sorry but i loose all my work! pls fix ASAP

### 4/5 — Love it

*2026-08-25, version 15.3*

I love Keynote it makes me feel better when  i  am sad  but once i went on and it  deleted all my projects but a Few  weeks later they came back

### 4/5 — Limited value in real world

*2026-08-24, version 15.3.1*

Need to make presentation at conference & it only accepts Powerpoint format :-(

### 4/5 — Keynote previews

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

This is a great app for building presentations, has some cool animations and features. 
One suggestions I would like to see is ability to see the whole theme as a preview before having to click into it. Even a simple swipe gesture would help to see if we want to use that theme or not.

### 4/5 — Good app but update ruined it

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

I make most of my presentations with it and i love it! But the Apple Creator Studio took over and no normal shapes…

### 4/5 — The reason why keynote is the best in the world

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

It lets me do anything and dose not delete my work when I do it

### 3/5 — Marginal application

*2026-08-23, version 15.3.1*

Like many Apple software offerings, Keynote is good enough to be useful, but limited enough to be frustrating. The feature set stops just short of providing the options to create exactly what you want.

### 4/5 — Presentation fun🌸🌸🥰🥭🫰🏻✌🏻✌🏽

*2026-08-22, version 15.3*

Good I made a cool presentation

### 3/5 — 若能改变就能更好

*2026-08-22, version 15.3*

希望免费版的功能能多囊扩一些付费版的功能😘

### 5/5 — Creating games

*2026-08-21, version 15.3*

I used this so much for creating a new game that actually worked good!

### 3/5 — Get back to basics

*2026-08-21, version 15.3.1*

I used to love Keynote. It’s simple user interface, the flexibility of the options without anything overly complex, everything was perfect. Now, the AI, and commercialisation options being introduced, it is betraying the nature of what I loved about keynote. It’s annoying now, and if those trends continue it might mean abandoning keynote altogether.

### 5/5 — Texture tastes so good

*2026-08-21, version 15.3*

I love the notes, but take notes at school too.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Quit it with the AI slop pushing!

*2026-08-25, version 15.3.1*

I didn’t ask Apple for generative AI. I don’t want generative AI in my productivity tools, but Apple won’t let me turn it off. I’m migrating off Apple software as soon as practicable.

### 1/5 — The ai update has stolen the buttons

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

I’m searching forums, ChatGPT, etc. nothing will bring the insert image, insert text box, etc, buttons back. An inexcusable, incomprehensible bug from the company that’s famous for ‘it just works.’ It’s unusable!

### 1/5 — Subscription Bait

*2026-08-24, version 15.3.1*

Shouldn’t have to pay to get templates

### 1/5 — Change to Paid Subscription

*2026-08-23, version 15.3.1*

Very unhappy with the migration to the new business model.  Sucks that now I have been rug-pulled will need to migrate my documents to a new platform.  Also considering operating system switch over to linux as well since value prospect of Apple is eroding both in privacy and in offering.

### 1/5 — Text?

*2026-08-20, version 15.3.1*

Can’t find the text size…frustrating

### 1/5 — Not at all intuitive

*2026-08-19, version 15.3.1*

Adds all sorts of formatting that’s difficult to remove or adjust without a steep and time consuming  learning curve

### 1/5 — Not Updating

*2026-08-19, version 15.3.1*

I refuse to update Keynote. I have 14.5 and it world just fine. I have TONS of files in the version and don’t want to lose them. If for some reason it stops working, I’ll use another art program I have to create the same thing, I’ll just work around it.

### 1/5 — terrible

*2026-08-19, version 15.3.1*

Does not allow me to save changes, unacceptable

### 1/5 — No good updates

*2026-08-18, version 15.3*

No good updates for normal keynote!!!??? Only for apple creator studio!!!???

### 1/5 — Poor in features

*2026-08-16, version 15.3*

The basic features are very basic and those new adds needs to be paid

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Keynote Review

*2026-08-26, version 15.3*

I’m loving Keynote for some of the presentations I’m doing on Looksmaxxing, personal development and self improvement. They’ve been a great way to make little slideshows to post on TikTok when the mechanisms within TikTok for creating slideshows are slightly sub-par

### 5/5 — Intuitive and Easy to Use

*2026-08-25, version 15.3.1*

I created my first ever presentation with this. It was much simpler than I thought it would be and worked amazing!

### 5/5 — Awesome but...

*2026-08-25, version 15.3*

This app is very good but I think it needs more editing tools and stuff

### 5/5 — Great!😀

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

You done better than PoverPoint!

### 5/5 — Hi

*2026-08-24, version 15.3*

It help’s me learn and write story’s. I can use it for my school progects

### 5/5 — Better than Powerpoint

*2026-08-24, version 15.3.1*

Intuitive programme for making slides and presentations.  Embeds multimedia seamlessly.  Great slide transitions and animations.  Will make Powerpoint slides including speaker notes for AV controllers that insist on that format.  Some functions hard to find but Google can tell you how.  Has difficulty with imported tables.

### 5/5 — Maps

*2026-08-23, version 15.3.1*

I can create TfL maps.

### 5/5 — key love note

mister understanding
