doesn’t need a new app + currently somewhat broken
The new layout is fine and all, and it’s still a pretty good app for writing documents. I don’t see the need for an entirely new app though, they didn’t really change the fundamentals of pages, just its appearance and some new content that’s locked behind a paywall. I also don’t really like the paywall in itself, it seems like Apple is just trying to get more money off of pages and its other apps lately. Also, recently with the new update the paragraph hyphenation option has been permanently checked on, at least for me. And not only am I not used to seeing the annotations, italics, underlining, etc. don’t show up for me anymore. What I mean is I can still italicize or bold text but it doesn’t change the appearance of it. It only italicizes (or whatever the effect is) when said text is the only word in that line. However this effect only happened on my Mac, on my other devices it’s fine (so far). Please fix this Apple. Until then I suppose I’ll have to resort to Google Docs for my own comfort.

Get rid of creators studio options
I own pixelmator pro, why when I click edit in pixelmator do I have to subscribe to the creators studio? If I don’t have it, don’t show the option. I will never pay for creators studio. Way to ruin the apps more and more. I already pay for an office 365 subscription, why should I keep using apples apps? Ridiculous.

not very user friendly
I use Word at work and love it. My husband has us using Pages at home (Mac computer) and I find it harder to figure out how to do basic things.
A Paintbrush is not text…
I was struggling to figure out how to change the text and out of dumb luck clicked a paintbrush onion and it worked!! So if I wanna paint I need to find the text icon..?
Honestly unusable
I have this on my MacBook, iPad and iPhone with the view that I’ll be able to go between devices when editing documents. It’s advertised as being a seamless experience. It is the worst and most unreliable word processing app I have ever used. It claims to sync and doesn’t. If you make an edit, it’s just the roll of a dice as to whether it will reach the cloud. This has happened to me twice now where I’ve lost a decent amount of work as a result of its unreliability. If you’re working on anything important I must tell you, please do not count on pages because it WILL let you down hugely when you need it.
