Apple Invites

Apple just launched “Invites” – its brand-new app for creating custom event invitations.

With Invites, you can:

:white_check_mark: Create & share event invites

:white_check_mark: RSVP (even if you’re not on Apple)

:white_check_mark: Contribute to Shared Albums :camera_flash:

:white_check_mark: Curate event soundtracks :notes:

A couple of standout features:

:round_pushpin: Integrated Maps for easy directions

:partly_sunny: Weather updates for your event day

:framed_picture: AI-generated invite designs with Image Playground

:memo: Writing assistance powered by Apple Intelligence

But there’s a catch:

You need an iCloud+ subscription to create invites. However, anyone can RSVP – even without an Apple device.

With this launch, Apple is stepping into the space dominated by Partiful, Evite, and Paperless Post. But will it truly replace them?
