Overview
- Apple rolled out the Creator Studio update Tuesday, June 30, 2026, adding on‑device AI in Final Cut Pro such as Generate Captions for automatic transcription, Edit Detection to split rendered video back into original clips, Auto Mask to identify subjects, improved Match Color, and Advanced Trimming.
- Pixelmator Pro gains natural‑language image generation and a curated Content Hub and now integrates with Final Cut Pro, Pages, Keynote, and Numbers so edited frames or images save directly back into the source document or timeline.
- Logic Pro received a rebuilt Chord ID for more accurate harmonic analysis, a new Producer Project from Khris Riddick‑Tynes, a granular sync mode in Alchemy, and new sound packs to speed music production and sound design.
- Final Cut Camera, Motion, Compressor, and iWork apps also saw practical upgrades including Clean HDMI Out and expanded ProRes options in Final Cut Camera, vector scaling in Motion, an Immersive Metadata Viewer for Vision Pro in Compressor, and AI shape generation plus easier Content Hub access in Pages, Keynote, and Numbers.
- The updates are free for existing Creator Studio subscribers while the subscription remains $12.99 per month or $129 per year with family sharing, education rates, and limited trials, and Apple says most AI work runs on device to keep creators' media private and fast.
