Improvements for IWork for iOS

I write to suggest improving your IWork for ios application.
The applications are very good, but lacks some important features that would help iPad -Iphone users to work better.
These absences are:
NUMBERS:
- filters
- sort by more criteria
- categories
- better use when a keyboard is attached in the iphone or iPad, it is no neccesary that the virtual keyboard appears all the time, please, let the user choose if he considers it is neccesary
- Landscape view in iphone
- Support for more functions
- Capacity to open bigger spreadsheets
I suggest to checo out the Polaris Office application, this one has some functions that are lacking in Numbers.
PAGES:
Please, a better way to insert: page jump, tab, etc. Maybe a button in the Toolbar.
IWORK FOR IPHONE: Besides the requirements listed above: a undo-redo button, because, it is very unconfortable to the user, shake his iphone when he has to undo or redo a lot of actions.
Thanks And
Best regards

None of the iWork apps for iOS can open documents from Dropbox or Google Drive

Starting on version 2.5, all the iWork apps for iOS are supposed to be able to open files from any third-party storage provider like Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. Actually, this feature was mentioned in the Apple presentation by Craig Federighi. Box works as advertised, however Dropbox and Google drive fail to show in the storage providers list, even though they appear in the "Manage Storage Providers" list, where you activate/deactivate the function. The Box app, works really nice, you can open any file, make changes and save back to Box. Any ideas?

In all likelihood the issue isn't with any app specifically, but on the server side of those services that aren't working
I can see how that makes sense. Thanks.
It's still confusing, however, for a few reasons:
1) many storage apps (e.g. One drive)don't show up at all in the chooser, so why are Box and Dropbox showing up there (you can toggle them on) but not working.
2) Google Drive specifically listed in the last update that it could now open from and save to drive in other apps, but it doesn't work in iWork apps.
3) Dropbox has implemented the chooser and it DOES work with google drive. So if the problem is that Google hasn't implemented something on their end, I still wonder why it actually does work in the dropbox app.

Iwork for iOS on mac?

if i am eligible and download iwork for ios on app store for free with a new iphone purchase
do i get the equivalent iwork for mac also free?

No they are two different apps for two different operating systems.

IWork for iOS 6

Can I get iWork for iOS 6 anywhere? I would not like to update to iOS 7 on my iPAD 2, which the versions on the App Store require.

I have the older (iOS 6) versions of the iWork Suite archived on my PC and they run just fine on my iOS 6.1.3 iPad 3rd Gen and iPad 4th Gen units. I believe if you own the iWork suite and have an iOS 6 device, you will still have access to those older versions via the App Store. Of course the iOS 7 versions will NOT run on iOS 6 devices but I believe you will be offered to download the newest version(s) that support your iOS 6 device.

Will money spent on iLife and iWork apps for iOS be refunded now that it's free?

No.

Does anyone know if iWork for iOS can be used on both iPhone 4S and iPad 2? If I bought Pages, say, could I use it on both devices? Thanks

It is the same version. So the iWork package will work on both, but Siri will only work on the iPhone 4S. So you could dictate on that, and use iCloud to finish the document on your iPad (assuming you have both). Cheers

IWork for iOS not syncing via iCloud

Our new iMac came with the “free” iWork for OSX apps, so I decided to give iCloud syncing between OSX and IOS devices another try.
I went to iCloud.com and created a simple document in Pages, Numbers and Keynote. I then checked to see if these three documents “showed up” on our iMac, MBP, iPhone 5s and iPad mini. Syncing the three iWork documents worked fine on the iMac and MBP. But the syncing results to iWork iOS apps on our iPhone and iPad were pretty abysmal. In both cases only ONE (out of three) of the iWork apps synced: Keynote on the iPad and Pages on the iPhone.
Since at least one of the documents synced correctly on each of the iOS devices, I obviously have the right iCloud account info., etc. And I assure you that all three apps had/have their little green switches/sliders set to “on" in the Settings>iCloud>Documents and Data. Two days should be enough time to sync even on a slow internet connection. Syncing iWork for IOS documents was working before I turned off iCloud>Documents and Data syncing several months ago because I didn’t have iWork for OSX at the time and had no need to sync iWork documents between the iPhone and iPad.
So what gives? Interestingly the two iWork for iOS apps that synced correctly, were the only apps that asked to use iCloud when they launched. And these were the only two apps that had not been launched since their last update. Could it be that iWork for IOS apps don’t pay attention to changes in the iCloud Documents and Data sync settings if syncing has been previously turned off?

Numbers and Pages are not syncing with iCloud on my iPhone or iPad, except for one occurrence in five days. Changed documents sit there with an arrow icon.
Hardware is iPhone 5S running iOS 7.1.2 and iPad Air running 7.1.2
Latest update of Numbers and Pages. I deleted and reinstalled Numbers on the iPad without any change however this did seem to bring the esisting documents down to the device from iCloud.
I have an internet connection. I have tried turning 4G on and off, setting up a hotspot on either device so that the other has a wireless connection but this has not fixed the problem.
I have tried restarting both devices.
i have tried turning Use iCloud off but this only worked once.
Data roaming is on and cellular data is on on both devices.
Settings/iCloud/Documents & Data/Numbers is turned on and Settings/iCloud/Documents & Data/Pages is turned on on both devices.
Settings/Numbers/Use iCloud is on and Settings/Pages/Use iCloud is on on both devices.
Looking at Settings/iCloud/Manage Storage/Numbers shows there are documents.
i am currently travelling, hence the 3G/4G. At home, on my wireless network (based on an ADSL connection) it will often sync sporadically enough that it is not much of an issue, just an irritation. However this total lack of syncing over the past five days is getting to be pretty unamusing.

I bought the iWork apps for IOS, do I have to buy them again for my iMac?

I purchased the three Cloud-based iWork programs on my iPad2 with the hope that I could delete all traces of Microsoft from my life. They are on and update on both my iPad and iPhone. But the App Store on my iMac doesn't show that I purchased these programs. I really don't want to buy the same software twice just to test them to see if they can replace MS-Office. RIght now the IOS programs are a waste of money beause I won't use them unless I can also use them on my home and work iMacs.

Numbers is very powerful and works in a way that Excel doesn't, more like DTP with individual spreadsheets that talk to each other. If you get into it you can do things that Excel users can't even dream of.
Keynote IMHO is far superior to PowerPoint. Al Gore got an Oscar for his An Uncomfortable Truth done with Keynote.
Pages is not Word but will work with Word opening and saving with some incompatibilities. If you have to closely work with MsWord users, particularly PC users, then Pages may or may not suit you. However Pages has its own unique strengths that make many people drop MsWord all together. It has considerably more DTP abilities than Word and powerful internal spreadsheets and charts that are almost a match for Numbers.
You can buy them individually from the M.A.S. so if you have no use for the others, don't buy them.
At the moment you can not get Word for iOS, and it costs considerably more, so it is up to you to chose.

I have just purchased a MacBook Pro and iWork's. when I try to upload documents using iCloud, it now wants me to purchase iWorks for iOS ? Do I need to purchase both versions?

To be able to use documents at iCloud.com, you need at least one iOS device that uses the same account with at least one of the iWork apps installed.

Submit: Great Skype for iOS ideas

The new iOS idea board lets you all share and exchange your ideas on how to improve and develop Skype for iOS.
Before you start sharing your ideas, here are some guidelines to help you get started:
Idea Submission Guidelines
Search before posting. Do a quick search and make sure you are not submitting a duplicate. If the idea already exists show your support by giving kudos to the original idea rather than watering down the potential impact across multiple submissions.
Draft your idea. Be as clear as possible, tell us what your idea is, how it would benefit users and why you think we should consider it. That will not only help us to better understand what you want, but we may even be able to solve your problem more quickly another way. Please avoid text speak and keep the idea short and to the point. Ideas are available within a limited number of topic sections of the community as they are not discussion threads.
Currently you can choose one of the following topic labels for your ideas:
Video
Video calling is one of Skype’s most popular features. What do/don’t you like about Video calling on Skype for iOS and do you have any ideas for how we can make video calling even better? You can send video messages to family and friends, even when they’re not online. Let us know what you think of Video Messaging in Skype and any ideas you have for how we can make it better.
Voice
Calling individuals and groups is at the core of Skype. Anything you are currently missing with those features? What would make you use the Skype app more for calling?
Instant Messaging & Contacts
How can we make it easier for you to find friends and family on Skype and add them as a contact? What are your thoughts on how contacts are managed on Skype for iOS? How to enrich your chat experience? Do you have any recommended improvements?
Sharing
Tell us how you would like Skype to be integrated with iOS. Would things be easier if Skype was better integrated with your contacts? Better integrated into other apps? Or in the dial pad?
Some things to include:
Start with a clear title, e.g. "Add XY", ""
Add appropriate label(s) from the list of labels shown below
List features and benefits
Review the ideas of others. Look at other ideas to see what your fellow community members are requesting and feel free to exchange on them in the comments section. While we take into account the numbers of kudos an idea receives, we also consider the amount and quality of member feedback when making our decisions.
Add value. Vote for those items that you like and agree with by giving the idea a kudos. It's really a significant way to recognize someone's effort. We are using votes as a barometer to find out more about what our contributor community thinks is important, so we can factor this into our prioritization process.
Submit a new idea. Adding an idea is just like posting a message on a board. To create an idea, click on the “New Idea” button, located on the left side of the page content tab, and in the left column under the actions heading click “create an idea”. Be sure to enter a clear title and description of your idea so others can decide how they would like to vote. Remember, the more complete your thought, the more likely it is to get noticed! You can use simple HTML, format the text, or add links or images. You can also preview your idea and check your spelling before you post the idea.
Do not be discouraged. Sometimes what seems simple may not be so simple to build. Some ideas take longer than others, and some ideas will not be possible within the scope of what we want to accomplish in the next year or so.
Be respectful. Comply with the Community Guidelines and Skype etiquette.

I would really appreciate if you guys work on the feature “ custom backgrounds for chat notifications”.
If users will be able to choose any image of their liking in the custom background feature if would add value. Currently some of the chat messengers provide this facility to the users which makes interesting to the users while improving user friendliness and satisfaction. Options that would include are
Take a photo
Choose from albums
Search from web
Delete
That appears to be a reasonably robust selection. In search, a user can use a built in engine to pull up images based on search and then select it as it their choice. Once you chose an image, it will be asked to confirm and ‘set’ as the universal chat window for all contacts.

How do I add a comment to a cell in Numbers for iCloud beta like I can in Numbers for ios???

I can't be the only person to find it incredibly frustrating that it seems impossible to add a comment to a cell in beta. I use this function a lot on my ipad - is it really not available in beta?? And if not, why not??

Hey lolitajoon,
Thanks for the question. You are correct, comments are hidden from all iWork apps when imported to iWork for iCloud beta. Please note that the current release of Numbers for iCloud is a beta version. Therefore, certain features aren’t yet supported.

Although I have been using Google Maps App in India for a while now (without any issues) but I still want to know if there are any plans for launching Turn by Turn Navigation under the OOTB Map App for iOS?

It has been quite a while since Apple came up with Map App of their own and should be releasing improved maps with more capabilities in India.
Cheers!

No one here can answer your question, as there is no one from Apple here, & no one here represents Apple or speaks for Apple.

Opening a shared "view only" Keynote in Keynote for iOS ?

I've shared a keynote with co-workers and given them view-only access. It really needs to be viewed either on a Mac or in Keynote for iOS so that it retains it's audio soundtrack and it's animations. My co-workers don't have Macs, but they do all have staff iPads. When I send them a link to share the view-only keynote, it tries to direct them to a Safari tab and iCloud.
Is there a way for them to open a view-only Keynote in the Keynote app for iOS? That's the only way they can see it with the designed animations and audio.

I figured it out and they DO play the background soundtrack on the iPad.
These were files created in Keynote 5.3 (iWork '09). However, since that version doesn't allow sharing to iCloud, I made a copy of the file and opened it in Keynote 6.2 (newest version). I shared it to iCloud as view-only.
When you click on the emailed link to the shared document, it opens a page in Safari on the iPad. This page includes a download link. Once you wait for the download process to finish, the normal "Open in. . ." popup (overlay at the top) appears on the Safari page and it then allows you to open the presentation in Keynote for iOS. This plays the file AND the background soundtrack. One of the presentations had an iTunes playlist as the background soundtrack. Another presentation had a "recorded narrative". Both files played with their audio intact.

When will Adobe Reader for iOS support Livecycle XFA forms?

Adobe Reader for iOS currently does not appear to support XFA forms created through Livecycle. Although it supports some field types, the HTTP submit and Email submit buttons don't work.
Being able to email the completed form ready for someone else to submit would be a work around, however when attempting to 'share' a completed form and send it by email the form is blank when saved and opened in the desktop version of Adobe Reader on a PC.
We are getting more and more requests from ipad users who wish to use our forms, and it seems that some other paid-for apps claim to support this. Seeing as Adobe Reader is the industry standard product for using PDFs could we have more support for pdf forms please?
...or at the very least, a product roadmap with some dates for when this might be available please?

There are two basic varieties of LiveCycle XFA...Static XFA and Dynamic XFA, which are very different in terms of their future for potential support in Adobe Reader for iOS. Which variety of XFA are you using?
Static XFA uses the PDF markup language for content and form fields, so users can view the documents in Adobe Reader for iOS, but we currently do not properly handle filling, saving, and submitting those forms. I have improving our handling of Static XFA on my roadmap, but cannot offer any specific date yet (sorry, policy plus actual uncertainty). I know that there are some other apps that partially support Static XFA, though I do not know how complete their support is. If you can even open the XFA document in Adobe Reader for iOS, it is likely Static XFA.
Dynamic XFA is effectively a JavaScript application packaged inside a PDF wrapper, which generates layout and form fields via code and requires a significant engine to support this. Support for Dynamic XFA is unfortunately not currently on our roadmap for iOS due to the nature of the technology, and our concern that any implementation we try likely will not pass Apple's restriction against installing something that allows other "apps" to be downloaded and executed from within it. The LiveCycle team is exploring solutions for our enterprise customers wanting to use Dynamic XFA from mobile devices as part of their server offering, but I cannot offer any insight here. To my knowledge, there are no applications that handle Dynamic XFA other than Adobe Reader for the desktop platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux).
