One of the most significant updates in 2015 was the introduction of the iWork for iCloud web apps. These browser-based versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote allowed users to create and edit files directly in their web browser, making it possible to work on iWork files from any device with an internet connection.

: iWork was ideal for creative, education, and basic business use; Office remained standard for advanced finance, law, and enterprise.

Gone were the skeuomorphic textures of the past; in their place were clean lines, translucent sidebars, and simplified toolbars. This was more than a coat of paint; it was an effort to make the user experience seamless. A document created on an iPhone began to look and behave exactly the same way when opened on a Mac, reducing the friction of moving between devices.
