help Apple Keynote FAQ
Can Apple Keynote open and export PowerPoint files?
Keynote can import and export Microsoft PowerPoint files, including the common .pptx format. Complex transitions, fonts, and animations may not translate perfectly, so a deck meant for PowerPoint users should be checked after export.
Why do designers often prefer Keynote animations over Google Slides or PowerPoint?
Keynote is known for polished transitions like Magic Move, which can animate objects smoothly between slides. On macOS and iPadOS, it gives tight control over timing, object builds, and cinematic motion without needing a separate video tool.
Does Keynote work outside the Apple ecosystem?
Keynote runs as a native app on macOS, iPadOS, and iOS, and Apple also offers a web version through iCloud. It is strongest when everyone is using Apple devices, because fonts, media handling, and presentation controls are more predictable there.
Is Keynote free, or is it part of an Apple subscription?
Apple Keynote is free for Apple users and is part of Apple’s iWork apps alongside Pages and Numbers. It is not a Microsoft 365-style paid presentation subscription.
