Apple today updated its suite of iWork apps, including Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS, with support for new features.
In the latest version of Pages, Keynotes, and Numbers Apple has added support for easily sharing documents with co-workers through Messages and support for new collaboration features in iOS 16, iPadOS 16, and macOS Ventura, including integration with FaceTime.
The latest updates also add support for getting notified when changes are made in a shared document and improved support for Stage Manager on iPadOS 16. All of the new versions are available for customers on the App Store.

Apple has added a new "iPhone Handoff" feature to iOS 27 that will allow you to switch between two iPhones while using the same phone number on each device.

I use Pages all the time as a professional copywriter, ghostwriter, and pulp fiction maniac. It is simple to use, compatible with Word, free, and hasn't irritated me one bit... except for when they dumbed the program down to match the iOS version!
Though I will admit I supplement Pages with Grammarly to replace the grammar checker, Scrivener to organize the story/export the document, and AutoCrit to sanity-check my material before sending it to an editor.
iWork has been maturing into a really decent office suite that integrates well with the Apple ecosystem. I actually prefer Pages to Word and Numbers has pivot tables and a growing library of functions that makes it quite usable.
