Apple Invites App Updated With Two New Features

by

Apple Invites was updated today with two minor features related to RSVPing to an invite: hosts and guests can now react with emoji when someone replies to an event, and a confetti animation now appears when guests reply.

General Apple Invites Feature
Version 1.10 of the app also contains bug fixes and performance improvements, according to Apple. The update is available now in the App Store.

Released for the iPhone in February 2025, the Apple Invites app makes it easy to invite people to events, such as birthday parties and baby showers. The ability to create an event in the app requires subscribing to an iCloud+ plan with at least 50GB of storage, but anyone who receives an event link can RSVP for free on any device.

Super embarrassing for Apple that this is *still* an iPhone-only app.

Waste of developer resources. This is the kind of app that a third-party should make, not Apple.

Look, I get why people think this is a weird place to spend resources but look ahead. Almost all of Apple's Apple Intelligence scenarios end in some sort of an event or gathering. This app is being developed to become an agentic application.

Apple has long been positioning itself as the company that fosters real world interactions, the antidote to the brain rot social media tech giants that want you buried in your phone scrolling. Modern Apple's DNA wants you spending time with people, taking photos (iPhone), participating in outdoor activities (Watch), etc. The Invite app is a means to that end.
