Does free iWork on iOS entitle me to free iWork to Mac?

ios iwork

I have recently become the proud owner of a new iPhone 5s and have benefitted from the free iWork apps that are available to new devices.

I also own a 2012 MacBook Pro running Mavericks. Now I have the iWork apps on my iPhone, does it entitle me to them on my Mac via 'purchased' or are they different apps altogether being on different platforms?


Solution 1:

Actually no, iOS and OSX version of iWorks are 2 different softwares although linked by iCloud (AppStore & Mac AppStore "are" independent). iWork for OSX is free for every Mac bought after October 1st 2013.

There are some workaround to get the 3 OSX apps (Pages, Keynote & Numbers) for free without any illegal download.

Does Apple know that or do they do that on purpose ? That a good question that I do not know the answer.
