The Invites app gives the host full control over the event details, invitations, and RSVPs. Invitations can be shared via links, allowing guests to respond through the app or the web without requiring Apple ID or iCloud+ subscriptions. Attendees can also manage their visibility and exit events at any time.

Users can personalize invitations by selecting images from their photo library or from Apple's curated collection of themed backgrounds. Integrated Maps and Weather features provide guests with event directions and real-time weather forecasts.

The App includes shared Music Playlists and Shared Albums, which enable attendees to upload photos and videos, preserving memories in one place. Apple Music subscribers can create collaborative playlists that guests can access directly through the app.

Alongside Apple Intelligence, the app streamlines invitation design allowing users to generate unique visuals with Image Playground by incorporating personal photos and captions. The writing tools assist in writing a captivating and well-structured invitation message.

iCloud+ subscribers gain several additional features such as:

1. Expanded Cloud Storage for higher-resolution photos, videos, and files.

3. Hide My Email for generating randomized email addresses
4. HomeKit Secure video for personalized home security footage
