Apple appears to be gearing up to bring Pixelmator Pro, Compressor, Motion, and MainStage to the iPad, as evidenced by new App Store IDs discovered by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris. Currently, all four apps are exclusive to the Mac.

A quick overview of each app:
• Pixelmator Pro: Professional image editing app acquired by Apple earlier this year
• Compressor: Final Cut Pro companion app for compressing audio and video files
• Motion: Final Cut Pro companion app for creating 2D/3D titles, transitions, and effects
• MainStage: Logic Pro companion app for live performancesFinal Cut Pro and Logic Pro have been available on select iPad models since May 2023, but Apple’s companion apps have remained limited to the Mac.
MacDailyNews Take: It’ll be great to have these app available for iPadOS, too. Of course, Photomator – Apple’s stripped-down version of Pixelmator Pro – is an easy-to-use photo editor that’s already available for Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Vision Pro. More info about Apple’s Photomator 3.4 here.
