Can't Update My Keynote

I recently updated to macOS Catalina. I've been trying to update Keynote but a message "Keynote cant be installed because macOS version 11 or higher is needed." How to fix that?

If you had previously installed Keynote from the Mac App Store on earlier releases of macOS, you may be able to get the last compatible version of it for Catalina.


Launch the Mac App Store, and sign in with the same Apple ID you had used to install Keynote previously. Press cmd+0 (zero) to open the Purchased screen, and if Keynote is there with a blue cloud outline next to it, click that. It will open a dialog offering to install the last compatible version (v11.1) of Keynote for Catalina. That would also work to get Pages v11.1, and Numbers v11.1 too.
