Numbers

Use Numbers to create attractive and powerful spreadsheets on your Mac. More than 30

Apple-designed templates give you a head start creating budgets, invoices, team rosters, and more. Numbers can also open and export Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.

Start with a template—then add what you want. Select the sample text in the template, then type new text. To add images, drag a graphic file from your Mac onto the placeholder image.

Add objects like shapes and charts.

View formatting options for the selected object.

Get organized with sheets. Use multiple sheets or tabs to show different views of your information. For example, use one sheet for your budget, another for a table, and a third for notes. Click to add a new sheet. Drag a tab left or right to reorder sheets.
