I love this app! My primary uses are for a monthly budget and a daily complex TV schedule (2 households, multiple recordings, 4 DVRs+). I would love to see the following three features added: (1) the ability to click/tap on an image (or just several merged cells containing text) and pop-up a larger version of the image/merged cells**. (2) the ability to use multiple merged cells to hand write notes using the Apple Pencil (varying nib sizes, move the merged notes around and/or cut/delete like any other cell or merged cells). (3) the ability to insert a moveable and removable window (either set or expandable size, like 4 cells wide and high to 6 cells, or more, wide and high) that would accept animated GIFs and/or video clips. Features 1 and 2 are features I could use immediately. UPDATE: Feature request 3 was added in the latest update. I have a new feature request... the ability to see the history of shared access, like number of visits and date of at least the most-recent visit.**This would really help my friend (with poor near-vision) read the individual blocks of information on the TV schedule.
Minimal Learning Curve!
PawesomeLilAussies
Apple really did a fantastic job on creating an App that has minimal learning curve, visually appealing, smooth running, with plenty of explanations tucked neatly in the little “I’ icons with the blue circle around them. It’s very drag and drop, zoomable, adjustable, easy to navigate and frankly, even fun to play around with. The formulas often seen in spreadsheet related software such as Excel even has its own reference menu. Absolutely love that you can also share with another user and they can even make changes to the file and it all syncs automatically across all connected devices. You can even add a password to your files too. The ONLY thing keeping this App from achieving 5 STARS from me is it is missing the ability to like link to your banking stuff(although I could understand the level of security involved) and there doesn’t seem to be any indictator anywhere that your saves are syncing (like the little cloud icon with green check mark in Light Room Cloud) - that little extra peace of mind goes a long ways with an app that has no save button yet auto saves any changes. Copies are tedious after a bit, you know. That and truthfully, while their instructions for the formulas were present, very visible, there were a few parts that were a tad bit difficult to “decipher” into plain language lol, like it lacked a little more in depth content, especially for more elaborate formula strings. They should come out with like an advanced user tutorial and add more formulas and features - this app is going to go very very far. Especially with its ability to be so much more than a spreadsheet with all of its super cool “live art”. 😀
Line breaks in iOS version ↯
a1n2d3y7
I love Apple’s iWork Suite which includes the Numbers app and find virtually all of the functionalities and overall experience truly intuitive the significant vast majority of the time—however I dislike the fact that inserting a line break in a cell requires too many presses and therefore takes too much time: a big inconvenience. Why can’t one just hold the shift with enter at the same time to add a line break in a cell? You can on Mac! What’s worse is there is no option whatsoever to insert a line break when using the forms feature—a feature that I love completely otherwise. I need the aforementioned functionality in my Numbers spreadsheet that I use to keep track of newly acquired Spanish (my second language) vocabulary and the English counterparts, often having more than one translation for a given word or term. This calls for using line breaks to spread them out in a single cell, and without being able insert breaks at all in the form causes issues and hurts productivity. Will gladly admit that the Numbers app for iPhone is otherwise extremely user friendly and my go to choice. I find it efficient and well polished in all other respects and concerns. thanks
Love.. but wish for a few things:
Bumpitybump
I love working with Numbers.. however, there are a few features I really wish it would do. For instance, I wish that it would allow me to pick non-consecutive lines to highlight in order to apply an edit to it.. whether that edit is formatting, a rule, or a function… I would love the control that highlighting individual, non-consecutive lines to mass edit at once would make my life far easier. I have more than a few times considered buying Excel in order to have this feature for the time it would save me. I do love that I can make outline formatting inside of a cell. This has been vital for more than a few projects. Thank you for this amazing feature. My final complaint would be that the iPad app version will not allow me to adjust margins for printing.. and it would save me much time to adjust margins and or print lines for quick project prints…. But I am fully using Numbers 100% of the time and loving it but for these frustrations.
