QuickSheet by GnomeApps is a tiny, instant spreadsheet that lives in your Mac's menu bar. Hit a keyboard shortcut and you're
sums, and the dozens of micro-tasks you'd rather not open Numbers for.
No signup. No subscription. No ads. No data collected, ever. Free for life.
Key Features:
- Always one shortcut away. A customizable global shortcut opens QuickSheet from anywhere on macOS.
- Detach from the menu bar into a regular window when you want more space.
- Real formulas: SUM, AVERAGE, IF, COUNT, MAX, MIN, and more. A1 references, live recalculation.
- Conditional formatting presets — color cells by rule (empty, duplicate values, greater/less than, text contains).
- Freeze top row and freeze first column. Pin headers while you scroll.
- Formula-preserving paste from Google Sheets and Excel. Copy a formula cell and QuickSheet keeps it as a live formula, not
just the displayed number. Internal copy/paste preserves formulas plus bold, italic, alignment, and colors.
- Paste and Clean Table (⌘⇧⌥V) — strips messy line endings, BOM, blank rows, and trailing whitespace from web-copied tables.
- CSV import and export. Drag a .csv onto the grid or use File → Import/Export. Works smoothly with Numbers, Excel, and Google
Sheets via CSV/TSV.
- Native macOS menu commands for Find (⌘F), Focus Grid (⌘J), Freeze toggles, and more.
- Excel-style keyboard editing: Enter / Tab to commit and move, F2 to edit, Esc to cancel, type to overwrite.
- Local-only. Everything stays on your Mac. No network calls. No analytics. No telemetry. No iCloud sync.
QuickSheet is built for speed, simplicity, and privacy. Your data is yours alone. Free forever, no hidden costs, no in-app
purchases.

Nice start, but needs work
asciino
This app is exactly what I was looking for, form-wise and *technically* gets the job done. But the UI is super finicky and needs a lot of QOL improvements. A few examples of issues I've found:- Selecting a cell should allow me to immediately start typing without needing to click on anything else. Currently, it only lets you start typing in a cell if you have the input textbox already selected.- Hitting Enter while in a cell doesn’t automatically confirm the input and then move to the next cell like you would expect, it just deselects everything. You could type '=4+4' in a cell, hit Enter, it returns 8, but then you have to use your cursor to change cells or edit the cell you just updated. It makes any sort of quick work impossible, which is what I would want this specific app to do.- If you open the app, enter a formula (like the one above), hit Enter, close the app, and then reopen the app, the "Rows" textbox is selected by default. That's very weird behavior. This seems like it could be an easy fix by having the app select the last edited cell on wake.Overall, it's a great start for a free app, but the UX is very unintuitive and it being a menu bar app makes it trickier since one misclick could minimize the app. If this functioned like Google Sheets or Excel, I would gladly pay money for this.
Fixes typing into a selected cell with Japanese, Chinese and other input methods, where the first keystroke was entered as a plain letter instead of starting composition.
