A MacBook Pro with the Numbers template chooser open on the screen. The All Templates category is selected on the left and predesigned templates appear on the right in rows by category.

Get started with a template

All spreadsheets begin with a template—a model you can use as a starting point. Replace the template’s charts and data with your own content, and add new tables, formulas, and more.

Create a spreadsheet

A table showing hiking distances. The formula editor is open and shows the SUM function for the Distance column.

Add data to a table

Enter your own data or import data from another file. You can also add a wide range of formulas, like sum or average, to any cell. To organize your data and identify trends, you can add filters, group data into categories, create pivot tables, and more.

Enter text and numbers in tables

A pie chart showing percentages of trails completed. The Format menu is also open, showing different chart styles to choose from, as well as options to turn the chart title or legend on or off, show hidden data, and edit the chart font, colors, and background.

Create a chart

Illustrate your data with a 2D, 3D, or interactive chart. When you make changes to the data in the table, the chart updates automatically.

Add a chart

A spreadsheet tracking hiking information, showing sheet names near the top of the screen. The Add Sheet button is on the left, followed by sheet tabs for Hiking Schedule, Elevation, Trail Segments, Gear, and Food. The Elevation sheet is selected.

Get organized with sheets

Organize your spreadsheet with different sheets for each type of information you want to track—income, expenses, and so on. Then just click a tab at the top of the spreadsheet to switch to the sheet you want to see.

Add sheets

The collaboration menu showing the names of people collaborating on the spreadsheet.

Collaborate in real time

Invite others to work with you on your spreadsheet. Everyone you invite can see changes as they’re made, but you control who can edit or only view the spreadsheet.
