Google Sheets

What Google Sheets is for

Google Sheets is a mobile spreadsheet app for creating, editing and reviewing tables, calculations and other structured data. It suits students, office workers, small teams and anyone who needs to check or update a spreadsheet away from a desktop. Files can be used as part of the wider Google Workspace setup, making the app a practical choice for people who already work with Google Drive and related services.

Useful tools for everyday spreadsheets

• Open, edit and save Microsoft Excel files alongside Sheets documents.
• Work with spreadsheets when offline, then sync changes when a connection returns.
• Share documents with other people and collaborate on the same sheet.
• Use formulas, formatting, charts and familiar spreadsheet controls from an Android device.
• Review earlier versions of a document when you need to track or undo changes.

Using it on Android

The mobile layout brings spreadsheet controls to a smaller, touch-based screen. It is well suited to checking figures, making quick edits, entering records and reviewing shared work. Larger tables can be less comfortable to navigate on a phone than on a computer, but the app remains useful for routine updates and for keeping work moving between devices.
