What is Numbers?
Numbers is Apple's spreadsheet application for Mac, iPhone, iPad, and iCloud. On macOS it is used to create, edit, organize, and share spreadsheets ranging from simple lists and budgets to data-rich reports and charts. The app includes templates, formulas and functions, sorting and filtering tools, pivot tables, categories, and interactive charting features for analyzing information visually. Numbers also supports importing and exporting common formats such as Microsoft Excel, CSV, and PDF, which makes it useful in mixed-software environments. Collaboration features let people work on the same document through Apple's cloud services, and users commonly encounter the app as part of Apple's productivity suite alongside Pages and Keynote. The bundle ID com.apple.Numbers identifies the macOS app within the system.
