Zoho Sheet for iPad: Improved UI, external keyboard support, and more!

Zoho Sheet for iPad: Improved UI, external keyboard support, and more!

The portability and capabilities of the iPad have made it an essential device in the business world. With this in mind, we had launched an exclusive Zoho Sheet app for iPad, with device-specific improvements and enhanced usability. Now, we're improving the experience of iPad users further with a revamped interface for the Sheet app!



The best of both worlds

Work comfortably on your spreadsheets, with or without a keyboard! Zoho Sheet's enhanced user experience and handy touch gestures empower you to work on the go at any time. We also support external keyboard and trackpad actions, making it easier than ever to work from the comfort of your own desk.

Switch easily between portrait and landscape modes on your iPad with Zoho Sheet's customized user interface.


Other updates:

Apart from the user experience improvements, we've introduced a few new features to our iPad app. Let's look at what they are and how they can help you:


Predefined Templates 

Quickly create sales trackers, invoices, inventory trackers, and more using predefined templates from Zoho Sheet.



RichText Formats

Apply multiple formats, like bold and underline, or add hyperlinks to the characters or values inside a cell.



Icon Set 

Besides Classic and Color Scales in conditional formatting, you can now pick from 24 different icon sets and visualize your data based on custom rules.



Custom Sort 

Organize your data based on multiple columns or a column other than the first in your sheet using Custom Sort.



Recommended Pivot Tables

Spending too much time building pivot tables? Simply pick your desired pivot table from the recommended list and efficiently complete your reports!



Notifications

Real-time notifications keep you informed of updates to spreadsheets shared with you and comments made inside your spreadsheets.



Places

Open or save your spreadsheets from/to third-party cloud drives, like Google Drive, OneDrive, Box, and Dropbox—directly from the Sheet app.



The new interface and features are now available in the App Store. Here's the link. Be sure to try out the latest version of the Sheet app and drop your feedback in the comment section below, or write to us at ios-support@zohosheet.com.

      • Scan hard copies of receipts and convert them into spreadsheets

        While getting tables from books or numbers from reports into spreadsheets means you get to visualize and analyze the data better.
