Ratings and reviews

Amazing ! Free basic EXCEL and CSV editor ! Very good, easy to use, compatible with other apps ! I use it for my databases like books, movies, music, games, etc. It's even greater now because it supports image covers to create a database for movies, music, games, books, etc. Thank you, developer ! 😊✌️

Simple put, garbage. It didn't save my info after doing inventory and entering all the data. No one or two but three times saved and all the entry disappeared. Unistalling right now.

Developers just can't leave well alone. This was clunky but adequate until it suddenly updated ans demanded access to lots of stuff that doesn't concern it. And had to be uninstalled.

What's new

Version 3.7.2 Refined the drawing of borders. Refined functions of copy/cut/paste.
