how to share in google sheets ipad
IN SUMMARY
Sharing Google Sheets on iPad is easy. You can share the file with specific email addresses, create a shareable link, or send a copy via email or other apps. Collaborators can view, edit, or comment on the shared file.
Sharing Options
Tap the 'Share' icon (person outline) in the top-right corner, enter the email addresses of the people you want to share with, and choose their access level (view, edit, or comment). You can also add a message and send the invitation.
From the 'Share' menu, select 'Get shareable link'. You can then copy the link and share it with anyone you want to grant access to the file. You can also adjust the link settings to control who can access the link and their level of access.
Tap the three-dot menu icon in the top-right corner, select 'Share & export', then 'Send a copy'. Choose the desired file format (e.g., Excel, PDF) and the app you want to use to send the file (e.g., Mail, Messages, WhatsApp).
Collaboration Features
When you share a Google Sheet, multiple people can edit the file simultaneously. You'll see their cursor and any changes they make in real-time. This makes it easy to collaborate on projects or work together on data analysis.
Collaborators can leave comments on specific cells or ranges, facilitating discussions and feedback. To view comments, tap the 'Comments' icon in the top-right corner. You can also reply to comments and resolve them when the discussion is complete.
Google Sheets automatically saves a version history of your file, allowing you to view and revert to previous versions if needed. This can be useful when collaborating with others or if you accidentally make unwanted changes.
Access and Permissions
When sharing a file, you can choose the level of access for each collaborator: 'View' (read-only), 'Comment' (view and leave comments), or 'Edit' (view, edit, and comment). This helps maintain control over who can make changes to the file.
From the 'Share' menu, you can view and manage the list of collaborators. You can change their access levels, remove collaborators, or add new ones at any time.
If you share a file via a link, you can adjust the link settings to control who can access the link and their level of access. Options include 'Restricted' (only people you specify), 'Anyone with the link', or 'Anyone at your organization'.
