Add or delete a graph in Keynote on iPhone

When you create a graph in Keynote, you type graph data in the Graph Data editor (not in the graph itself). If you later make changes in the Graph Data editor, the graph updates automatically.

Add a column, bar, line, area, pie, doughnut or radar chart

  1. Go to the Keynote app on your iPhone.

  2. Open a presentation, tap the Content Hub button in the toolbar, then tap the Tables and Graphs button.

    The add graph menu.
  3. Tap 2D Graphs, 3D Graphs or Interactive to see the types of graphs you can add, then swipe left or right to see more options for each type of graph.

  4. Tap a graph to add it to the slide, then drag it to where you want it.

    When you add a 3D graph, you see the Rotation control at its centre. Drag this control to adjust the graph’s orientation.

    If you add a doughnut chart and want to resize the centre hole, tap the Format button, tap Graph, then drag the Inner Radius slider to make the opening larger or smaller. You can also tap the percentage below Inner Radius and enter a new value.

  5. To add data, tap the graph, tap the Forward button, tap Edit Data, then do any of the following:

    • Enter data: Tap placeholder text, then enter your own data.

    • Change whether rows or columns are plotted as a data series: Tap the Configure button in the toolbar, then tap an option.

  6. Tap the Done button.

Add an interactive graph

Interactive charts can be used to show data such as sales by group over time, expenses by department and population changes by region per continent. The example below shows the growth of three species during a three-year period.

Three stages of an interactive graph, each showing a different data set.

You can interact with the graph using a slider and buttons or buttons only.

  1. Go to the Keynote app on your iPhone.

  2. Open a presentation, tap the Content Hub button in the toolbar, tap the Tables and Graphs button, then tap Interactive.

  3. Tap a graph to add it, then drag it to where you want it.

  4. To add data, tap the graph, tap Edit Data, then do any of the following:

    • Enter data: Tap placeholder text, then enter your own data.

    • Change whether rows or columns are plotted as a data series: Tap the Configure button in the toolbar, then tap an option.

  5. Tap the Done button in the toolbar.

  6. To change the type of control used for interacting with the graph, tap the graph, tap the Format button, tap Graph, then tap Buttons Only under Interactive Graph.

    If you can’t see Interactive Graph, swipe up from the bottom of the controls.

You can add a Magic Graph build effect to an interactive graph, which animates the different graph data series. See the task below.
