Add column, bar, line, area, pie, doughnut and radar charts in Numbers on iPhone

To create any type of chart, you can add a chart to a sheet first, then select the table cells with the data you want to use. Or you can select the data first, then create a chart that displays the data. Either way, when you change the data in the table, the chart updates automatically.

You can import a spreadsheet with charts from Microsoft Excel or Numbers for Mac. The imported spreadsheet might be somewhat different from the original. For example, if an imported spreadsheet has a chart with trendlines or error bars, you won’t be able to edit them or add new ones.

Tip: You can learn about different chart types in the Charting Basics template. With the document manager in browse view, tap Choose a Template, tap Basic, then tap Charting Basics. Tap the tabs near the top of the template (Column and Bar Charts, Interactive Chart and so on) to view the different sheets — each sheet explains a different type of chart.
