## Can I use Gemini in Google Sheets on my iPhone?

Yes. Open a sheet in the Google Sheets app on iPhone or iPad and tap the Gemini spark icon, as of October 2026. Ask about your data in plain words or tap a suggested prompt like Summarize this table. It's best for quick checks between appointments. For big changes to the sheet itself, like filling whole columns, the computer version gives you more room to work.

## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
This sheet tracks [WHAT IT TRACKS, e.g. my bakery orders for 2026]. Answer in plain words, short enough to read on a phone: 1) What were my top [HOW MANY ITEMS, e.g. 3 products] by money earned in [TIME PERIOD, e.g. October]? 2) What changed most compared with the month before? 3) Is anything unusual, like a big drop or a customer who stopped ordering? Then make one simple chart that shows the biggest change.
```
