TableEdit
TableEdit is a free, Mac-native spreadsheet application designed as a lightweight alternative to Numbers, Excel and other feature-rich spreadsheet programs. It offers formulae, charts, cell styling, import and export of Excel and CSV files, and integration with macOS features like autosave, document versioning and iCloud. The app is intended for users with straightforward spreadsheet needs who prefer simplicity and performance over advanced functionality. TableEdit is distributed free of charge from the developer's website.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionTableEdit appears to be no longer actively maintained — the vendor's website states that technical support is no longer available, and the latest available version (1.4.9) has not been updated for several years. There is no evidence of a native Apple Silicon build. The app currently runs under Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs, but will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028). For users who need a lightweight spreadsheet solution, consider switching to Apple Numbers, which is free with every Mac, runs natively on Apple Silicon, and offers comparable ease of use with more active development and support. For more advanced spreadsheet work, Microsoft Excel also ships a native Apple Silicon build and remains the industry standard. If you have critical files in TableEdit format, export them to CSV or Excel now so you can migrate to another tool before the September 2028 deadline.
