I’d like to start off this review by saying what a relief it is to have access to a tool like this on my iPad. SpreadSheet app is by no means perfect, and I do find the interface to be a little clumsy and clunky at times, but I feel that this is sort of inevitable when you’re stuck without a mouse and keyboard.
