メモみたいに軽い、シンプルなスプレッドシート。 CellNotes は「表は欲しいけど、本格的な表計算アプリは大げさ」を解決します。 メモアプリのように軽く開けて、ちょっとした集計までこなせます。 家計簿、買い物リスト、点数の記録、出張費の概算。 「表でメモを取りたい」その場面の、第一選択へ。 ■ できること ・表形式のノートをすぐ作成・編集 ・列ごとに型を設定(テキスト/数値/計算) ・数値列の合計、列同士の計算式 ・行のチェックで消し込み(タスクモード) ・アーカイブと復元(うっかり削除を防ぐ論理削除) ■ CellNotes が「やらない」こと 軽さを守るために、あえて持たない機能があります。 ・多人数での共有・同時編集はしません(個人ツールに特化) ・VLOOKUP や IF などの複雑な関数はありません(合計・平均などの基本集計のみ) ・シート切り替えやセル参照式はありません(1ノート=1つの表) ■ データはすべて端末の中 通信は行いません。あなたのノートは端末内にだけ保存されます。 アカウント登録も不要。開いてすぐ書けます。 ```
