Users can tap the Gemini spark icon in a compatible spreadsheet, ask questions about the data, generate analytical insights, and create charts directly from their iPhone or iPad. Suggested prompts such as “Summarize this table” and “Analyze for insights” are provided to help users get started.\n\nThe feature follows earlier releases on the web and Android and began a gradual rollout on October 15, 2026, with visibility expected within up to 15 days.
