Add the ability to zoom a workbook in the web browser, without zooming the entire browser window.

Thank you all for all of your comments and votes supporting this suggestion.
We are now in the final planning stages towards starting the development of application zoom in the web version of Excel.
We’ll make sure to share more information and updates as we progress.

Zoom works on the bottom right hand side of the sheet but goes back to original size every time the document is open. Can't the zoom size be saved?

I'm currently working on a large spreadsheet where about 1/8 of the width is visible at the standard zoom. If I use the browser zoom to get the whole sheet on screen, the text is unreadable and the ribbon commands too small to use.
Who on earth thought that not having a zoom command was a usable product?

Checked again today, 5th August 2020, zoom is still not available. Waiting but keen for the rollout to get to my area.

I don't have this feature yet, I'm seeing others comment that they have it. Is this being rolled out slowly?

There is confusion, there are comment updates as if the ability to zoom in excel on-line is available. My understanding is that it is still in development and we're still not able to use the very useful feature of zoom in Excel on-line. Would the development team please give a progress update?

Thanks for finally working toward this - when will we see it made available? I accidentally and unknowingly nuked a cell in a sheet shared with 30+ people during a MS Teams meeting by trying to CTRL- to zoom my browser out. Thankfully discovered it in time to avoid chaos.

Cannot believe this is not a feature... well at least they're working on it (after four years since this thread was created).
Any news since March?

If I read someone suggesting "use your browser zoom" I'm gonna freak out... Guess what, if I use my browser zoom than ALL my tabs will have same zoom!

Hello - it's now 2020 - and this request was ID by the community in 2015. It's still not available. Honestly Microsoft, that's ridiculous, particularly given it's such basic functionality. shame on you Microsoft.

It's year 0202 already, I can't belive it is still not fixed. (or........... MS purposely want users to use full app)

Honestly Microsoft, that's ridiculous, particularly given it's such basic functionality that your competitor online platforms have had for years (and for free). Get a wiggle on, it's looking embarassing.
