Please add feature to allow a link from one workbook to data in another workbook. The feature needs to enable update of the linked data. This feature already exists in Excel 2016 and 2013.

Add the ability to grab data from sensors on the phone e.g. GPS location
There are a lot of use cases for a mobile phone or tablet in using data that basically involve collecting data in the field then analysing it on a spreadsheet once back in an office. Why not just add the ability to grab the data on the mobile versions of Excel?

Ability to open any file, even if not editable
I have some files that have macros in them that I would like to be able to view without running the macros.
It would be even better if I could add data to them and not break the macro portion so when I open later in a desktop version I can run the macros on the new data.17 votes -

Hyperlinks Within a Workbook Should Go Directly to the Cell
Currently, all hyperlinks require the user to click the cell and then click again to navigate the hyperlink. This makes sense when the hyperlink is to a webpage as you don't want the user being taken somewhere they don't want to go.
However, if the hyperlink is simply to a cell or worksheet within the same workbook, then the user should be taken there directly without having to confirm the jump. This would make navigating with the Excel iPad app a lot easier.

Add support for trendline generation on mobile (iOS/Android) apps
I teach highschool science in a schoolboard that has invested heavily in a BYOD setting and the O365 platform. We do many correlational studies in our science program and having students able to easily generate trend lines on their data sets would make the mobile apps much more powerful to use.
16 votesThanks for the feedback. We are planning to add this feature to the mobile apps.
Thanks,

Merge Across option.
Please provide the "Merge Across" option under edits on our iPads because it doesn't even exist. It exists in Windows PC, but some how this option is not available in our iPads. Basically the Merge Across option lets you merge two or more tabs across.

Opening Excel file from other app should not be read only
When I open an Excel file into the Excel app from an email, I want to be able to edit it before deciding whether to save it or not. Excel always open files from other apps as read only, so I have to make a local or cloud copy to do anything. This is annoying as it will take up space with Excel files that I may never use again.
Another example, is that I may want to open an Excel file from an email, make a few edits and email it back without saving it locally.

Check mark box functionality
We need to be able to check and uncheck the check mark boxes in Excel. I switched back to using numbers because they have this functionality and Excel doesn't.
