Cards View is a mobile app feature that makes it easier to view and edit Excel table data on a phone. It shows the table one row at a time in a card-style layout. This view is optimized for small screens and is useful for quick data entry and review. Not all table features are supported in Cards View.
Cards View has two levels: cards and detailed views. Cards present a list of summarized rows that are easy to browse and search. You can also add and delete rows using the triple dot menu option on each card. When you tap a card in the list, a detailed view displays the whole row so you can easily edit its data.
