Update Numbers

I am not finding a quick way to update my Numbers application, I am several version behind and Apple is not auto-updating. Help? Thank you.

Check the App Store to see if any app updates are available; it's also possible that the newer versions of Numbers are incompatible with your device. For more support, check the following article: If you can't download or update apps on your Mac - Apple Support. If an iPhone or iPad is being used, use this article: If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support.

iOS runs iPhones (iPads run iPadOS). Your Mac runs macOS.


Is your M1 Mac itself up-to-date? There was an OS update not too long ago. The current macOS is 12.1 (21C52) on my Intel Mac mini. That's the build number in parentheses which you can find by clicking on the OS version in "About this Mac" under the Apple menu.


If your OS is up-to-date & Numbers still crashes, delete it from Applications & re-download it from the Mac App Store.
