MTD Companion for macOS
Check the Mac version of MTD Companion: macOS requirements, Excel and Numbers mapping, template links, filing subscriptions and the iPhone alternative.
How does the Mac spreadsheet route work?
The developer describes importing on the Mac using a template link, opening an Excel file and mapping cells, or mapping a Numbers sheet. This is the local Mac workflow; the Windows-to-phone QR route is covered separately.
- Check macOS 13 Ventura or later. A spreadsheet running on Windows does not make this a Windows filing application.
- If you use your own workbook, try the vendor’s Excel or Numbers mapping instructions with its structure. For a custom export, ask about the supported import-link fields.
- Before buying, confirm the selected subscription and renewal terms in the app. Read-only access and paid filing have different scopes; the price snapshot below records the vendor’s stated first-year starting price.
