What is a bar chart?

A bar chart compares discrete categories using bar lengths on a shared scale. Use vertical columns for short labels and horizontal bars for longer category names.

Supported data

Up to 200 data rows, 8 numeric series and 512 KiB. Include unique column headers. Choose a decimal point or comma; thousands separators and currency symbols are not accepted. Enter zero explicitly: an empty numeric cell is an error.

How to make a bar chart

  1. 1. Add your data

    Paste a table or choose a CSV file. Use the first column for category labels and the next columns for numeric series. Include a header row.

  2. 2. Check and adjust

    Review number errors before building your chart. Choose vertical or horizontal bars and add a title and axis labels.

  3. 3. Download your chart

    Download a PNG, or continue in the app to turn your editable chart into a complete presentation.

Example: compare quarterly results

Each row is a category; each numeric column is a series. The working sample compares two products across four quarters. Replace the sample with your own data.

In the example, Product A rises from 12 in Q1 to 24 in Q4: an increase of 12, or 100%. Product B reaches 22 in Q4. Both series use the same units and a zero baseline.

Example: compare quarterly results

Q1129
Q21814
Q31620
Q42422

When a bar chart helps

Compare categories

Compare products, survey answers or team results using the same unit of measurement.

Track discrete periods

Show totals by month, quarter or year. Keep the periods and units consistent.

Read long labels

Use horizontal bars when category names need more room. Bar lengths should remain easy to compare.

Make the comparison easy to read

Bar lengths represent values. Keep a zero baseline, label your units, and use the same scale for values you want to compare. A missing value is different from zero: check the data before exporting. For a bar chart, categories are discrete; a histogram instead groups numeric observations into intervals.
