| Capability Summary | You can insert an existing signature or create a new one in an iOS document. Supported methods include handwriting, camera capture, and importing from the photo album. | Word supports inserting a signature line and inserting a scanned handwritten signature as a picture in a document. | Google Docs supports eSignature requests and signing workflows for eligible Google Workspace or Workspace Individual users. | Notion supports uploading images, files, and media blocks, but its help content does not describe a built-in workflow for formal document signature insertion. | Acrobat focuses on PDF signing workflows and supports digital signatures with verified identities. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The signature workflow is built directly into document editing on iOS and supports handwriting, camera capture, and album import in one path for quick mobile document signing. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft documents emphasize signature lines or inserted signature pictures, while the WPS iOS flow is more direct for adding a signature inside a mobile editing session. | Compared with WPS: Google emphasizes eSignature request workflows and eligibility-based access, rather than a lightweight insert-into-document path for general mobile editing. | Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with page content and file management, not a dedicated document-signature insertion flow. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is more focused on PDF signing and certificate-based workflows; for quickly inserting a signature image into an iOS document, WPS is closer to this task. |
