About This Feature
Overview
Send To helps you continue working with a PDF on iOS by sending the current file to another device signed in with the same account, or by saving the file to WPS Cloud so you can open it on a computer later.
Core tasks include:
- Sync through WPS Cloud: save the file to WPS Cloud, then view and continue working with it on a computer signed in to the same account.
- Use Send To: open More from the top menu and send the current document to a device already signed in to your current account.
This feature is useful when you move between phone and computer, need to transfer a PDF to another device quickly, or want to continue working on the same file across devices.
