Document Information in WPS Office for iOS lets you view the basic properties of the current file in one place. After opening this page, you can check the file name, file size, file type, and storage location, which helps you confirm what the file is, how much space it uses, and where it is saved.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Lets you view the current file name, size, type, and location directly in a document on iOS for quick file checks. | Microsoft Office supports document properties and metadata, including fields such as title, author, subject, keywords, and file system properties. | Google focuses more on file details, ownership, and access information in Drive and Docs, with file details closely tied to sharing controls. | Notion focuses on page properties and database properties for structured information management rather than a traditional file properties page. | Adobe Acrobat provides document properties and metadata tools for PDF files, including property and metadata management around PDFs. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: On iOS, the path is short for checking the current file name, size, type, and location while you are already inside the document. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft covers broader metadata fields, but its property model is more extensive than a quick mobile file-info check. | Compared with WPS: Google emphasizes cloud file details and sharing permissions more than a compact in-document file property view. | Compared with WPS: Notion is better suited to database-style page properties than to checking standard office file attributes. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is centered on PDF property and metadata workflows, while WPS is more direct for checking common document basics in a mobile office app. |

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to check the current file name, size, type, and location quickly on iOS, WPS provides a direct in-document entry for that task. If you need deeper metadata editing, database-style property management, or PDF-focused property controls, the other products may fit those scenarios better.
