FAQ

What should I do if saving fails because of low storage space?

  1. Check whether your Android device has enough available local storage.
  2. Delete unnecessary files or clear app cache, then try saving again.
  3. If needed, save the file to WPS Cloud or another available cloud storage location.

Why do I need to choose a file name and format the first time I save?

  1. A newly created spreadsheet does not have fixed file information before its first save.
  2. WPS needs the file name, location, and format to create the formal file.
  3. After the first save is complete, you can use Save again to keep later edits.

Will Save As overwrite the original file?

  1. In normal use, Save As creates a new file.
  2. You can change the save location, file name, or file format during the process.
  3. As long as you do not use exactly the same target information as the original file, the original file remains available.
