About This Feature
Overview
WPS Chart on Android helps you turn spreadsheet data into visual charts for trends, proportions, and category comparisons. In WPS Spreadsheets on Android, you can select a data range, insert a chart, and then continue adjusting the chart style, data selection, and quick layout on your phone.
Core tasks include:
- Insert a chart from a selected cell range.
- Edit an existing chart by changing style, data selection, and layout.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Lets you insert a chart directly from a selected cell range in WPS Spreadsheets on Android, then adjust style, data selection, and quick layout. | Microsoft Word supports inserting charts and adjusting chart elements, styles, and filters, with chart data commonly tied to an embedded or linked Excel sheet. | Google Docs focuses on collaborative documents and supports embedding charts from Google Sheets inside documents. | Notion provides chart views for databases, including bar, line, donut, and number charts, with settings for axes, grouping, labels, and display. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on converting spreadsheets, charts, and graphs to PDF for sharing and layout preservation rather than native spreadsheet chart creation. |
| WPS Advantages | Distinct: chart insertion and chart editing happen directly inside a mobile spreadsheet workflow on Android. Advantage: suitable for quickly visualizing selected worksheet data without switching to a separate database or PDF workflow. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft's official guidance here is centered on document-based chart insertion and often works together with Excel data. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs emphasizes collaboration and embedded content, while chart editing is typically handled in Google Sheets. | Compared with WPS: Notion charts are built around database views; free users can try one chart, and chart view does not let you edit database entries directly. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is more suitable for sharing or preserving chart output as PDF instead of inserting and editing charts inside a spreadsheet sheet. |

Overall Conclusion: If your main goal is to insert and adjust a chart directly from spreadsheet data on an Android device, WPS offers a more direct mobile spreadsheet workflow. Other products are better aligned with document collaboration, database visualization, or PDF conversion depending on the task.
