About This Feature
Overview
Insert or delete worksheets in WPS on iOS is a worksheet management feature in Spreadsheet that helps you add a blank sheet to a workbook or remove a sheet you no longer need.
Core tasks include:
- Insert a worksheet: tap the add button on the right side of the sheet tab bar to create a blank worksheet.
- Delete a worksheet: open the floating toolbar for the current sheet, then delete it after confirmation.
This feature is useful when you need to organize multi-sheet workbooks, separate data by topic, or remove unused sheets. Because deleting a worksheet is irreversible, back up important data before you continue.
System Requirements
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Operating system | An iPhone or iPad that can run WPS Office |
| App version | The latest version of WPS Office is recommended |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | On iOS, WPS lets you insert a blank worksheet directly and delete a worksheet from the floating toolbar. | Excel supports inserting and deleting worksheets in a workbook, and its official help page also covers related worksheet management such as renaming and moving sheets. | Google Sheets official help explains sheet editing on mobile, including duplicating, reordering, renaming, and deleting sheets. | Notion mainly organizes information through database views, with multiple view types and view switching, rather than traditional workbook worksheets. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF page management, including deleting pages, rather than spreadsheet worksheet management. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS keeps worksheet insertion and deletion close to the sheet tab area on mobile, which fits quick workbook cleanup and structure changes. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft documents insert and delete actions clearly, but its official guidance also emphasizes broader worksheet management patterns across Excel environments. | Compared with WPS: Google Sheets supports deleting and editing sheets, while the official mobile help flow centers on the sheet tab menu. | Compared with WPS: Notion is better suited to database views and page organization, not workbook-style worksheet insertion or deletion. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is designed for PDF page organization, so it does not address spreadsheet worksheet tasks directly. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS provides direct worksheet add and delete entry points on mobile, which works well for everyday spreadsheet cleanup and lightweight workbook editing. If your work centers on traditional spreadsheet workbooks, WPS is closer to Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, while Notion and Adobe serve different content structures.
