Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In WPS Sheets on iOS, users can open Screenshot directly inside a spreadsheet, select an area, add pen annotations, and then save, send, or copy the result. | Microsoft Office supports inserting a screenshot or screen clipping into files, mainly in desktop Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. | Google Docs highlights online document creation, collaboration, and cross-device editing, but the product page does not describe a built-in screenshot tool inside documents. | Notion supports uploading, embedding, cropping, and managing images and files, which is useful for organizing screenshots that already exist. | Adobe Acrobat provides image, PDF creation, and editing workflows that are useful for processing screenshot results afterward. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: direct in-sheet screenshot capture and simple annotation on iOS; Distinct: the result can be saved, sent, or copied immediately for mobile follow-up. | Compared with WPS: the official guidance focuses on inserting screenshots into desktop Office files rather than an in-sheet iOS screenshot flow. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on collaboration and document editing, not a spreadsheet screenshot entry inside the app. | Compared with WPS: Notion focuses more on image upload and content organization than immediate screenshot capture during spreadsheet editing. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses more on post-capture PDF or image processing than direct screenshot capture inside a spreadsheet editing view. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need to capture spreadsheet content quickly on iOS and mark it up before saving or sharing, WPS keeps the workflow more concentrated inside the spreadsheet view. The other products cover screenshot insertion, media management, or post-processing, but they do not match this in-sheet mobile scenario in the same way.
