Common questions about Share File on iOS usually involve file format, file size, and whether recipients can keep editing; this FAQ covers 3 frequent questions.
FAQ
What file format is sent with Share File?
- When you use Share File for a presentation, the default file format is .pptx.
- Recipients can open the file in WPS or other apps that support .pptx.
- If the recipient needs to keep editing, it is recommended to use software that supports presentation editing.
Is there a file size limit?
- After WPS starts Share File, final delivery can still depend on the limits of the destination app.
- If a third-party app restricts attachment size, large files may not send successfully.
- In that case, try another sharing channel or reduce the file size before sending.
Can the recipient edit the file after receiving it?
- Share File sends a presentation file copy, which is suitable for continued editing.
- As long as the recipient opens it in software that supports .pptx, they can usually keep editing the content.
- If you want to limit editing, apply encryption or another permission-control method before sharing.
