About This Feature
Overview
Delete Slides is a page management feature in WPS Office for iOS presentations. It helps you remove slides you no longer need so you can shorten a deck and organize the slide order more efficiently.
Core tasks include:
- Delete a single slide: Select the target slide in editing mode and remove it directly.
- Delete multiple slides: Open slide browsing view, select multiple slides, and delete them at once.
This feature is useful for trimming presentation content, cleaning up draft pages, and preparing a final version before sharing.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports deleting a single slide in iOS presentation editing mode and also supports deleting multiple slides after entering slide browsing view. | Microsoft PowerPoint officially explains deleting a slide on a mobile device through the slide thumbnail pane, with the guidance focused on single-slide deletion. | Google Slides officially explains that on iPhone and iPad you can touch and hold a slide to delete it, and you can also tap multiple slides before deleting them. | Notion Presentation Mode turns page sections into slides with divider blocks. Its official help page focuses on building and presenting slides rather than a direct single-slide deletion action. | Adobe Express supports deleting a page in presentation page management and also supports skipping a page instead of deleting it. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS covers both single-slide deletion and multi-slide deletion in one mobile editing workflow. Distinct: the delete path is tied to the slide editing toolbar, which is convenient for quick deck cleanup on iOS. | Compared with WPS: the official mobile guidance emphasizes deleting through the thumbnail pane, and the page does not focus on the same in-flow batch deletion path described here. | Compared with WPS: Google Slides also supports multi-select deletion, but the action depends on touch-and-hold selection before deleting. | Compared with WPS: Notion is designed around turning page content into a presentation, so slide-by-slide deletion is not the focus of this feature. | Compared with WPS: Adobe Express offers both delete and skip page actions, with its official guidance centered on the page management bar. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS provides both single-slide deletion and multi-slide deletion for presentation editing on iOS, making it practical for organizing slides directly on a mobile device. If your main goal is to clean up a deck quickly while editing, the WPS workflow stays close to the current presentation view.
