| Capability Summary | In iOS smart documents, WPS can show access data and basic file details together, including views, viewers, editors, word count, file name, owner, creation time, document type, file size, and storage location. | Word for iPhone provides mobile document viewing and editing help, but its public iPhone help page does not describe a dedicated document access data panel. | Google Drive on iPhone and iPad provides Details & Activity so users can review file activity and related changes. | Notion pages can show updates, page history, and properties such as created time, created by, last updated by, and last edited time. | Acrobat for iOS provides PDF viewing, sharing, commenting, and subscription-based tools, but its public iOS help page does not describe a dedicated mobile metadata panel for document properties. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS combines access data and basic file details in one entry, which is useful for quickly checking document usage and file attributes on mobile. | Compared with WPS: the public iPhone help content focuses more on general editing and file actions, without clearly describing access statistics in one document info view. | Compared with WPS: Google documents file activity well, but the public guidance focuses more on activity and versions than on a single in-document panel for both access statistics and basic attributes. | Compared with WPS: Notion is stronger for page updates and database properties, while document-style file details are spread across page history and property views. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat focuses more on PDF reading, commenting, and editing workflows, and its public iOS guidance does not highlight document access statistics. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS Document Information on iOS is a practical fit when you want to review document access status and basic file details from one mobile entry. Other products cover adjacent needs such as page history, cloud activity, or PDF workflows, but WPS is more direct for this specific smart document information view.
