About This Feature

Overview

Chapter Headings in WPS Office for iOS are a document-structure feature for smart documents. You can apply heading styles to paragraphs to build a clear hierarchy, improve navigation in long documents, and prepare content for structured reading.

Core capabilities include:

Apply heading levels: Set the current paragraph to Heading 1 through Heading 6.
Organize document structure: Use different levels for document titles, section headings, and subsections.
Support easier navigation: Proper heading styles make long documents easier to scan and manage.

This feature is useful for meeting notes, study notes, proposals, and multi-section documents.

Capability Summary	In iOS smart documents, WPS lets you use the Aa text tools to apply Heading 1 through Heading 6 and build a clear document hierarchy.	Word for iPhone supports viewing styles and applying existing styles. Its official feature list does not show adding or customizing styles on iPhone, and adding or updating a table of contents is not supported there.	Google Docs on iPhone and iPad supports Title, Subtitle, and Heading 1-6, and it can insert a table of contents.	Notion supports H1, H2, and H3 headings plus a table of contents block for long pages. On phones, column layouts are shown in a single vertical flow.	Acrobat on iOS focuses on PDF viewing. It supports viewing a PDF table of contents, but not authoring heading styles for document writing.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS supports direct H1-H6 heading assignment inside the same mobile editing flow. Distinct: The heading entry is grouped inside the editing toolbar, which is convenient for writing and restructuring on iPhone.	Compared with WPS: It is more limited to viewing styles and applying existing ones, and table-of-contents updates are not supported on iPhone.	Compared with WPS: It also supports headings and a table of contents, but table-of-contents use depends on heading formatting and print layout settings.	Compared with WPS: It works well for page-based knowledge notes, but heading depth is limited to H1-H3.	Compared with WPS: It is better suited to navigating existing PDF contents than editing heading structure in a writing workflow.

Overall Conclusion
For quick document-structure editing on iPhone, WPS keeps heading controls close to the mobile writing flow. Google Docs also offers a complete heading-and-table-of-contents path, while Notion and Adobe are better aligned with page navigation or PDF reading scenarios.
