About This Feature

Overview

Document Cover lets you turn the first page of a smart document into a dedicated cover page on Android. After it is enabled, the opening page can be used as a presentation area for the document title, theme details, or other front-page content.

The currently available ways to enable it include:

Open Page Setup from the toolbar and turn on Cover Page.
Open Page Setup near the title area and turn on Cover Page.

This feature is useful for reports, proposals, assignments, project notes, and other documents that need a clearer opening page. It also helps you complete basic mobile formatting more quickly.

System Requirements

Item	Requirement
Operating system	An Android device that can run WPS Office normally
App version	The latest version of WPS Office is recommended so the full Page Setup entry is available

Other	You need an editable smart document and normal access to local files or cloud documents

Download & Installation

Before using Document Cover, install WPS Office on your Android device, sign in to your account, and open a smart document for editing.

Capability Summary	On Android, WPS lets you enable a dedicated cover page in a smart document through Page Setup, which is convenient for adding a front page during mobile editing.	Word provides a built-in cover page gallery. You can insert a cover page from Insert > Cover Page and replace the sample text. The official guidance is mainly desktop-oriented.	Google Docs supports cover images in documents. You can add one from the top entry, the Insert menu, or @cover image, and it is shown in pageless mode.	Notion pages support cover images. You can add or change a cover from the page header and choose from a gallery, upload a file, paste a link, or use AI-generated imagery.	Acrobat supports generating a cover page for PDFs through its desktop workflow with Adobe Express integration.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: the Android entry is directly inside Page Setup, which fits quick mobile document editing. Distinct: both available paths stay close to the current document editing view, so the setup path is short.	Compared with WPS: the official guidance focuses on a gallery-based cover page workflow and desktop insertion steps, so the current Android path is less direct than WPS for this scenario.	Compared with WPS: Google Docs focuses on a cover image and requires pageless mode, while WPS uses a cover page toggle that is closer to document structure settings.	Compared with WPS: Notion cover content works more like a page header image than a traditional standalone document cover page.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat cover-page guidance is centered on PDF editing and desktop workflows rather than in-document Android editing.

Overall Conclusion

If you want to enable a front-page cover while editing a document on Android, WPS offers a workflow that stays close to mobile page settings. Other products also provide cover-related features, but many of them focus on desktop workflows, header-style visuals, or PDF editing rather than a document cover-page switch inside Android editing.
