About This Feature

Overview

Document Cover is a page setup feature in WPS Office for iOS smart documents that helps you add a cover page at the beginning of a document.

Its main uses include:

  • Turning on the cover page option from the toolbar path in page settings.
  • Turning on the cover page option from the title area path in page settings.
  • Organizing the first page of a report, proposal, or other structured document more quickly on mobile.

This feature is useful for report formatting, proposal preparation, and document opening-page cleanup. It helps reduce manual first-page layout work and gives you two common entry points for the same setting.

Capability SummaryWPS on iOS lets you open Page Settings in a smart document and turn on a Cover Page toggle directly.Official Microsoft guidance for Word on iPad says there is no built-in cover page or title page feature like the desktop version, so users generally create one manually.Official Google Docs help for iPhone and iPad covers title styles, headings, and tables of contents, but does not describe a built-in cover page toggle.Notion supports page covers and icons for page presentation, but this is page decoration rather than a document cover-page setup feature.Acrobat for iOS focuses on PDF viewing and editing, and its iOS help does not describe a document cover creation workflow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS provides a direct cover-page switch inside Page Settings on iOS smart documents, which keeps the workflow short for first-page setup.Compared with WPS: Word on iPad lacks a built-in cover-page entry and typically requires manual layout.Compared with WPS: Google Docs on iOS supports title styling, but not a direct cover-page switch for document setup.Compared with WPS: Notion covers are visual page banners rather than formal document cover-page settings.Compared with WPS: Acrobat on iOS centers on PDF handling and does not document an iOS document-cover creation feature.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to add a document cover page quickly on iOS, WPS offers a more direct in-document setup path. The other products listed here focus more on manual layout, title styling, page decoration, or PDF workflows, so their mobile experience is not the same as a dedicated cover-page setting.
