About This Feature
Overview
Insert Hyperlink is a built-in link feature in WPS Office for iOS smart documents. It helps you add clickable links to document text, then edit, remove, open, and view those links more clearly inside the document.
Core capabilities include:
- Insert a hyperlink: add display text and a target link at the current position.
- Edit a hyperlink: update the existing link text or destination.
- Remove a hyperlink: keep the text while removing the link relationship.
- Open a hyperlink: go directly to the linked destination from the document.
- Title view for hyperlinks: display the linked page title instead of a raw URL for easier reading.
This feature is useful for research notes, project documents, shared references, and mobile document review when you need to organize web resources in one place.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | WPS smart documents on iOS support inserting, editing, removing, and opening hyperlinks, plus a title view for linked content. | Word for iPhone supports adding a link from Insert > Link and lets users enter display text and the destination address. | Google Docs on iPhone and iPad supports adding, editing, and removing links, with text and URL fields in the app. | Notion supports page links, block links, and web page mentions, with an emphasis on connected pages and previews. | Adobe official guidance focuses on adding and editing links in PDFs, mainly in Acrobat PDF workflows rather than iOS document authoring. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS keeps hyperlink insertion, editing, removal, opening, and title-based display in one mobile document workflow, which fits continuous document editing on iOS. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft clearly documents mobile link insertion, but the cited page does not show a title-view style display for web page titles. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs on iOS also supports link add, edit, and remove actions, but the cited page does not show a title-view display. | Compared with WPS: Notion is stronger for page relationships and mentions, while direct hyperlink editing in a traditional document flow is less central. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is more focused on PDF link editing, so the workflow is less aligned with smart document writing on iOS. |
