Insert Image in WPS on Android lets you add photos, illustrations, and reference images to a smart document while editing on mobile.

Capability Summary	In Android smart documents, WPS lets you open the Image entry from the bottom + menu, then add images from the gallery, camera, or cloud images. It also supports inserting another image to the right of an existing one.	Word Mobile supports inserting a picture from the camera through Insert > Pictures > Camera.	Google Docs on Android supports Insert > Image and lets users choose an image source.	Notion supports image blocks, common image formats, and image upload or embed workflows.	Acrobat on Android supports adding images to PDFs in Edit PDF mode.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS combines gallery, camera, and cloud image entry points in one mobile workflow. Distinct: after an image is inserted, you can continue adding another image on the right for side-by-side content layout.	Compared with WPS: the official page describes the camera insertion path, but does not show a cloud image entry or right-side continuous insertion in the same workflow.	Compared with WPS: Google Docs supports image insertion on Android, but the official page focuses on the basic insert flow rather than cloud image entry or right-side continuous insertion.	Compared with WPS: Notion supports rich image blocks and formats, but its official help page notes upload size limits by plan.	Compared with WPS: Adobe supports adding images in PDFs, but the official Android help page states that adding images requires Acrobat Premium or Acrobat Pro.

Overall Conclusion: If you need to add photos, gallery images, or cloud images to a document on Android with a compact mobile workflow, WPS offers a focused path for that task. Other products also support image insertion, but their strengths are more tied to their own document, note-taking, or PDF scenarios.
