About This Feature
Overview
Comment History helps you review comments that have already been marked as resolved in a document. It is useful for tracing collaboration decisions, checking earlier discussion results, and reopening a comment thread when follow-up is needed.
On iOS, you can open Comment History from the More (☰) menu in the document editing screen. After you find a resolved comment that needs more discussion, use Reopen to bring that thread back into the document.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In the iOS document editing screen, WPS lets you open Comment History, review resolved comments, and reopen a comment thread. | Word supports replying to comments, resolving them, and reopening resolved comments. Resolved comments remain available in the Comments pane. | Google Docs on iPhone and iPad supports viewing all comments, replying to comments, and resolving comments for mobile collaboration. | Notion provides a comments pane, filtering by resolved status, and the ability to reopen resolved comments. | Acrobat supports marking comments as resolved and filtering comments by resolved status in review workflows. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides a direct Comment History entry for reviewing resolved discussions and reopening them from the same workflow. | Compared with WPS: Word supports resolved and reopened comments, but the experience is centered on the Comments pane. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs on iOS emphasizes viewing, replying to, and resolving comments; its public iOS help page does not highlight a separate comment history entry. | Compared with WPS: Notion supports resolved-comment filtering and reopening, but its workflow is built around page collaboration. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat focuses on PDF review rather than document-body collaboration. |
| Official Source | — | Give and receive feedback in Word | Use comments, action items, and emoji reactions | Comments, mentions and reactions | Track shared PDF reviews in Acrobat |
Overall Conclusion
If you want to review resolved comments and continue a discussion from your phone or tablet, WPS offers a straightforward workflow for that task on iOS. Other products also support resolved comments, but their public workflows are more focused on a comments pane, page collaboration, or PDF review.
