About This Feature
Overview
Level is a field type in WPS Office Smart Table on Android. It displays ratings with stars and is suitable for satisfaction surveys, performance reviews, product evaluations, and other scoring scenarios on mobile devices.
Core tasks include:
- Create a Level field: set the field type to Level in header editing and name the field.
- Enter a rating: tap stars directly to record a score, with 1–5 stars corresponding to values 1–5 that can be referenced in formulas.
This feature is useful when you want faster scoring, clearer visual feedback, and numeric results that can still be used in later calculations.

| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Smart Table on Android supports a Level field for star-based rating entry. Ratings use 1–5 stars and map to values 1–5 for later formula use. | Microsoft’s official Excel mobile feature page shows support for viewing data validation on Android, but it does not describe a native star-rating field in Excel for Android. | Google Sheets on Android supports in-cell dropdown lists. Google also documents rating chips in Sheets, but that documentation is centered on spreadsheet chips rather than an Android field type equivalent. | Notion databases support multiple property types such as Number, Select, and Formula for organizing scoring data, but this is a database property model rather than a native spreadsheet star-rating field. | Adobe Acrobat Sign supports radio button fields for single-choice forms, which is adjacent to scoring input but not the same as a spreadsheet rating column. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides direct star-based entry in an Android Smart Table field. Distinct: the visual rating also keeps numeric meaning for later calculations. | Compared with WPS: the official page emphasizes mobile spreadsheet support such as viewing data validation, not a matching star field workflow. | Compared with WPS: Android input is centered on dropdown lists, so the visual scoring experience is less direct than a star field. | Compared with WPS: scoring can be modeled through database properties, but the interaction is database-oriented rather than direct star entry in a mobile spreadsheet field. | Compared with WPS: Adobe’s official form controls fit document workflows and form collection more than table-based rating entry. |

Overall Conclusion
If you want to record ratings directly in a spreadsheet-style workflow on Android and continue using those results in calculations, WPS offers a closer fit for that task. The other products cover related scenarios, but their official paths focus more on dropdowns, database properties, or form controls.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable for | Main challenge | How Level helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Satisfaction surveys | Service teams and store staff | Text feedback is hard to quantify | Use a Level field to record 1–5 star ratings consistently |
| 2 | Performance scoring | Team leads and reviewers | Mobile score entry can be slow | Tap stars directly to complete scoring |
| 3 | Product evaluation | Operations and testing teams | Ratings are not easy to scan | Show results with stars for faster review |
| 4 | Data analysis | Analysts | Scores are hard to reuse in calculations | Use the 1–5 values in formulas |
| 5 | Field inspection records | Mobile and field staff | On-site entry takes too many steps | Update ratings directly on Android |
