About This Feature

Overview

Create and Delete Worksheets in WPS for iOS is a spreadsheet management feature that helps you adjust the number and structure of worksheets in a single file.

Core tasks include:

  • Create a worksheet: add a new blank worksheet from the sheet tab bar at the bottom.
  • Delete a worksheet: remove an unneeded worksheet from the sheet tab menu.

This feature is useful when you want to organize multi-sheet data, separate content by topic, or clean up extra tabs in a workbook. After a worksheet is deleted, the action cannot be undone.

Capability SummaryIn WPS spreadsheets on iOS, you can create a worksheet from the bottom tab bar and delete a worksheet from the sheet tab menu.Excel officially supports inserting and deleting worksheets, including using the New Sheet plus icon at the bottom or the sheet tab menu.Google Sheets on iPhone and iPad officially supports deleting a sheet from the sheet tab menu and also supports sheet management actions such as duplicate, rename, and reorder.Notion officially supports creating databases, adding new pages, and adding views, but its structure is based on databases and views rather than worksheet tabs in a spreadsheet grid.Acrobat for iOS officially focuses on PDF viewing, sharing, and subscription-based PDF editing, with no native worksheet-tab workflow equivalent to spreadsheet sheet creation or deletion.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS keeps worksheet creation and deletion in the same spreadsheet interface, with controls centered around the bottom tab area for quick mobile sheet management.Compared with WPS: Excel also supports worksheet insertion and deletion, but the official page is a broader Excel help page rather than an iOS-specific worksheet flow.Compared with WPS: Google Sheets supports deleting and managing sheets on iOS, but the official iOS page emphasizes edit actions around existing sheet tabs more than a dedicated create-sheet entry.Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with database pages and views, so it is not a direct worksheet-tab replacement for cell-based spreadsheet editing.Compared with WPS: Acrobat is designed for PDF workflows, so it does not provide a same-category worksheet creation and deletion feature.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to manage multiple worksheet tabs directly on an iPhone or iPad, WPS provides a mobile-friendly worksheet flow inside the spreadsheet interface. Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets offer similar sheet management, while Notion and Adobe Acrobat are better suited to database or PDF scenarios.
