About This Feature

Overview

Rename Worksheet in WPS on iOS is a spreadsheet tab management feature for changing a worksheet name so different data sections are easier to identify in one workbook.

Core task:

  • Rename a worksheet: tap a worksheet tab, open the floating toolbar, choose Rename, enter a new name, and confirm.

Common use cases include monthly report organization, project sheet management, and faster workbook review on mobile devices. It helps when default sheet names are hard to recognize or when multiple sheets need clearer labels in one file.

Capability SummaryOn iOS, tap a worksheet tab, open the floating toolbar, choose Rename, enter a new name, and confirm.Excel officially supports worksheet renaming and documents naming rules such as invalid characters and a 31-character limit.Google Sheets for iPhone and iPad officially supports renaming a sheet from the sheet tab menu.Notion lets users rename a database view, but that object is a database view rather than a spreadsheet worksheet tab.Adobe Acrobat on mobile supports renaming files or folders, but it does not provide a spreadsheet worksheet tab feature.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: the rename entry is directly tied to worksheet tab actions on iOS, which fits quick spreadsheet cleanup on mobile.Compared with WPS: Excel documents worksheet naming rules clearly, while the official page used here is less focused on the iPhone-specific entry path.Compared with WPS: Google Sheets also supports sheet renaming on iOS, but the action is entered from the tab drop-down menu.Compared with WPS: Notion renames database views instead of worksheet tabs, so it is only a nearby workflow.Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF and file management rather than spreadsheet sheet-tab management.

Overall Conclusion
WPS, Excel, and Google Sheets all support renaming worksheet tabs for multi-sheet spreadsheet organization. Notion and Adobe provide adjacent rename workflows for views or files, but they do not replace worksheet-tab renaming in a mobile spreadsheet app.
