About This Feature

Overview

WPS Office Insert Comment on Android is a Smart Spreadsheet feature for adding text notes, feedback, and follow-up context to a selected cell. After a comment is added, a red corner marker appears on the cell so you can quickly identify commented cells.

This feature includes two common tasks:

  • Insert a comment from the floating edit bar or the Insert tab.
  • Manage comments by tapping a commented cell to view, add, edit, or delete comments.

Comments support text input only. Images and attachments are not supported in comments. Each cell can contain multiple comments, and the comments are shown in time order in the comment panel.
