About This Feature

Overview

Email is one of the field types available in WPS Office multi-dimensional tables on iOS. It is used to store email addresses and helps check whether the entered content follows a standard email format. After you create an email field, you can enter email addresses in each record for contact management, notification lists, and business information collection.

Core capabilities include:

Create an email field: set the field type to Email in the header editing panel.
Enter an email address: fill in a standard email address in record details.
Check email format: review and correct entries when the address format is incomplete or invalid.

Capability Summary	On iOS, WPS lets you create an email field in a multi-dimensional table, enter email addresses in records, and use format-aware entry for structured data management.	Outlook for iOS supports adding existing email accounts and completing authentication for mailbox access and sync.	The Gmail app on iPhone and iPad supports adding Gmail and non-Gmail accounts, including manual IMAP setup.	Notion Mail supports Gmail-based email account connection and lets users add another Gmail account.	Acrobat for iOS focuses on PDF viewing, sharing, and sending copies rather than table-based email field management.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: stores email addresses as structured table data inside records; Distinct: field setup and data entry stay in the same table workflow.	Compared with WPS: focuses on account connection and email use, not structured field management inside a table.	Compared with WPS: focuses on inbox aggregation and account setup rather than table field entry.	Compared with WPS: focuses on Gmail-connected mail views and account use, with a weaker fit for structured table data entry.	Compared with WPS: focuses on PDF workflows and file sharing, without an equivalent table email field feature.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to store email addresses as structured data inside table records, WPS Email is a better fit for everyday information management on iOS. The other products focus more on mailbox setup, inbox workflows, or PDF sharing, so their use cases are different from a table field designed for email data.
