About This Feature
Overview
Hyperlink is a field type in WPS Office multidimensional tables on iOS. It is used to store and display URL links, so you can enter display text and a link address in a record, then open webpages, documents, or other online resources from the table.
Core tasks include:
- Create a hyperlink field: set the field type to Hyperlink in header editing to add a new link column.
- Enter link content: fill in display text and the hyperlink address in record details so the content becomes clickable.
This feature is useful for resource libraries, project references, customer information tracking, and other table-based workflows that need a central place for external links.

|---|---|
| Operating system | An iPhone or iPad that can run iOS apps |
| App version | It is recommended to use the latest version of WPS Office |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In multidimensional tables on iOS, WPS lets you create a Hyperlink field and enter both display text and a link address in record details. | Microsoft Lists supports list column types for storing and displaying different kinds of data, with hyperlink-related setup tied more to list column configuration. | Google Sheets supports hyperlinks through the HYPERLINK function and link insertion in cells. | Notion databases support a URL property that opens a website link in a new tab when clicked. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on adding and editing hyperlinks in PDF files for document navigation and web links rather than table-field link management. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS combines display text and link address entry inside one record workflow, which fits mobile table management well. | Compared with WPS: hyperlink handling is more tied to list column setup and rich text or list configuration rather than a multidimensional table field flow. | Compared with WPS: hyperlink creation is mainly cell-based through formulas or inserted links in spreadsheet cells. | Compared with WPS: the URL property opens links directly, but the editing and display model is centered on database pages. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF link editing and does not provide a directly equivalent multidimensional table field workflow. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need to manage link information inside a multidimensional table on iOS, WPS provides a field-based workflow that fits structured table records well. Other products also support links, but their official workflows are oriented toward list columns, spreadsheet cells, database properties, or PDF editing rather than the same mobile table-field scenario.
