About This Feature

Overview

Comments in WPS Office for Android are a collaboration feature for Smart Forms records. They help teams discuss a specific record while keeping the discussion attached to the related data. This Android comments guide also helps users looking for how to comment on a record in WPS Office.

Core tasks include:

  • Add comments: Enter and send a comment in a record’s comment area to add context or feedback.
  • Manage comments: View the total number of comments, browse comment history, and delete comments that are no longer needed.

This feature is useful for task follow-up, data review, team collaboration, and record-level notes. When discussions stay with the record, it is easier to review context later without switching between multiple tools.

Capability SummaryIn Android Smart Forms tables, you can open the Comments tab from a record row marker, add comments, review comment history, and identify records with comments through an icon.Microsoft Lists lets users add, reply to, and delete comments on list items, and shows a comment icon next to items with comments.Google Sheets supports adding, replying to, filtering, editing, deleting, and resolving comments on cells, with a comments panel for review.Notion supports comments on database pages, a comments pane, and actions such as reply, resolve, edit, and delete.Adobe Acrobat supports adding and managing comments for PDF review, but its comment workflow is centered on PDF documents rather than table records.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: Comments stay attached to individual Smart Forms records, which fits record-based collaboration on Android. Distinct: The comment entry point is tied to the record row marker, so opening and posting comments stays close to the data row.Compared with WPS: Microsoft Lists supports replies and @mentions, which gives a deeper threaded discussion flow, but it is built around list items in Microsoft Lists.Compared with WPS: Google Sheets offers a broader comment workflow with edit, filter, and resolve actions, but its comments are cell-based rather than record-row based.Compared with WPS: Notion offers flexible page and database comments, but its workflow is more page-oriented than row-based table collaboration.Compared with WPS: Adobe Acrobat is stronger for PDF review comments, but it is not a direct record-comment workflow for table data.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Comments on Android are a practical fit for teams that want lightweight discussion directly on Smart Forms records. If your work centers on following up individual table records, WPS keeps the comment path close to the data. Other platforms may offer broader discussion controls, but they often focus on cells, pages, or PDFs instead of record rows.
