About This Feature

Overview

Field Management in WPS Office for iOS helps you manage fields in a multidimensional table from one place. You can view fields, add new fields, edit field settings, hide fields, delete fields, and adjust field order.

Core tasks include:

  • Open Field Management to review all fields and manage visibility, edits, deletion, and ordering.
  • Add a new field with a field name, field type, and field properties.

This feature is useful for project trackers, business records, and team data tables. It helps reduce repeated column-by-column adjustments and keeps table structure updates more organized on mobile.

Capability SummaryIn the Field Management panel on iOS, WPS lets you review fields in one place and perform hide, edit, delete, drag-to-reorder, and add-field actions.Microsoft Lists officially supports adding, editing, moving, hiding, and deleting columns, but its official page notes that these features are not currently available on mobile.Google Sheets on iPhone and iPad officially supports adding, moving, and deleting columns for basic mobile column management.Notion database properties support creating, editing, deleting, and hiding or showing properties in a database.Adobe Acrobat supports adding, deleting, and rearranging form fields in PDF forms, which is an adjacent workflow rather than table field management.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: On iOS, WPS provides a focused Field Management panel for reviewing, hiding, editing, deleting, reordering, and adding fields in one workflow.Compared with WPS: Microsoft documents broader column management, but its official page says the feature set is not currently available on mobile.Compared with WPS: Google supports mobile column insertion, movement, and deletion, but the official page does not describe a dedicated field-management panel.Compared with WPS: Notion focuses on general database property configuration, with a different workflow from table-view field structure management.Compared with WPS: Adobe is designed for PDF form fields rather than multidimensional table field structure management.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Field Management is well suited to maintaining multidimensional table structure directly on iOS, especially when you need to handle visibility, edits, ordering, and new fields from one panel. Google Sheets is closer to basic mobile column actions, Notion is closer to database property setup, and Adobe Acrobat is centered on PDF form fields.
