About This Feature

Overview

Gallery View New/Delete Records is a gallery-based record management feature in WPS Office for iOS. It lets you create new records as cards and remove records you no longer need from a gallery view in a smart table workflow.

Core capabilities include:

  • Add a record: Create a new card from the add-record button in gallery view.
  • Delete a record: Open record details and remove the record from the edit page.
  • Card-based display: Newly added records appear as cards in the gallery view.

This workflow is useful for quick content collection, lightweight project tracking, and card-style information management on mobile devices.
