About This Feature

Overview

Rename Data Table is a table-management feature in WPS Office for Android. It lets you rename data table and dashboard tabs in a multidimensional table so pages are easier to identify during daily work and collaboration.

Core capabilities include:

Rename a data table tab so an old or default name becomes easier to recognize.
Rename a dashboard tab so the page title matches the content being presented.
Let collaborators view the updated name after the table refreshes.

This feature is useful for project tracking, sales follow-up, data summaries, and team collaboration. Renaming changes only the displayed tab name and does not change the data or field structure inside the table.

Capability Summary	On Android, you can find data table or dashboard tabs at the bottom of a multidimensional table, double-tap a tab, and rename it with a new title.	Excel officially supports renaming a worksheet by double-clicking the sheet tab or using Rename from the tab menu.	Google Sheets on Android officially supports opening the sheet tab menu, tapping Rename, and entering a new sheet name.	Notion officially supports renaming a database view by clicking the view name, which applies to database views rather than spreadsheet sheet tabs.	Adobe Acrobat officially supports saving a PDF copy with a different name through Save As, but it does not provide worksheet-tab style renaming.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The Android workflow is centered on data table and dashboard tabs in one place. Distinct: It covers both data pages and dashboard naming inside the same multidimensional table workspace.	Compared with WPS: Excel supports worksheet renaming, but the official page focuses on worksheet tabs and does not cover dashboard tabs in a multidimensional table.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets provides a clear Android rename path for sheet tabs, but it does not include dashboard-tab naming in a multidimensional table.	Compared with WPS: Notion can rename database views, but the object is a database view rather than a spreadsheet-style bottom tab.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat can rename a saved file copy, but it does not offer tab-level renaming inside a table workspace.

Overall Conclusion
If you need to organize data table and dashboard names on Android, WPS is closely aligned with that mobile table workflow. Microsoft and Google focus on worksheet renaming, Notion focuses on database views, and Adobe focuses on file-level naming through Save As.
