About This Feature

Overview

Table View Comments is a collaboration feature in WPS Office for iOS multi-dimensional tables. It lets you discuss a single record directly inside the table view so conversations stay attached to the related data.

Core tasks include:

Add comments to a record from the comments panel.
Review and manage comments by checking the count, browsing comments in reverse chronological order, and deleting comments when needed.

This feature fits task follow-up, data review, and team coordination scenarios where discussion should stay connected to the record itself instead of being scattered across chat tools.

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	In table view on iOS, you can open a record comment area, add a comment, and identify commented records with a comment icon and comment list.	Microsoft Lists supports adding, replying to, and deleting comments on list items, with an icon that indicates comment status.	Google Sheets supports adding, replying to, editing, deleting, and filtering comments on cells, with comment locations tied to specific cells.	Notion supports comments on database pages or properties, with options to view, reply, resolve, reopen, or delete comments.	Adobe Acrobat supports adding and managing comments in PDF review workflows, which fits document annotation rather than table-record discussion.
WPS Advantages	Distinct: The comment entry is tied directly to a record row marker and Comments tab, which keeps discussion close to a single record and easy to revisit from the row area.	Compared with WPS: supports replies and @mentions for deeper threaded collaboration, but the experience is centered on list items.	Compared with WPS: offers richer comment controls such as edit, filter, and resolve, but comments are attached to spreadsheet cells instead of record cards.	Compared with WPS: supports resolving and reopening comments for longer discussion cycles, but comment entry points vary by database view.	Compared with WPS: fits PDF review and annotation better, not one-to-one discussion on table records.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to keep lightweight discussion attached to individual records in a multi-dimensional table, WPS provides a direct and simple workflow on iOS. If you need more advanced reply, filtering, or resolution controls, other products provide broader comment management in their own product contexts.

Use Cases

2	Data review notes	Operations and analysts	The reason behind unusual data is hard to trace	Leave explanations and handling notes on the matching record
3	Approval discussion	Team leads	Approval notes are separated from business records	Keep supplemental discussion inside the record comments area
4	Review past discussions	Collaborative teams	Older discussions are hard to locate by record	Use the row-side comment icon to find records with comments quickly
5	Clean up outdated comments	Table maintainers	Old comments reduce readability	Delete comments that are no longer needed
