About This Feature

Overview

Form View in WPS Office for iOS is a data entry view in multi-dimensional tables. It turns a data table into a record-by-record form interface, which is useful for data collection, surveys, registrations, and other mobile entry scenarios.

Core tasks include:

  • Create a form view from an existing data table.
  • Automatically generate form fields based on the fields in the current table view.
  • Sync submitted form data back to the same data table and other related views.

Capability SummaryOn iOS, WPS lets you open a multi-dimensional table, create a Form View from the view list, generate fields from the current table view, and sync submitted records back to the same table.Microsoft Forms lets users create a form, add question types, and preview the form, with a workflow centered on standalone form creation and collection.Google Forms lets users create online forms, send them to respondents, and review responses and analysis, with a workflow centered on standalone forms.Notion Forms connects forms to databases, where questions map to database properties; official guidance notes that creating and customizing forms is done on desktop and web apps.Adobe Acrobat web forms focus on publishing web forms and collecting filled or signed responses, with an emphasis on web distribution and e-sign workflows.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS can turn an existing multi-dimensional table view into a mobile-friendly entry form and keep the submitted data in the same table used by other views.Compared with WPS: Microsoft Forms focuses on a separate form product flow rather than a form view generated directly from the same multi-dimensional table on mobile.Compared with WPS: Google Forms focuses on standalone form sharing and response analysis rather than switching within the same multi-dimensional table view structure.Compared with WPS: Notion has clear database-linked forms, but its official help states that creating and customizing forms cannot currently be done on mobile devices.Compared with WPS: Adobe Acrobat web forms are better aligned with web publishing and signature collection than with record entry inside a multi-dimensional table view on mobile.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to enter data on iOS directly from an existing multi-dimensional table, WPS Form View provides a more table-connected workflow. If your priority is standalone surveys, web form publishing, or e-sign processes, the other products also provide relevant options, but their data structure and usage flow are different.
