About This Feature
Overview
Gallery View is a visual, card-based view in WPS on Android for data records in multi-dimensional tables. It displays records in a grid of cards so you can review image-heavy content more efficiently on a mobile device.
Core capabilities include:
- Create a gallery view: Add a gallery-style view from the view list.
- Browse records as cards: Review multiple records in a card grid instead of a row-based table.
- Show image thumbnails: Use images from image fields and attachment fields as card previews.
- Work with sorting and filtering: Adjust the visible record range and display order for easier browsing.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | On Android, WPS multi-dimensional tables can display records in a card grid through Gallery View, and the view can be created from the view list with card cover settings available through card management. | Microsoft Lists supports a Gallery layout where you can choose which columns appear on cards, reorder card data, and show column labels. The official page notes that these formatting features are not currently available on mobile. | Google Sheets can create gallery views inside Sheets canvas with card-based layouts plus sorting and filtering. The official page notes that canvas is not available in the mobile Sheets app. | Notion database gallery view supports card preview sources, fit image options, card size, and property visibility settings. | Adobe Experience Manager Assets Lightbox works as a personal image gallery for asset collections, but it is not a record view for table data. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS supports direct gallery-view creation and browsing on Android. Distinct: It combines record cards, image fields, and card management in one mobile table workflow. | Compared with WPS: the official Microsoft page describes gallery formatting mainly for desktop or web use and states that the feature is not currently available on mobile. | Compared with WPS: gallery views depend on Sheets canvas, and the official Google page says the feature is not available in the mobile Sheets app. | Compared with WPS: Notion focuses on database presentation and page layout, without emphasizing a dedicated Android table workflow with a card management entry in the same way. | Compared with WPS: Adobe's closest official capability is an asset gallery collection rather than a gallery view for structured table records. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need to browse image-based records directly on Android, WPS Gallery View is a practical fit for mobile table workflows. Other products also offer gallery-style or card-based displays, but their mobile availability, product focus, or data model differs.
