About This Feature

Overview

Modify View Name lets you rename the current database view in WPS for iOS so it is easier to recognize and switch between views. Renaming changes only the displayed view name and does not change the data, filters, or sorting settings in the view.

Key capabilities include:

Rename the current view for clearer identification.
Complete the rename action from the Tools panel on iOS.
Keep view organization clearer for personal use and team collaboration.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	In WPS on iOS, you can open Tools at the bottom right, choose Modify View Name, enter a new name, and confirm the change.	Microsoft Lists supports creating, switching, and saving views, and lets users enter a view name when creating or saving a view.	AppSheet views can be renamed, and each view name must stay distinguishable within the app.	Notion database views can be created in multiple layouts, and you can click a view name to rename it.	Adobe Acrobat official help mainly covers 3D PDF view management, not a directly equivalent database-view renaming workflow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: the rename entry is directly available from the bottom-right Tools area on iOS, which fits quick mobile view organization.	Compared with WPS: official guidance focuses more on list or library view management, with less emphasis on a focused mobile rename path.	Compared with WPS: the workflow is more oriented to app building and view configuration.	Compared with WPS: it supports database view renaming, but the guidance is centered on general workspace database management.	Compared with WPS: Adobe documentation is centered on PDF viewing scenarios rather than data-view naming.

Overall Conclusion

If your main goal is to rename and organize database views quickly on iPhone or iPad, WPS provides a direct mobile entry point. Other products also support view naming or view management, but some are more focused on list configuration, app design, workspace databases, or PDF viewing.
