Why can’t I find my file after I save it?

  1. First, confirm whether you used Save or Save As.
  2. If it was the first save, review the path, file name, and file format you selected during the save process.
  3. If it was a regular save, check the document’s current storage location first.
  4. If you used Save As and selected local storage, WPS Cloud Documents, or another cloud service, check that specific location.

What should I do if I see a storage space warning while saving?

  1. Check whether your phone has enough local storage space.
  2. Remove files you no longer need and try saving again.
  3. If you still need to keep the document, save it to cloud storage and confirm that enough cloud space is available.
  4. If you have added another cloud storage service, you can switch to that location and save there.

How do I keep the original file and create a new version?

  1. Open the document you want to manage.
  2. Go to More and then Save As.
  3. Choose a new save location or change the file name.
  4. Tap Save to create a new file copy.
