Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides a thumbnail view in text documents on iOS, so you can preview all pages and tap a page to jump to it. | Word provides page browsing in the Navigation pane, where users can choose a thumbnail image to go to that page; the cited help page applies to Word for Windows. | Google Docs highlights pageless mode, document tabs, smart chips, and collaboration features on its official product page, but the page does not describe page thumbnail navigation for document pages. | Notion focuses on sidebar navigation, nested pages, search, and workspace organization rather than page thumbnails for paginated documents. | Acrobat provides page thumbnails in the navigation pane so users can preview pages and jump quickly to a selected page. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: Direct page thumbnail navigation is available for multi-page text documents on iOS. Distinct: The source feature description shows no membership restriction for this feature. | Compared with WPS: the cited official guidance emphasizes the desktop Navigation pane and specifically notes Word for Windows. | Compared with WPS: the official product page emphasizes continuous writing and collaboration structure instead of page thumbnail navigation. | Compared with WPS: the official help content is built around workspace and page hierarchy navigation, not page thumbnails for document pages. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat page thumbnails are centered on PDF viewing and page management workflows. |
| Official Source | — | Use the Navigation pane in Word | Google Docs product page | Navigate with the sidebar | Page thumbnails and bookmarks in PDFs |
Overall Conclusion
WPS Thumbnail is well suited to reviewing the structure of a multi-page text document on iOS and moving to a target page with a direct tap. Compared with products centered on collaboration spaces or PDF page management, it fits everyday mobile document browsing more closely.
