Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In the WPS Mail compose window on Mac, you can manually run Spell Check to scan the email body for English spelling mistakes and review correction suggestions. | Outlook for Mac can automatically detect languages in email drafts and spell check as you type, with misspellings marked in the message body. | Gmail checks spelling and grammar while you write and lets you accept or ignore suggestions in the draft. | Notion AI can fix spelling and grammar in written content, but it is mainly an AI writing workflow rather than a dedicated email editor. | Acrobat can check spelling in editable PDF text, but the workflow is centered on PDF editing instead of email composition. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the check entry is placed directly in the email editing toolbar, which fits a quick pre-send review workflow on Mac. | Compared with WPS: Outlook emphasizes automatic detection and language settings during email composition. | Compared with WPS: Gmail combines spelling and grammar suggestions, but the workflow is tied to Gmail's web-based compose experience. | Compared with WPS: Notion relies on AI writing assistance, so its email workflow alignment is weaker. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat focuses on editable PDF text rather than email writing. |

Overall Conclusion
