| Capability Summary | In WPS Presentation on iOS, you can select an image and replace it from multiple entry points. Available sources include Camera, Album, Recent, and Document, and the original image position is kept after replacement. | Microsoft Office provides Change Picture from the Picture Format or Format tab and lets users choose where to get the replacement image. | Google Docs Editors provides Replace image in Docs or Slides, with sources such as computer upload, stock and web, Drive and Photos, camera, and URL. Google Slides also supports drag-and-drop replacement. | Notion lets users replace a media block through the block menu and upload another file or embed an image from elsewhere, mainly for page content blocks. | Adobe Acrobat lets users replace images in a PDF through the Edit a PDF workflow and the Replace image control for selected image objects. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides three direct entry points on iOS for presentation editing. Distinct: after replacement, the image stays in its original slide position and works with Camera, Album, Recent, and Document sources. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft officially documents the desktop-style Picture Format workflow, while WPS is more directly aligned with mobile presentation editing on iOS. | Compared with WPS: Google Slides supports drag-and-drop replacement on desktop, while WPS provides a more touch-oriented replacement flow inside iOS presentation editing. | Compared with WPS: Notion focuses on replacing page media blocks rather than slide-based presentation layout objects. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF image editing rather than presentation slide editing. |

Overall Conclusion: If your main goal is to update an existing picture in a presentation on iPhone or iPad while keeping the slide layout stable, WPS fits that mobile editing workflow well. Other products also support image replacement, but their official guidance is more centered on desktop Office, collaborative page content, or PDF editing.
