About This Feature
Overview
Presenter View is a built-in presentation playback feature in WPS Office for iOS. It helps presenters view the current slide, the next-slide preview, speaker notes, and a timer during a slideshow so they can manage pacing more smoothly.
Core capabilities include:
- Turn on Presenter View during playback for presentation support.
- Start Presenter View playback from the Tools menu in editing mode.
- Use playback support controls such as next-slide preview, speaker notes, timer, pen tools, and page navigation.
This feature is useful for classroom teaching, project updates, and meeting presentations. It helps when you need to keep track of notes and slide order while presenting on a mobile device. For users searching for how to use presenter view on iPhone or iPad, this workflow keeps presentation controls and notes in one place.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | On iOS, WPS Presenter View can be opened during slideshow playback to show the current slide, next-slide preview, speaker notes, and a timer, with pen tools, page navigation, and orientation switching. | PowerPoint Presenter View shows the current slide, next slide, and speaker notes, and also includes timer, annotation, zoom, and slide-jump controls. Its official guidance focuses on desktop and multi-monitor presentation setups. | Google Slides supports Presenter view with speaker notes, multi-monitor presentation options, annotations, and presentation controls. Its official guidance mainly describes browser-based presentation on a computer. | Notion Presentation Mode turns a page into slides by splitting content with divider blocks and supports fullscreen navigation, but its official help states that speaker notes are not supported. | Adobe Acrobat on the web provides presentation creation workflows and AI-generated presentations, but the official page does not describe a playback view equivalent to speaker notes plus next-slide preview during presenting. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS keeps notes, next-slide preview, timer, and pen controls inside the mobile slideshow flow. Advantage: It provides two entry paths, from slideshow playback and from the Tools menu. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft provides broader desktop presenter controls, but its official guidance is centered on desktop and monitor-based presentation rather than a direct iOS playback path like this workflow. | Compared with WPS: Google Slides is more dependent on browser and external-display workflows, so its presenter support path differs from an in-app iOS slideshow flow. | Compared with WPS: Notion is suitable for page-based presentations, but its official help says speaker notes are not supported. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on creating presentation content rather than a presenter-assistance playback view. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need a mobile presentation workflow that keeps notes, next-slide preview, and pacing tools together during playback, WPS Presenter View fits that iOS scenario well. Other products support presentation tasks in their own ways, but their official guidance is more focused on desktop, browser, page-based, or content-generation workflows.
Use Cases

| 3 | Sales or pitch sessions | Sales and business users | Need a mobile-friendly presentation workflow without switching views often | Start Presenter View and keep playback controls in one interface |
| 4 | Portfolio or project showcase | Students and design presenters | Need to mark key points while presenting | Use the pen tool during playback to annotate content |
| 5 | Live Q&A sessions | Speakers and hosts | Need to adjust pacing based on audience questions | Use next-slide preview and navigation controls to move through content flexibly |
