WPS Office review

WPS Office suits people who want something that looks and behaves like Microsoft Office without the subscription. Kingsoft bundles Writer, Spreadsheet, Presentation, PDF and Photo into one lightweight app, and the free Standard version runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS, plus a web editor. The PDF side is a real strength: you can view, edit, convert and sign PDFs, and turn them into Word, Excel or PowerPoint files without a second tool. WPS AI can draft documents from a prompt, build editable slide decks from a short description and summarize PDFs. Cloud documents support live co-editing with cursors, comments and access controls. The free plan has 1 GB of cloud storage against 20 GB on paid plans, and Pro+ AI features stop for the day once you hit a usage limit. Pricing is the confusing part: the US App Store lists more than ten in-app plans, from WPS VIP Monthly at $3.99, and WPS notes its website prices apply to PC and Android.
