FAQ

Q1: Can the recent list be viewed across devices at most?

  • Solution: The recent list displays records of recently operated documents. After signing in to your account and enabling cloud sync, the recent list can be synced across devices.

Q2: How to completely disable recent list records?

  • Solution: File records in the recent list are automatically updated and cannot be completely disabled. It is recommended to hide the list or manually delete open records.

Q3: Documents in the recent list cannot be opened across devices?

  • Solution: Sign in with the same WPS account and verify whether the document is a local file on the original device that has not yet been uploaded to the cloud. It must be uploaded to the cloud before it can be viewed across devices.

Notes

  • Recent list records are bound to the WPS account and synced across devices
  • The recent list only displays file access paths and does not occupy cloud space
  • Hiding recent records only hides the open file records; it does not delete them
