About This Feature
Overview
Merge Favorites is a message-organizing feature in WPS collaboration chat on Windows. It lets you combine multiple chat messages into one favorite entry so you can review and find important conversation content more easily later.
Core tasks include:
- Enter multi-select mode to switch from a single message to batch selection.
- Merge selected messages into one favorite entry for easier organization.
- Open the favorites list to review the merged result in one place.
This feature is useful for project discussions, meeting note retention, and saving key conversation highlights. It helps reduce repeated single-message saving and keeps related messages together instead of scattered across a long chat.

Overall Conclusion
