About This Feature
Overview
Priority Feature Settings is a management and sending feature for WPS collaboration chat on Windows. It helps administrators configure urgent-message rules, restricted recipients, in-app pop-up limits, and whitelist rules, while also allowing members to send urgent messages and check read status.
Core capabilities include:
- Open the Priority Feature Settings page from the enterprise admin console.
- Set members or departments that cannot receive urgent messages or in-app urgent pop-up reminders.
- Set daily usage limits for in-app pop-up urgent messages and create whitelist exceptions.
- Send an urgent message from a chat conversation.
- Configure urgent delivery in a group chat by selecting recipients.
- Turn on in-app pop-up urgent delivery before sending.
- Check whether an urgent message has been read.
This feature fits internal urgent notices, cross-team coordination, group-chat confirmation, and centralized message reminder management.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports admin-side configuration for restricted members or departments, in-app pop-up urgent limits, whitelist rules, urgent sending in chat, and read-status feedback. | Microsoft Teams supports marking messages as Important or Urgent, and official pages also describe messaging policies and read receipts. | Google Chat supports notification controls, @notify, @silent, and conversation-level notification settings, but the cited help pages do not show the same admin-side urgent rule workflow. | Notion supports comments, mentions, inbox notifications, and page-update alerts, with a stronger focus on document and workspace collaboration than live urgent chat delivery. | Adobe Acrobat supports shared review links, comments, replies, and review tracking for PDFs, focusing on document review rather than urgent chat messaging. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS combines admin rule management and member-side urgent sending in one workflow. Distinct: It includes restricted recipients, daily pop-up limits, whitelist exceptions, and read feedback in the same feature set. | Compared with WPS: Teams clearly supports message priority and policy control, but the cited pages do not present the same combined workflow for restricted recipients, whitelist exceptions, and daily pop-up limits in one place. | Compared with WPS: Google Chat is more centered on notification behavior and message visibility, and the cited pages do not show the same enterprise admin configuration flow for urgent-message controls. | Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with page comments and mentions than real-time urgent chat escalation. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF review collaboration and does not provide the same urgent chat message flow in the cited materials. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS Priority Feature Settings is a practical fit for teams that need both centralized urgent-message controls and member-side sending steps in the same workflow. For organizations that rely on urgent reminders, recipient restrictions, and read confirmation in daily collaboration, this setup is easier to manage consistently.
