About This Feature

Overview

WPS Video Messages on Windows are used to send local video files in group chats or one-to-one chats. Before sending, you can review the selected file in a preview window. After sending, the video appears as a card in the conversation and can be played directly in chat without downloading it first.

Core tasks include:

Select a local video file from the message composer.
Preview the video before sending.
Play the sent video directly in the chat window.

This workflow is useful for team updates, walkthrough sharing, issue reproduction, and other communication scenarios where video explains more than text alone.

Capability Summary	Supports sending local video files in group or one-to-one chats, with a preview step before sending and direct playback from a video card in chat after sending.	Microsoft Teams supports recording and sending video clips up to one minute in chats, group chats, and channel discussions, with playback inside the conversation.	Google Chat supports attaching files from a computer, including up to 20 image or video attachments at a time, and lets users open shared video files from the conversation.	Notion supports uploading MP4 and other media to pages or embedding online videos, with a focus on page-based content rather than chat messaging.	Adobe Acrobat supports adding video and audio to PDFs and playing media inside documents, with a focus on document delivery rather than chat conversations.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: the video sending flow stays inside the chat composer; Distinct: you can confirm the selected video with thumbnail, file details, and duration before sending.	Compared with WPS: Teams emphasizes recording and sending short clips in its official workflow.	Compared with WPS: Google Chat emphasizes file attachment and shared file management, and the cited page does not show a pre-send video confirmation window.	Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with page content organization than real-time chat video messaging.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat centers on multimedia inside PDFs instead of chat-based collaboration.

Overall Conclusion: WPS Video Messages are more directly aligned with chat-based video sharing on Windows, especially when you want to choose a local file, review it, and send it from the conversation flow. If your main need is page publishing or PDF-based media delivery, Notion and Adobe Acrobat serve different use cases.
