  2. ADD GOOGLE ASSISTANT -

    I have Alexa Show and Alexa doesn't work even half as well as Google Assistant. Add Google Assistant and I know my whole family would buy them. We liked most of what Alexa show has but the one downfall was it constantly saying "hmm, I don't know that one" and we would then have to pick up our phones and ask google.

  8. Allow Portal and Portal+ to use commands in other languages for both ‘’Alexa’’ & ‘’Hey Portal’’

    The reason why i bought Portal was to communicate with my relatives who mainly speak Spanish, i bought them a portal and the so called ‘’language’’ feature only changes the language but the commands remain in English.

  12. Enable all interactions with voice commands

    Anything I do on the screen should be possible with voice commands. Rating the quality of a call, opening/controlling apps, and muting the microphone are all examples of things I have to walk over to the device in order to accomplish. Make it truly hands-free!

  13. Needs More Specific Voice Commands

    If Portal could have better tie ins to the apps it uses it would make a more efficient device, for example, asking Portal to “Open Spotify” is far different than asking Alexa to open Spotify. With Portal, Spotify opens but everything must now use the touch screen. With Alexa, you cannot say “Open Spotify”, this will cause Spotify to just resume the music and nothing on the screen changes. However, the two can work together in a strange way, but only if you open them in the correct order. For example, when you tell Portal to open Spotify, the app…

  14. Add voice command "Hey Portal, turn off the Screen Reader".

    Add a voice command "Hey Portal, turn off the Screen Reader". For those that don't know how to navigate Portal while the Screen Reader is on, this voice command would create a very easy way to disable Screen Reader and return Portal to normal controls in a matter of 5 seconds.

  16. Ability to change the wake word

    We have our entire house covered by multiple Echo devices ( six so far) so we can control the house from anywhere. All the devices have one wake word. Because the portal does not allow the wake word change I have two devices next to each other to perform all functions. I don’t want to change all the devices to Alexa to match the portal because when we had that as a wake word before and it responded to too many similar words.

    Support Alexa routines and activities from the Alexa app. Right now you can't set any activities on the portal from the Alexa app. Portal only does timers and reminders set via portal.

  18. Photo Go Back

    I love superframe. I'd love to be able to say, "Hey Portal, go back!"

    Sometimes it displays a photo that I want to remember/see where/when it was taken and by the time I get over to Portal it's moved on to the next photo.

    I did realize I can touch and slide back, which is okay.

    Thanks for your suggestion. I looked into this and I believe"Hey Portal – pause the music" and “Hey Portal – resume the music” should accomplish what you’re looking for when you have iheartradio music playing. Please let us know if those commands work for you!
