Ergonomics suitable for grandparents, people with disability and those who are less tech-savvy
Hello
I bought a Portal TV for my grandfather. Was expecting the ergonomics to be suitable for some who older and is less tech-savvy.
We have found the buttons on the remote are small and difficult to use if you have poor dexterity and the UI is cluttered with unnecessary options.
Can you provide ergonomic hardware and an update to greatly simplify the interface?
The sorts of things that I was expecting would be
Large buttons on the remote
Options menus hidden
Removal of feedback requests
Unused apps/messaging platform hiddenEssentially following a true mobile-first design methodology.
I am happy…

Option to disable only built-in microphone in Portal TV
Echo problem is very common with portal tv, making the experience on the other end annoying. Even with external Bluetooth conference speakers, it doesn't resort. It would be good to have an option to disable only built-in microphone.

Make Portal TV available for announcements ftom within an Alexa routine. It can be selected as a speaker to make an announcement.
You can tell Alexa to make an announcement via the Portal TV, where it appears in the list of available devices to make the announcement from. But if that announcement is part of an Alexa routine, Portal TV does not appear in the list of available devices. I can't see any reason for this omission and in practice it means I have to keep an Echo Dot near the Portal TV rather than being able to use it elsewhere.

When you send someone a video message using the portal, it should appear on a portal!
When you send a video message to someone on your portal, it should show a message is waiting on your portal! I have found that it will only appear on your phone. It should be there when you open your portal. Also, add more stories for story time. THANKS!! CAROL

Add a "mute audio" button to the screen during video chat.
I bought these to use between two stores I have as an open channel so I can talk with my employees. When I get a phone call or a customer walks in, I have to physically go to the device and keep tapping "volume down" until the audio is off to mute the audio. I want a button on the screen like the buttons for me to mute MY mic and pause MY video but to mute THEIR audio that is playing on the device. It can be an option to turn on, or however you like, but this is…

also, when i initially purchased facebook portal there was a feature where you can switch/transfer videocalls: messenger to portal, portal back to messenger app on phone :(

really appreciate all the effort, bud but you know that's not what i'm talking about they were portal features before, the diversity hires
really appreciate all the effort, bud
but you know that's not what i'm talking about
they were portal features before, the diversity hires pulled them out
like tim cook managing apple ... the portal devs are very poor copies of the originals
portal wasn't even broken to begin with ... it had REALLY COOL well thought out
features
that these mediocre diversity hires pulled out because those features were too
complicated for them TO IMPROVE UPON

Fix the HDMI socket on the Portal TV so it doesn't block HDMI detection of all HDMI-connected devices to the television
Start responding to your customers who are seeing this common defect - either that, or stop selling a defective product.

bring back transfer from phone on messenger to a portal device
Please bring back the feature to transfer from phone using messenger to a portal and vice versa. This was a great feature and was sad to see it disappear.

Schedule and customize the DO NOT DISTURB feature
I want to be able to schedule the 'Do not disturb' setting, and enter daily start and end times for this setting.
I don't want it to end at 8am, and I don't want to have to manually turn it on every night.My parents are 7 timezones away, plus the 8am definitely doesn't work for everyone.

Stop auto switching fullscreen view
With a recent "update", Facebook has made a disastrous change to Portal video calling. If we fullscreen anyone in a group call with other windows smaller and on the left, faded out, the fullscreen view doesn't stay on whoever WE have chosen. It automatically changes without any user control over it, depending on whoever talks or some insane weird logic that I can't figure out.
I can no longer choose to focus on 1 person's big picture all the time (of my choice). It keeps switching the fullscreen view on its own to whoever speaks and makes the other windows…

Enable portal tv speaker in Alexa routines
I recently bought a Portal TV. Not impressed at all. But I did try to use the Alexa feature with some of my existing routines, that do something to a schedule then announce that it has been done. I can't select Portal TV as the speaker for the announcement. I also can't add it to a speaker group. So not only does it not work with Zoom, it restricts Alexa features too. Never mind, it has silly features like AI, and some other useless apps. Maybe it's intended to fit on a crib.

Audio Input and Microphone Input For Portal
I'm considering buying Portal, but it dos not meet my needs as a music instructor.
I would like to recommend that you add an audio line Input and microphone Input to your Portal line? That would level-up the audio quality for doing a workshop and/or incorporating music!
Best + stay safe,

Proper name pronunciation
Facebook gives you the option of posting your proper name pronunciation in your profile but the portal does not give you the option of using that name pronunciation. For example the portal always mispronunciation our last name because it begins with a ch- for spelling but is pronounced sh-

Allow Portal + remote connection for approved loved one to switch on / off & have a WhatsApp account to use without having a mobile phone
Mum is in a dementia nursing home without Family access due to Covid. She has no access to a mobile phone as too difficult to use. Being able to set up a WhatsApp account on Portal + despite this for others with WhatsApp accounts to video call would be a game changer. Also for an approved loved one to be able to switch on/off remotely & not be dependant on a Carer for help in the home who is busy caring elsewhere would make a huge difference. Then to be able to drop photos onto the Portal + remotely &…
