ship to two different countries
the idea of portal is 'if you cant be there, feel there' and you offer a discount to buy two. you also offer the option of sending to Different addresses within same country. What about for those in different countries ? Such a simple solution - get around it you lot. I just made you millions more dollars. You're welcome.

Reinstate the automatic pictures that are shared on Portal
I was informed that the automatic pictures on my Facebook Portal are being disabled, mine was. Our units were purchased for us to be able to connect with our children, grandchildren, and in-laws, because of COVID 19. Besides being able to easily video chat we also want to see the photos. With this option now disabled our family has lost that option. I contacted Portal and was told that some people didn't like having their shared photos on a frame. Why was the automatic share option shut down instead of having those that complained being told to no longer share…

Allow video or text messages to be played back on portal.
This would be a great feature for elderly users (like my folks) who cannot manage to access their FB messenger app (like my folks). This would be useful for sending them reminders "Take your meds and call Dr. Larwence in the morning." or sentimental wishes, "I am on my way to the airport now, I hope you have an awesome day." or "Goodnight Grammy!"

Please allow photo booth games to be disabled!
My four year old talks to her grandparents on portal, and now that she's discovered these games within the photo booth app, (there's a cat head one if that helps), it completely derails every single conversation. Even if the whole photo booth app could be eliminated from the primary video call page, that would solve the problem. Don't want to delete forever, but want to be able to customize for her calls.

My mom got her Facebook Portal Stolen...
It would be great that there is some sort of a balck list of devices that can be blocked from working ever again.
Obviously my mom is very mad and would love for who ever got her device to be useless.

Restore fb friends photo sharing
My 92-year old mother received her Pirtal last year for Christmas.
One of her greatest joys was seeing the many photos of her fb friends (out of town children and grandchildren) cycle through on the screensaver throughout the day.
A recent update has changed that. It's difficult for her to go to each persons' account to see their pictures.
Please, could this be reversed?
It's hard enough not being able to have family contact because of covid and the 'no visitor" policy of the nursing home.
Seeing the photos of her extended family was very comforting.

Stories for older kids please
You are missing a huge opportunity by not including kids older than say 4. Grandparents and teachers would welcome stories for say 6-9 that is the age before they get their own phones etc. We need stories that do not moralise or over sweeten. How about some of the best selling authors getting on board?

Introduce option to turn off warm tint on superframe
The superframe by default shows the photos with a warm tint. Only option to avoid this is to turn off the auto brightness. This should be made configurable.

Support for Keyboard, Mouse and client speaker
With removal of YouTube app, It's too difficult to touch the buttons on the browser. Having a support for external keyboards and mouse is going to help many. Also, the option to have portal as a bluetooth client speaker should be enabled.

Incorporate Messenger!!
I am able to use messenger to send a message to my FB family on every device except Portal. I think this would be the perfect device for my parents to be able to keep in contact with their grands but there is no way for my sister and me to just send a message to them to avoid a telephone conversation. Incorporate Messenger

Add the unicorn effect from phone to portal
Why is it that the best effect is only on phones and not portals? What's the point of a portal if it actually does less? Add the unicorn effect.

Reenable screen control on remote portal
I need the remote camera control because my 3 year old doesn't stay in the camera and moves around a lot. The follow camera can't follow her. It was so much better when I could control her camera. I get privacy concerns but make it an option for certain callers something that you can enable. This was the main reason I got a portal

Bring back the photos from Facebook Favorites
This is not something new.....it used to be a feature and it worked very well for elderly people who do not have a smartphone or a computer. It was replaced by a portal app that does not do the same thing and please look at the ratings on the app. Portal users do not like it and are fighting to get it to work.

We need our manual zoom back
We have a 10in portal and brought the portal so we could see our disabled son during lockdown. He is unable to move so we used to be able to zoom in on him but now it zooms about all over the place and we rarely see him.

Removal of time, temperature and upload date from the photo slideshow
Bottom of photos are shaded with a sharp line clearly visible across the bottom third of the screen. With the removal of the time, temperature and upload date, this should remove this shaded area and photos will be clearer.
