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.

Add the ability to add the portal to Alexa device groups
I love my home automation and would love to have the full featured Alexa in the device so I don't have two devices in my kitchen.
One feature I am missing is the ability to add the portal to a group so it can turn a room lights without specifying what room I am talking about.
Right now the portal is invisible in groups.

Support Alexa routines
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.

Voice Command Response Delay Option
I brought the portal for my family relative who is paralyzed.
He has the ability to talk but cannot do so quickly as he has had a tracheostomy. As you can tell voice command speakers and phone settings are a lifesaver for him giving him some personal freedom.
However the portal responds very quickly after the command 'hey portal' It would be great if there could be a update to delay the voice command response giving my family member time to give the full command. I would really be a helpful tool for him and would honestly give him such…

Change Alexa’s name
Please, please make an update that allows a change of name from Alexa to “Echo” or “Computer” anything else (like Amazon allows). Our daughter is named Alexa, and I’m sure anyone with an Alexis or Alex or similar names is struggling with this. I recently connected my Amazon account to my Portal so I can access my music from there, and every time I call my daughter it interrupts / messes up. Those of us with family members or friends named Alexa (or variations of it) would really appreciate it. I have to disable my camera and microphone in order…

Allow the portal to activate by using another name besides “Hey Portal”. My mother is 90 and isn’t familiar with the term portal.
Allow portal to activate by using another name besides “Hey Portal.” The term Portal is unfamiliar to my 90 year old mother. If she could say a normal name that she’s familiar with it would be helpful.

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!

Control Spotify with voice, and set Spotify as default music app
Portal should be on par with Echo when it comes to voice controlling music (and other apps). When I say "Alexa, play music" it should open up the Spotify app and continue playing music, just like it does on all my other devices. Now, all Alexa says is "this device is not supported". Also, I should be able to set Spotify as my default music app, which I currently cannot do.
I say this as a Portal TV owner.16 votes -
