  1. Pin & lock features for participants in a group call

    2 simple features:

    1. A button to pin fullscreen view on a particular person in a group call so it does not automatically change to anyone else

    2. Another button to lock the view while in a call so that the call cannot be ended by naughty kids in the room who press the red shiny button

  2. Wake up name needs to be changable from Alexa

    The wake up name needs to be changable from Alexa. Very annoying if you have an Amazon or indeed human Alexa already in your household!!

  3. Facebook Live manual camera mode.

    We are using a Portal Mini 10" to livestream worship services. It works great except for the camera tracking.
    I can enter manual mode on a call and set the shot exactly the way I want it. Please, please, please, make this possible with Facebook Live.
    Thank you,
    Jason

  4. Its disappointing to find out that to make a call on the portal you have to actually go to the portal and make the call.

    Disappointing that to make a call I have to go to the portal and make a call. I cannot make a call on my phone which links the display on the portal. On the other hand when receiving a call both my phone and the portal rings and its practical if am sitting on the sofa I can answer on my phone and it displays in the portal screen. Why can it not be the same when making a call

  6. Voice Command Answering

    Like many on here, I have a parent with vascular dementia. Portal has been a lifesaver during quarantine, but there needs to be a voice command to answer an incoming video call. Surely, “Alexa, answer this call...” is both feasible and hugely needed!

  9. There needs to be an auto answer feature for disabled/seniors.

    There needs to be an option to allow preferred/trusted contacts to be able to auto-answer from the portal. Some seniors with dementia and other disabilities like my mother are unable to use the device. This is a simple software change that would really make the device a disabled-friendly way of communicating.

  11. add Facebook functionality to Portal TV.

    Can you add a Facebook app so that we can scroll our Facebook wall on the Portal TV, and maximize Facebook live video streams that friends have on their individual walls? During the pandemic I have been following various singing entertainers who give free concerts and it would be nice to be able to pull these up and watch them live on my TV.

  12. TV link

    I have a 10”. Gen 2 portal and would like to use my tv as the screen. Why can’t you plug a HDMI to USB-C cable into the back of portal.

  16. Record video chats

    During this time being "sheltered in place" it would be nice to use the portal to make online posts with video chat guests it has a much better camera than most computers and much easier to use instead of a phone.

  18. Always on clock

    The clock can only be configured to stay on for a maximum of 1 hour after darkness. I purchased the portal primarily for a bedside clock with the benefit of all of the other features. Portal suggested this was to reduce power consumption but surely an always on clock (dimmed through the night doesn't use that much power). Google and Echo seem to manage it ok!

  19. Security view from portal app

    Please add a feature in the portal app to allow owner to use the camera as a security cam since alexa wont do dropin. This is easier to implement than trying to do with Alexa!
