Need Zoom for portal TV

If Zoom is available on other portal devices why is portal tv exempt from this? It’s really frustrating- you can see from the number of people requesting this on feedback that this should be rectified ASAP. I brought the portal tv Thinking that zoom would be possible so this is extremely disappointing and will massively reduce how much I can use this product. PORTAL please can you acknowledge the demand for this update and confirm when this will be available on portal TV.

I am thinking about buying two Portal TVs - one for myself and one for my son who has a severe learning disability and lives in his own house with support. Since the pandemic we have discovered he loves video calling! He will enjoy the other features of the portal as well - but it will be better for him to be able to use it on a big screen, which is why we have decided not to get one of the smaller devices. However, I am having to do lots of Zoom calls, so I would love to be able to use the Portal TV for this. So I would be grateful if you would enable this for the Portal TV as soon as possible. I know you have already done this for the other Portal devices.

I'm a bit less passionate about Zoom than many of the commenters here, in general happy to just use messenger. However there are other activities that we take part in like Girl Guides which make use of Zoom, so it would be beneficial if the Portal TV could support it.
What isn't clear from the reviews and website content is whether Zoom is in fact planned to be brought to the Portal TV, if so, approximately when, and whether it is Facebook that will be providing the Zoom app, or is it Zoom that needs to write an app that will work on the Portal TV (in other words should we all be going to a Zoom forum and nagging them to add the functionality instead)?

With lockdown 3 and many people working from home, zoom would be a great addition to the portal TV. But it needs to be added quick, before people find alternatives

I bought Portal TV specifically for Zoom meetings. Isn't that the very purpose for which it was developed? Why, at the very least, hasn't a release date been announced?

Zoom app was said to be on its way to portal tv by the end of 2020. Customers are still waiting. When will this be added?

Portal tv should support live streaming to fb accounts and to pages accounts for streaming cooking or makeup etc! Plus we need Zoom please!
It’s not worth it to me otherwise!
Get moving fb! X -

Please please could facebook comment on ETA of this feature. I have 2 portals from Amazon that I am about to return if there is no prospect of Zoom appearing in the near future. Portal with its simple one piece of IT to connect onto large TV screen is just perfect for engaing people with dementia (TV screen is much more engaging attention holding and "normal" than computer screen) but without Zoom portal TV has limited use.

Set up Portal TV so that any video conferencing app can access the Portal TV camera and mic. Similar to how a webcam works.

Portal TV doesn't support Zoom Meetings!!!!
I have read numerous posts to the same effect but I havent seen any replies from Facebook (please correct me if there are any). Who on earth in the power corridors of Facebook thought it a good idea not to include it? How many lost sales have they had because of this!!! It would be ideal for zoom meetings, please get off your high horses and make it happen!!! -

Please add Zoom ASAP.

I could not believe it when we got the Portal TV and then found it doesn't support Zoom. Zoom is the gold standard. If you can support it on your other devices, how hard could it be.
I can not recommend Portal TV to others until it supports Zoom.

Seriously, this should be Portal #1 priority! It's a killer device but not so useful without zoom

WhatsApp has to the most confusing and poorly designed interface. The fact that the app needs another device to authenticate is ridiculous. The entire idea of PortalTV is supposed to be simplicity, not confusion.
