Allow user to disable the "portal" voice commands
Please give us a way to disable the Portal Plus voice commands. It is beyond frustrating that when I am on a video call and mention the word 'portal' it wakes up & interrupts me, turns my audio down, dims my video while it tries to interpret my conversation as a 'command'!
If it only responded to "Hey Portal" that would be OK, but simply responding to "Portal" is unacceptable.
Obviously turning the microphone off is NOT the solution :-)

I second that. I see, that Meta has been ignoring your post for 20 months now.
I use video calls rather often and that annoying voice assistant keeps interrupting with something like this and that cannot be done during a call. And guess what. I don't even use the word Portal or Hey Portal.
Within an hour of conversation, it does that four-five times. It's very frustrating.

Agreed! Also when using story time or other features it constantly suggest commands across the screen and blocks the view. How is an app useful if the entire time it’s suggesting voice prompts.
