Allow me to use "voice control' to place a WhatsApp call
It is annoying to be able to call only people who have facebook with messenger on their phone with voice controlled "hey portal." I keep forgetting who has WhatsApp and who does not.

Enable Apple Music
You can already use Apple Music on all other Echo devices and can play Apple Music on the portal using the Alexa app. So why not just enable it to let me play it with my voice. please!

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…

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!!

Enable voice commands to make WhatsApp calls, where caller doesn't have FB messenger
I've learnt that you can only call someone using voice commands if they already have a FB account. If they only have WhatsApp, it doesn't work. As this device is particularly suited to the older generation who don't get touchscreens and don't have Facebook, this seems like a major oversight.

Give nicknames to multiple portals
I have a Portal TV in the living room and a portal mini in the kitchen in an open floor plan layout. The issue is both will answer if I say, "Hey Portal". It would be great if you could give each portal a nickname, so when you go to answer one of them you could say, "Hey Portal answer Living Room," or "Hey Portal answer Kitchen," and there would be no feedback issues and both portals would not be active.

Problems with voice assistant recognising a name
Is there a way for the voice assistant to recognise a name that sounds the same but has a different spelling?
For example: Carole instead of Carol or Pattison instead of Patterson?

Ifttt
Enable the use of IFTTT for smart home users, I have a portal TV that was bought for me for Christmas and the idea is great but having to change the TV channel manually on an incoming call is tedious and annoying. You do have a great idea here but I don't think a lot of thought went into it

Drop in is a huge feature in our home. I need the drop in feature so I can fully replace my echo. Thanks

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!

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 -

List of actions possible via voice command
I have no idea what commands are possible. With Alexa devices I know everything it does is voice activated, but with portal the available seem more limited. My gran likes to view the slideshow for example, but I can't figure out the command to start it, and she is no use with touch screens, as Will just randomly tap the screen and hope it works

Get the voice activation to work with English UK..
Whats the difference in technology? American voice is not good to hear in the UK. Very poor selling something in UK that can only be used with American voice.

Allow hey portal to work for WhatsApp handling of calls
Important and very essential is the hey portal should be also for WhatsApp. Currently this isn’t available but would be beneficial.
