  2. bring back transfer from phone on messenger to a portal device

    Please bring back the feature to transfer from phone using messenger to a portal and vice versa. This was a great feature and was sad to see it disappear.

  3. Control contacts from mobile device

    I would like to be able to more easily show or hide contacts on Portal by using my phone to control the lists instead of doing it directly on Portal.

  5. Schedule and customize the DO NOT DISTURB feature

    I want to be able to schedule the 'Do not disturb' setting, and enter daily start and end times for this setting.
    I don't want it to end at 8am, and I don't want to have to manually turn it on every night.

    My parents are 7 timezones away, plus the 8am definitely doesn't work for everyone.

  6. Stop auto switching fullscreen view

    With a recent "update", Facebook has made a disastrous change to Portal video calling. If we fullscreen anyone in a group call with other windows smaller and on the left, faded out, the fullscreen view doesn't stay on whoever WE have chosen. It automatically changes without any user control over it, depending on whoever talks or some insane weird logic that I can't figure out.

    I can no longer choose to focus on 1 person's big picture all the time (of my choice). It keeps switching the fullscreen view on its own to whoever speaks and makes the other windows…

  7. Enable portal tv speaker in Alexa routines

    I recently bought a Portal TV. Not impressed at all. But I did try to use the Alexa feature with some of my existing routines, that do something to a schedule then announce that it has been done. I can't select Portal TV as the speaker for the announcement. I also can't add it to a speaker group. So not only does it not work with Zoom, it restricts Alexa features too. Never mind, it has silly features like AI, and some other useless apps. Maybe it's intended to fit on a crib.

  8. Audio Input and Microphone Input For Portal

    I'm considering buying Portal, but it dos not meet my needs as a music instructor.

    I would like to recommend that you add an audio line Input and microphone Input to your Portal line? That would level-up the audio quality for doing a workshop and/or incorporating music!

    Best + stay safe,
    Michael

  10. Proper name pronunciation

    Facebook gives you the option of posting your proper name pronunciation in your profile but the portal does not give you the option of using that name pronunciation. For example the portal always mispronunciation our last name because it begins with a ch- for spelling but is pronounced sh-

  11. Allow Portal + remote connection for approved loved one to switch on / off & have a WhatsApp account to use without having a mobile phone

    Mum is in a dementia nursing home without Family access due to Covid. She has no access to a mobile phone as too difficult to use. Being able to set up a WhatsApp account on Portal + despite this for others with WhatsApp accounts to video call would be a game changer. Also for an approved loved one to be able to switch on/off remotely & not be dependant on a Carer for help in the home who is busy caring elsewhere would make a huge difference. Then to be able to drop photos onto the Portal + remotely &…

    As always, thanks so much to everyone who voted for this idea! As part of a recent software update, the ability to move the self-view window during a call has been added to Portal, Potal+, and Portal Mini devices. Simply touch your self-view and drag it to another corner of the screen! As this functionality is not available on Portal TV at this time, we will be marking this idea as started. Thanks and enjoy!

  14. 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 :-)

  15. Include scores in the games.

    My name is Luiza and I am 7 years old. I use the portal a lot to talk and play games with my grandparents which live in another country. I would like to suggest you to add scores in the games so I can see who is winning the game. Also, I would like to ask if you can add other games which is good to play with my grandparents.

  17. Stop playing with app set up for elderly

    Finally ! The volume adjustment fixed on Dad’s Portal at nursing home. The upgrade with the new App button on the contacts screen also seemed to affect the ability to change volume controls with the Hey Portal & Hey Alexa voice controls even with me being in the nursing home … the call volume controls would not appear on the screen until within a call and using the frame buttons to trigger the volume bar on the screen … these updates of the system are causing the ease of past methods to become DINOSAURs 🦖🦕 instead of moving towards the…

  20. Use iPhone keyboard to enter text

    I'm super happy that you finally got Zoom on the Portal TV and now want to buy more.

    One minor feature that it'd be awesome if you could build into your iOS Portal App is the ability to type in Zoom invite details using the iPhone keyboard, like you can with the Apple Remote app on Apple TV.
