Add more stories to story time
I bought Portal to be able to interact with my family across the US. I read to my grandson multiple times per week and we have run out of good stories. Portal needs a larger selection to utilize with young children to keep the program fun and interactive.

Please enable the creation of Facebook Messanger Rooms from Portal devices. Also please add a recording feature to rooms, and let people start using the room even without other guests present. This way the host can set up backgrounds and troubleshoot/test things prior to guests arriving.

Messenger and WhatsApp contacts and Calling
Many of my friends family just use WhatsApp for messaging and video calls, some do not use Facebook, solely relying on WhatsApp for Video calls and messaging. As I understand it when making a video call from my Portal+ it uses Messenger and not WhatsApp. It would be extremely useful to be able to select making a Video call through either Messenger or WhatsApp.

Improve the quality of Netflix and amazon prime
The quality of the video is very bad. I use a smart tv and the Samsung smart hub Netflix and amazon prime apps have much better quality. It seems that the ones on portal tv are either SD quality or something else is not right.

Add option to use Portal TV inbuilt speaker as default output device.
I know that it is lower quality than the speakers in the TV, but it is good enough and is the only way we found for my parents to not hear the start of every one of their sentences repeated back to them.
It should be an option in the software to select audio output device and use the inbuilt speaker instead of needing to go through the TV as this would solve our problems for us. The only way we can currently do this is by attaching a bluetooth speaker to the camera (which repeats all audio back to…

When reading a book that is on the portal my grandchildren cannot see the words that go along with the story. They should be able to see the words so they can follow along and learn the words.

Allow plugin extensions for auth services
We use Webex for our company, but have a VPN service that uses a plugin extension to connect...without that we can't use Webex for work.

Shockingly Bad Customer Service
Portal have the worst, customer service offering of any company I have used in modern times, especially for a tech company like yourselves.
Your AI bots, although seem rather good to start with cannot help at all when manual intervention is required, and once this is needed, the conversation reaches a dead end, and any chance of resolving an issue is gone.
Really really bad. I would not recommend anyone thinking of purchasing this device to do so.

Allow WhatsApp set up without the use of a smart phone / QR code for the elderly.
Grandmother is almost 90, she has a standard phone. She does not like tablets or touchscreens hence why we got her the portal due to the voice commands and she can keep up with the family that is currently dispersed across the country. You should be able to create a WhatsApp account without a QR code or just the web version without a smart phone. In the case that is not possible, it would be much obliged at the least if it was clear at purchase that there is no way around it, as the product is targeted at the…

Please put 5 little monkeys jumping on the bed back in the rotation. Our granddaughter looks forward to this story every evening. Try explaining where it went to a two year old. We haven’t seen her in 4 months due to Covid and it’s been a nightly ritual for our family !

Market to Military families and Military Installations
Military moves, birth events missed, deployments, training exercises in the field, and adapting to new social networks are challenges for military families. Non-military spouses are also having to adjust to networking for a new job in a new area or telework to keep current job. Sometimes a Military spouses current qualifications in one state are not accepted at the new duty location.I recommend outreach and advocacy by Facebook to help with these transitions. I recommend Portal be offered through the Military exchange stores and marketing to military families especially with its capability in may international locations. Portal Pods could also…
