Portal lets you feel like you're in the same room with friends and family, even when you're far apart.
Portal from Facebook is smart video calling with Alexa Built-in. Easily video call friends and family on their smartphones and tablets with WhatsApp or Messenger, even if they don't have Portal. Enjoy an effortless video calling experience for large groups with Messenger Rooms, which lets you start or join calls of up to 50 people.
Smart Camera pans and zooms to keep up with the action, and automatically adjusts to keep everyone in view. Smart Sound enhances the voice of whoever is talking, while minimising background noise. Portal is private by design and all calls are encrypted. You can easily disable the camera and microphone, or block the camera lens with a single switch.
Experience even more together with the ever-growing AR experiences library on Portal. Become some of your children's favourite storybook characters with Story Time, where well-loved tales come to life with music, animation and immersive effects. Display your Instagram and Facebook photos directly to your Portal with the mobile app. You can even share photos during calls.
With Alexa Built-in, you can ask a question, set a timer, add items to your shopping list, control your smart home and more. Facebook Live makes it easy to broadcast hands-free to family, friends and fans. With additional account activations, you can enjoy music, videos, news, games and more from our growing list of partners, including Spotify and Deezer. You can also work smarter from home with partners such as Zoom and Workplace from Facebook.
