Gutted

So sad to hear this is being stopped. I use it remotely to change my parents who donโ€™t deal in technology. To lose this feature and ease of operation itโ€™s depressing. This is the best app ever for the device.

Fantastic

Great way to stay in touch with the family
Always loading photos which are displayed on the portal through the portal app which is easy to use
Family memories and occasions just a tap away
Thank you Portal
Great present to gift x

Facebook Portal helped through the Pandemic and still going strong!

Please keep supporting Facebook Portal. Our family depends on this product daily and my mother enjoys seeing the photos rotate and refresh. When she struggles to use her phone, Facebook Portal is always there and even her staff love using it to call family members daily. The automatic camera tracking works great and the speaker/mic are always reliable. Make a new model and we will buy multiple. Thank you all for the great work with this product!!

Discontinued app? No! please donโ€™t do it!

Each of our family has the Facebook portal and we will have loads of photographs that we have loaded up using the Portal app.
What an earth will happen now as Iโ€™ve just received a message saying that the Portal app is being discontinued in January 2025, which is only a month away !
