“With high-fidelity sound and an AI-powered Smart Camera for hands-free video calling, Zoom on Portal is also a great way to stay close with friends and family,” said Facebook.

Facebook also expanded the ‘Story Time’ library with a collection of stories that reflect and celebrate the diverse families that use Portal.
