Why your Meta Portal display might be pixelated, blurry, or freezing during calls

1 Likes

If your display is pixelated, blurry or freezing during a call, you or the person you're calling may have a weak signal. Try the following:

Check your Wi-Fi signal. If your signal is weak, move your Meta Portal closer to your Wi-Fi router (internet connection device) or reset the device.
Make sure the person you're calling with has a strong signal on their Meta Portal or phone.

Other things can impact video quality, like a dirty or damaged lens, lighting, and settings on your device. You and the person you’re calling can try the following:

If a screen is blank, make sure the camera is turned on.
You are both on an up-to-date version of the calling app you are using (example: Messenger).
The camera isn’t obscured, dirty, or damaged. Try cleaning the lens with a soft cloth.
Make sure it's not too dark, bright, or backlit. Check for glare by hovering one hand over the camera to block the light and see if the image quality improves.
Unplug your device for 15 seconds, then plug it back in.
