Google Slides by Kyle U.

Google Slides is a program that allows you to create presentations from a school project to a
professional conference. You can access it from any device like a computer, laptop, iPad, or even a
phone. It has a lot of cool features and some bad too.

In Google Slides you can make numerous slides by clicking the add button in the bottom left
corner then select the template that fits your slide. If you want to delete your slide then you hold
down on that slide then when the edges of your screen turn orange you click the trash can up in the
top right corner. If you want a picture you click on the + at the top right and click the picture icon.
If you want to take a picture then press from camera and if you have taken the picture then press
from photos.

The first feature is a really helpful and one that a lot of people don’t know about. This feature is
called speaker notes. This feature is where you can type your speech in the speaker note section
and when you airplay they can’t see your speech but you can off of your mobile device. This is
helpful because you can use it as cues. All you have to do is glance down every once and awhile
then you wouldn't forget as easily.

One of the down side of this program is that when your working on an iPad you can only insert
pictures and not videos unless you go in on a computer. This is bad because if your putting
together a slide that needs a video and you only have an IPad then you can’t add a video. This also
isn’t helpful because if you have your video on your iPad then you have to send it to your computer
then get onto the computer which also takes a long time. If you have a long video gmail can’t send
it all together you have to break it up in to pieces.

In my opinion the best feature of google slides is being able to share it with people so that
multiple people can work on the slide. You just press the icon that has the person with a plus sign
and enter the person's email in to the box then press the send button. This is helpful if you are
working in a team and you want everyone to be able to work on it at the same time. This also helps
because if one person is gone the other people still have it. This feature is one of my overall favorite
feature of Google Slide.

I like Google Slides a lot because of all the good features that are in this program. Though it has
one bad feature it is not very important. This is my favorite slideshow app.
