How to play a presentation without PowerPoint
Drop a PPTX file onto the area above. The presentation opens immediately, nothing is uploaded and nothing is installed. Move between slides with the arrow keys, the space bar or a click on the slide.
- Full screen: the F key or the button on the right. Projecting then looks exactly like it does from a speaker's laptop.
- Speaker notes: the N key. The text the author wrote under the slide is visible only to you.
- Autoplay: the P key or the Play button. Slides advance on their own, optionally looping. Useful for a deck running on a stand or at a reception desk.
Rendering happens in your browser from the unpacked PPTX, which is a ZIP with the slides described in XML. We read the text, images, tables, theme colours and layouts out of it and put them back together on the slide.
Frequently asked questions
Is the presentation sent to your server?
No. The file is unpacked and rendered right in the browser, the network never touches it. So you can open material that is not allowed to leave the company.
Does it look exactly like PowerPoint?
Close, but not pixel for pixel. Text, images, tables, shapes and colours line up. Charts and SmartArt diagrams are drawn only as a frame with a label for now, and animations and slide transitions are not played. When you need an exact picture, open the file in PowerPoint.
Does it handle the older PPT format?
No. PPT is the binary format from before 2007. Open it in PowerPoint or LibreOffice Impress and save as PPTX, then we will play it.
Can I play a deck from Google Slides?
Yes, via File → Download → Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx). Drop the downloaded file straight in here.
Will the audience see the notes?
Not unless you open the notes panel yourself. In full screen the notes are hidden and the N key brings them up.
How large a presentation goes through?
Up to 60 MB. With photo-heavy decks expect a few seconds for unpacking, after that moving between slides is instant.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. The slide scales to the width of the screen and you move on by tapping or with the buttons underneath.
