Google Slides
Google Slides is Google's version of Microsoft PowerPoint. Google Slides can be copied, shared and published to the web. Google Slide Decks are automatically saved every time you make a change and update automatically when embedded into other sites. Google Slides is also available offline so you do not need an internet connection to use this app. Google Slides also has many add-ons, which are programs that supplement the functionality of Google Slides, increasing the possibilities of what you can do with Google Slides. By uploading your existing PowerPoint presentations to Google Drive, you can convert them to Google Slide Decks which can be fully edited, modified and shared.
