Present view & live streaming

You can broadcast a presentation live to viewers on computers, phones, and tablets. Each viewer loads the presentation in their own browser and stays synchronized as you present, without the video compression associated with screen sharing.

To start, share the live URL from the controls in the present view. Viewers see the presentation in full screen with your profile picture, name, and presentation title.

Jumping to a slide

Sometimes it can be helpful to jump to a different slide without showing your live stream audience the slides in between. This can be done in two different ways:

  1. In the speaker view, select the Upcoming slide preview. Use the arrow keys to find the slide, then select Jump to slide.

  2. In the present view, press Esc or O to open overview mode. Navigation within the overview is not shown to viewers. Select a slide to move both you and the audience to it.

Live viewers

The speaker view shows how many people are currently watching the live presentation.
