How Do I Add Notes in Google Slides?

Published in Google Slides 2 mins read

You can add notes to your Google Slides presentations to help you remember important points, provide speaker notes, or keep track of additional information. Here's how to do it:

Adding Notes to a Slide

  1. Click on the slide where you want to add notes.
  2. Look for the "Notes" pane at the bottom of the screen. It may be hidden by default. If you can't see it, click on the "View" menu and then select "Notes".
  3. Type your notes into the "Notes" pane. You can use any format you like, including bullet points, numbered lists, and bold text.

Accessing Notes During a Presentation

  1. Start your presentation.
  2. Click the "Presenter View" button at the bottom of the screen. This will open a new window showing your notes and the current slide.
  3. Use the notes to guide your presentation and ensure you don't miss any important points.

Example:

Let's say you're giving a presentation about the history of computers. You could add notes to your slide about the ENIAC, the first electronic general-purpose computer, to help you remember key information.

Practical Insights:

  • Use notes to jot down key points, reminders, or additional information that you might not want to include on the slide itself.
  • You can also use notes to keep track of your presentation flow and ensure a smooth transition between slides.
  • Notes are only visible to you, so you can use them to help guide your presentation without distracting your audience.
