Cloud Slides by MyCloudSuites

BetaFree

Cloud Slides is in beta: it works, it’s free, and it’s updated often while we finish it. Tell us what you find.

Presentations, ready to present

Open, edit and save .pptx decks with themes, transitions, animations, charts and tables, then present full screen with your notes beside you.

Cloud Slides is made for a computer. On a phone, send yourself the link and open it there.

In Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, or as a desktop app for Windows and Mac. Your presentations stay on your computer unless you save them to MyCloudSuites (MyCloudSuites Plus).

  • Widescreen, standard or a custom slide size

Animations

Bring a slide to life, one point at a time.

Animate a title or a list, then set when each one starts, its direction and how long it takes in the Animation Pane.

  • Entrance, emphasis and exit effects
  • The Animation Pane to reorder and time them
  • Triggers and the Animation Painter
  • 26 transitions between slides, with sounds

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes, Cloud Slides is free, in your browser and on your computer.

What does beta mean?

Cloud Slides works today, and we’re still adding to it and changing it often. It updates itself when there’s a new version. If something isn’t right, tell us and we’ll fix it.

Will PowerPoint open the presentations I save?

Yes. Cloud Slides saves standard .pptx files with their themes, layouts, transitions, animations, charts and notes.

Do my files get uploaded?

Not unless you choose to. Your presentations open and save where they are. A file is stored with MyCloudSuites only if you save it there with MyCloudSuites Plus, or send it to the AI assistant.

Which computers does it run on?

Windows and Mac, and any computer with current Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari at mycloudsuites.com/apps/slides once you sign in.

Is anything missing?

Some things PowerPoint has aren’t in Cloud Slides yet, such as editing with others at the same time, opening older .ppt files, 3D models, Morph and Zoom, add-ins and macros, and presenting online with live subtitles.

Make your next presentation in Cloud Slides.

Free in your browser, or as a desktop app for Windows and Mac that keeps itself up to date.
