# Adding notes to your presentation

> How to add private speaker notes to each slide on AhaSlides and view them while presenting through Remote control, never visible to your audience.

You can write private notes for each slide. During your presentation, these notes appear on your own screen through Remote control, and your audience cannot see them.

## Adding notes to a slide

In the AhaSlides editor, you will find a notes box below each slide preview. Type as much as you want into this box. Your notes save automatically and stay attached to that slide.

## Presenting with your notes

To see your notes while you present, you must present with Remote control. Remote control opens a separate screen that you use to control your presentation, so you can project the presentation window to your audience while you read your notes on the control window.

After you click **Start**, the Remote control window opens and displays the notes you wrote for each slide as you present it.

<Note>
  Your notes are visible only on the Remote control window. They never appear on the audience screen or on the projected presentation.
