A Content slide lets you design custom, non-interactive slides — think of it as a PowerPoint-style canvas where you place and style blocks of text, images, and other elements exactly where you want them.

How It Works

The Content slide is non-interactive: participants see it on their phones but can’t respond to it, aside from sending reactions. It works in blocks, just like a normal PowerPoint slide — add content within blocks and move those blocks freely to lay out the slide however you like. Every Content slide starts with two blocks by default.
The Content slide only works on laptops and PCs with a minimum screen width of 1180px. If you’re on a laptop or PC but still see a width warning, zoom out in your browser to edit the slide.

Editing Blocks

1

Select a block

Click a block once to move or rotate it, and reveal options to duplicate or delete it.
2

Edit block content

Click the block again to edit its text, formatting, colour, alignment, images, and more.

Adding New Blocks

Use the 5 icons at the top of the slide to add new blocks:
You can also create a new block by duplicating an existing one and changing its content.

Positioning Blocks

Blocks have a layered structure — a block on top of another will obscure it. Bring a block forward or send it backward to change its layering. Use the alignment guides to centre blocks precisely: drag a block toward the middle of the canvas and it snaps into position along the vertical line, the horizontal line, or both.

Adding Animation

1

Select a block

Click the block you want to animate.
2

Open the Animation icon

Locate and click the Animation icon.
3

Choose an effect

Pick the animation effect you want applied to the block. Select No animation at any time to remove it.
Content slide animations are entrance effects that play when you reach the slide — every animated block plays its effect together at that point. Each block can hold one animation at a time. To reveal blocks one at a time on click (the PowerPoint-style sequence), use the Content v2 slide instead, which supports per-block On click step sequencing.

Slide Preview

The Content slide is the only slide type that shows a full preview of its content in the left-hand slide panel of the editor — useful for navigating presentations with multiple Content slides.
