Making Games
So I LOVE Google Slides, but I have some ideas. I use it on iPad and laptop. I have made a video game on the laptop but, it’s not compatible with iPad. It’s not complicated but I use links on shapes. On laptop in slideshow mode I can click on them and they’ll go to the slide that’s listed on the link. But on iPad, one the if I click it on slideshow it does nothing, so I have to do it on regular editing mode. Two even if I’m on editing mode I have to select it and a button will pop up for going to that slide, which is really annoying for long cutscenes. Another complaint I have is in slide show you SCROLL through slides. I mean COME ON man. I can focus on one slide when I can see the ones before and after.
Here’s a suggestion an AI generated function fore removing backgrounds.

Barely functional: edit functions freeze, autoformat problems
I’m using a 2024 iPad Pro 13” 1TB. Google Slides for iPad OS is barely functional. I spend more time trying to disperse my frustrations with this garbage app than actually using it. Editing functions freeze and lock out regularly, and the only way to fix it is by closing and re-opening the app. Line spacing seems to be arbitrarily determined, and this issue leads to overlaps in lines of entered text. Don’t even bother to try creating bulleted lists-it’ll screw up the entire slide’s spacing & formatting. Randomly decides not to recognize Apple’s Magic Keyboard or trackpad click inputs while still recognizing the trackpad cursor. When this occurs, any editing functions are locked out simultaneously. The only way to fix this is to close and reopen the app, but the issue ALWAYS recurs. GOOGLE: This app is an embarrassment!
UPDATE: In the few minutes since I posted this review, Slides has locked me out of all editing functions TWICE.Show lesstommyjness
Mobile Usage Needs Improvement
It is extremely difficult to complete substantial amounts of progress on large projects on mobile when half the time that I try to move the object I just selected, the whole screen moves instead. Like come on, I selected that object for a reason and I am dragging my finger ON it for a reason, and perhaps that reason is not to move the whole screen but the object itself. If that was the case, I likely would have no objects selected and I likely would be dragging empty space, don't you think? The screen should move if no object is selected or if a finger is being dragged on empty space, or both. Otherwise, when both an object is selected and the finger is dragging on the object, the object needs to be the one moving every time, not the screen, without forcing the user to deselect and select again hoping that this time the app will recognize that ah yes, the user is in fact trying to move the object.Show lesskdlsmskeow,d,
