How To Convert PPT To Google Slides?

Google Slides is a tool that allows you to create and share online presentations. You can construct a sequence of slides with audio, texts, photos, and videos. When creating a visual aid for presentations or lectures, professionals frequently turn to Google Slides and comparable apps. Besides, Google Drive automatically saves any changes you make to a Google Slides document. If your computer loses power or internet connectivity, you won’t lose any data.
