In this article, you can learn about the limitations of our Google Slides integration which can be removed by installing our free extension for Google Chrome. 

 

The extension provides a seamless integration, without the need to switch between Google Slides and Slido. It also ensuring that videos, animated transitions, and GIFs work as they should when you present.

 

If you’re having any issues with the Google Slides integration, please check out the Troubleshooting section of our Use Slido with Google Slides article.

 

 

Limitations

 

These Google Slides features will only work if you have our Chrome extension installed:

  • Animations on slides
  • Transitions between slides
  • GIFs
  • Hyperlinks
     

The following limitations apply to our Google Slides integration in general:

  • It's not possible to unlink a slido from the Google Slides presentation, but you can reuse the slido or add a new one to your presentation
  • You can use your PowerPoint presentation (.pptx) in Google Slides, however you have to relink your slido and add your polls and Q&A again.

Can you have BOTH Google Slides integration and the Chrome integration installed? I need to clarify which one to use as training for a bunch of people who will be presenting a deck with polls in different cities.

Hey @Back_that_SaaS_Up ,

Google Slides Add-on must be downloaded on any computer being used to create or present the slido.

For seamless presenting, install our extension for Google Chrome along with the add-on.

It is not required but it ensures that your animations, transitions, videos and GIFs all work well when presenting with our Slido for Google Slides add-on.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Best,

- Carly
