Keyboard works too: ← → to change slides, B to blank. The timer runs 20× faster than real life; watch for the wrist taps.

Features

Everything you need at the front of the room.

Slides Remote presses the same keys you would, so it works with the presentation apps you already use.

Works with your app

Keynote, PowerPoint, Google Slides in a browser, Preview and most other presentation apps.

Wi-Fi or Bluetooth

Switches between them by itself. No internet, router or account needed, so it works on any venue's network.

Notes for every slide

Write them on your computer or phone. They follow along as you present, on your phone and your wrist.

A timer that keeps you on track

Set the talk's length, warnings and a budget per section. See at a glance whether you're ahead or behind.

Private by design

Pair once with a six-digit code shown on both screens. Everything is encrypted, and nothing leaves your devices.

Accessible

VoiceOver, Voice Control, Dynamic Type at the largest sizes, Reduce Motion and Differentiate Without Colour.

On your phone

Your notes. Your time. One glance.

The slide number, the current section's time left, and what you meant to say, right above big Next and Previous buttons.

  • Start and End Show, Blank Screen and Go to Slide, alongside Next and Previous.
  • Edit notes on the go. If the same notes changed on the computer, it asks which to keep.
  • Several presentations, each with its own notes and timer plan.
  • Reconnects by itself if the computer sleeps or you walk out of range. Your screen stays on while you present.

On your wrist

Present with nothing in your hands.

  • Keep in Front keeps the remote on screen with your wrist down for the whole talk.
  • Connects directly over Bluetooth, or through your phone when it needs to.
  • Wear OS too, with the crown or rotating bezel.
