View Speaker Notes when presenting Google Slides in Google Meet

13/09/2023

Agenda

What’s changing

Earlier this year, Google added a new feature that allows multiple people present a Google Slides presentation together in Meet. Starting today, co-presenters are now also able to view speaker notes.

Who’s impacted

End users

Why it’s important

Primary and co-presenters can now read from the same speaker notes while engaging with their audience during a presentation. This allows everyone to present with greater confidence and reduces context switching between Meet and Slides.

Additional details

This feature requires a computer with a Google Chrome or Edge browser.

Getting started

Admins: There is no admin control for this feature.
End users:
- As the main presenter:
  - To start a presentation, select “present a tab” in Meet > “start slideshow”.
  - To add a co-presenter, select "Add co-presenter" in the people panel drop down menus.
  - To view speaker notes, click the speaker notes button in the controls at the bottom corner of the presentation.
- As a co-presenter:
  - You’ll be notified that the primary presenter assigned you as a co-presenter.
  - You’ll get control over the Slides presentation, allowing you to navigate the deck for everyone in the meeting.
  - To view speaker notes, click the speaker notes button in the controls at the bottom corner of the presentation.
    - Note: co-presenters must have edit access to the Slides presentation in order to view speaker notes.
