Google Slides saved my life!
(Slight exaggeration, but it really did save me a ton of work!)
I am a DIE HARD Power Point user. Ive used Power Point for forever. I know it like the back of my hand. However when my computer died and I was reduced to making slides on my iPhone, Power Point was not there to help me! I tried several different slide apps before landing on Google Slides and I have to say this is by far the BEST app for making Slides from your phone!! By. Far. Its so simple and straightforward! Sharing slides with colleagues is super easy! So when my computer was back up and running I ended up getting the Google Slides app for my Mac as well!! I havent been back to Power Point since!!
So now let me explain why I only gave 4 stars. When you insert an image to a slide (from the iPhone app) it gives the option of photos from your library or to take a picture (standard options). When you select that you want to insert an image from your library it automatically takes you to the "Memories" album on your iPhone (which is every photo in date order) and it starts with the very last photo taken. So if you want to select one that was taken a few weeks ago you have to scroll back through weeks of photos. The photos I use for my slides are all in a folder, but I cant access them here as it will only take me to the Memories album. Also, as you scroll back through your photos you have to be careful not to do this too fast as it will take you to the very FIRST photo and for me that was over five years ago!! So if the makers of the app would PLEASE fix it so that I can select the album I would like to retrieve my image from I would GREATLY appreciate it and will gladly change my rating from a 4 to a 5!
