Video and 3D elements would be a massive win as well for presenting architecture presentations!

All these time creating slides on figma did not go in vain, thank you figma!!

We gave Google slides enough time to rethink things and make life easier. Instant Switch

This is super exciting!!! Well done, Figma team ✨

I highly support this! Hope Figma introduces more manual animating tools(not slide transitions) and does not turn out to be like another money-grabbing design platform.

I always use Figma for slides, hope to see Figma for print soon

Interactive prototypes embedded into the deck is a game changer. I've been trying to hack this into my presentations for a while now.

Extremely easy to move existing slides over. Just copy paste the Frames and done! So awesome!

best text rewriter I've ever seen. congrats, Figma team!

I'm very fascinated, this will make life easier. Thank you Figma!!!!

This is quite exciting. Can't wait to use it

Love this. So grateful for Figma.

Nice move, used figma for presentation even before this

If we are able to export this out in pptx format then we golden!

This is amzing. I was already using figma for making slides and pitch deck for exporting. There are some feature still missing, hope they will be integrated soon too

Man this is amazing. Can't wait to try this out. Well done!

ace, i just made 2 large presentations in figma so will be keen to give this a go next time!

Lovely, looking forward to using this. Great job!

move aside, Google Slides and Microsoft PPT!

Now this is what i am hyped about !

An absolute dream come true!!!

It's just missing charts and graphs. If I have to do them with shapes by hand, my team won't be able use or edit them. I'd love to move away from powerpoint, but without graphs We can't incorporate it.

Can’t you design the graphs in Figma and then move them over to Slides? I’m not really a Figma user so I’m kind of asking for myself 😊.

So exciting!

Wow. This is laudable!!!!

This is super cool !

Love me some Flides!

Will you be able to create your own custom templates? And, will there ever be an export to .ppt option? We love working within Figma, but sadly larger clients always need a ppt version of their decks.

Sounds AMAZING. Can I see the history of the people who saw my deck?

Stoked!

Excited to try this out!

useful video 👍🏻

I like that you seem to have a magic-move equivalent, we frequently need to animate items between slides. Is there a 'outline view' like Powerpoint, e.g. some way to quickly get a lot of text content into Figma?

Nice!

Nice update. It would be nice to export in pptx format.

How to create your own theme/template that match your company's brand? Is it tool just for design team or it can be shared to marketing and sales with branded template?

Exciting

If you could export these to PPT it would be a game changer

A dream come true 😢❤

Yes, you can export the slide desk as PDF. Click on the Figma icon on the top-left corner --> File --> Export all slides to PDF.

this is amazing, I only hope the cursor for voting doesnt show up in the meeting.. I have when whatsapp shows everyone what you are voting.

All I ever wanted

how I can add more template style to my deck?

Does sharing provide a link to a webpage so that clients who just need to view can go through it at their own pace?

Does anyone know how to add a link to an image ? (without putting a text box over it)

Does anyone know how to add page numbering?

Hopefully this is free like Google slides. So that any members from the team can also create or edit contents easily.

Maybe is just me, but I didnt see the animacion tool for single objetcs on the slide...

Can I import a ppt and turn it into figma slides?

wellllll adding animation without the option to customise them as we canin figma is a bit weird and disappointing. Hope this will be updated soon, since then I will keep using figma for prototyped presentations

Time to switch!

Would we be able to create our own brand deck templates ?

I am a film maker who pitches all the time. I’d love the idea of a Figma Slides style approach that is focussed not just on words or products, but also rich imagery, gifs, video embeds, galleries, etc. And that can be scaled for tablet and cell phone… (hello Readymag). Any chance..?

Wow, :D

Should figma, figjam, figdes be split into separate apps?

Please, fix the PDF export bug. When exporting a presentation as a PDF the round corners are exported too, leaving terrible white corners.

why can't we embed video urls? e.g. youtube

Hope this finally kills PPT... im so done working on presentations in that app

This is the big question. Clients may not want to bother with it and old habits of just having everything as a PPT hasn’t changed in decades. It could be better than everything out there but it’s now another tool and there are info security concerns too. And if you work with a lot of non-designers who all are more in tune with PPT, what are you gonna do? As much as I wish there was something do dethrone the pain that PPT is, it’s part of MS ecosystem and people just know and accept it. Seeing the this is a new mode entirely, it’s gonna be behind a paywall just like FigJam was. They need to make this worth the cost vs just having prototypes built in Figma standard as a presentation and/or slide software already paid for.

Figma's updates and video tutorials are great, but the audio can be quite distracting. It might be easier for viewers to concentrate if the narration is done naturally, rather than reading from a script. If the audio is AI-generated, having a human speaker could improve the experience. Thank you. 🤓💯🙏

All we wanted was speaker notes in Figma. Now they bring out a separate feature that you'll have to pay for in the future. Can't see it catching on

Google slides is awful but when somethings free, what do you expect. Figma Slides will be $10/month in no time

We don’t need slides, we all have PowerPoint for this stuff. I, and my team, would rather see a little effort in making less choppy prototypes. It’s getting worse by the day, it’s extremely unreliable and embarrassing.

Just another feature that's gonna be priced separately by some greedy seat concept, the evil is already revealed in the Beta description. Greed is going to be Figma's downfall. Mark my words. Figjam is a terrible "thing" that acts and looks like software for toddlers, at least Slides doesn't feel like it's made from the same immature mold, although it's awfully flimsy. Brownie points for the component integration with variant controls retained in Slides, but there's no way to add local DS components like in Figma. All I get is styles.
