How to Create a Photo Slideshow in Google Slides
Walk through this interactive demo to learn how to create a photo slideshow in Google Slides.
📌 Why this matters
Creating photo slideshows lets you transform static images into dynamic presentations for family gatherings, client meetings, or social media. You can share memories more engagingly than scrolling through individual photos on your phone. The real advantage comes from the auto-advance and web publishing features, which turn your slideshow into a hands-free experience that runs continuously at events or on digital displays. This means you can set it up once and let it run in the background while you focus on hosting or presenting.
