How to Set Slide Duration in Google Slides

Walk through this interactive demo to learn how to set slide duration in Google Slides.
  1. Open your presentation and hit the "Slideshow" button to enter presentation mode.
  2. Hover your mouse to reveal the controls, then click the three-dot menu icon.
  3. Select "Auto-play" from the dropdown menu to access timing settings.
  4. Choose "Every 10 seconds" and you're done—your slides will now advance automatically at that interval.

📌 Why this matters

Setting automatic slide timing transforms your presentation from a manual click-through into a self-running display perfect for trade shows, lobbies, or unattended kiosks. Beyond convenience, this feature lets you rehearse your verbal delivery with consistent pacing, ensuring your speaking rhythm matches the visual flow. You can also create polished video recordings of your presentations without awkward pauses between slides, making your content ready for online courses, social media, or client proposals where smooth transitions matter more than manual control.
