Use this interactive demo to learn how to embed voice recordings in your Google Slides presentation.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to add a voice recording to Google Slides by inserting an audio file from Google Drive and configuring playback settings. In just a few clicks, you can embed narration or commentary directly onto any slide for a more engaging presentation.


Steps

  1. Open your Google Slides presentation and select the slide where you want the voice recording to play.
  2. Click "Insert" in the top menu to access the audio options.
  3. Select "Audio" from the dropdown menu to pull recording files directly from your Google Drive.
  4. Browse your Drive, locate your voice recording, and click to select it.
  5. Click "Insert" to place the audio icon on your slide — drag it wherever you like.
  6. Click the audio icon and adjust playback settings, such as auto-play or looping, to fit your presentation flow.

📌 Why this matters

Adding voice recordings to Google Slides transforms static presentations into dynamic, narrated experiences — ideal for remote teams, educators, and async communicators. By embedding audio directly from Google Drive, presenters can deliver consistent messaging without requiring a live speaker. This feature supports self-paced learning, sales enablement, and stakeholder updates where timing and tone matter. Mastering audio in Google Slides helps you create more persuasive, accessible, and professional presentations.
