Use this interactive demo to learn how to share a Google Slides presentation including speaker notes.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to share Google Slides with speaker notes so collaborators or viewers can access your presenter annotations directly from the presentation link. You can control access by setting permissions to Viewer, Commenter, or Editor before sharing the link.


Steps

  1. Open your presentation in Google Slides.
  2. Go to the slide that contains the speaker notes you want to share.
  3. Confirm that your notes are entered in the speaker notes area at the bottom of the slide.
  4. Click Share in the top-right corner of the screen.
  5. Add the recipient's email address or set General access to Anyone with the link, then assign their role as Viewer, Commenter, or Editor.
  6. Click Copy link to copy the shareable presentation link.
  7. Instruct the viewer to open the presentation link, click the three-dot menu in the lower-left corner, and select Open speaker notes.
  8. A pop-up window will appear displaying the speaker notes for the presentation.

📌 Why this matters

Sharing Google Slides with speaker notes gives collaborators and reviewers access to the presenter's talking points without requiring a live walkthrough. This is especially useful for remote teams, asynchronous feedback workflows, and training scenarios where context behind each slide matters. Google Slides' built-in sharing and permissions system lets you control exactly who can view, comment on, or edit the presentation, keeping sensitive notes secure. Understanding how to surface speaker notes via the three-dot menu ensures recipients know exactly where to find them after receiving the link.
