## Description

**PPTControl: Slide Remote** turns your Android phone or tablet into a presentation controller for Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, and Google Slides on Windows or macOS. Change slides, start or end presentations, black or white out the screen, and move freely while presenting.

With Pro features, you can preview slides, jump directly to any slide, view speaker notes, control the cursor as a laser pointer, and change slides using your device’s volume buttons. No account is required, and PPTControl does not upload presentation files or include ads and tracking. Requires Android 7 or later and the PPTControl Desktop app.

## Review summary

PPTControl shows potential with a clean, easy UI and a promising concept for remote PPT control, but is hampered by frequent connectivity problems, unreliable Pro features and note handling, plus OS compatibility and GPS requirements. Free usage has some value, but reliability issues are the main pain points across many reviews.

### Pros

- Easy to use with a user-friendly design.
- Conceptually strong PPT control and presenting idea.
- Free version works reasonably well.
- No ads creating a cleaner user experience.

### Cons

- Unreliable device pairing between Android and PC/Mac; frequent connection errors and detection failures.
- Pro features and purchases are unreliable; some features don’t work and restore purchases disappear.
- Notes during presentations are inconsistent; sections may disappear, notes change with slide clicks, and the notes box isn’t resizable.
- Compatibility issues, including not working on Windows 11.
- GPS/internet dependency; app requires GPS and internet to function, limiting offline use.
