Sería genial que se pudieran ver los speaker notes de cada slide. ¡Agreguen esto pls!

Super práctico y fácil de usar. Eso sí, la conexión a wifi tiene que ser estable. En ambientes chicos se conectó bien pero en aulas muy grandes no lograba agarrar señal (aún estando conectados ambos dispositivos a la misma red).

I love how simple and smooth this is! No need to download any app! All you have to do is just download the extension on your browser, open your Google Slides file (maybe you have to refresh it if it's already open) scan the QR code and your good to go! And the spotlight feature is so cool! Very helpful!
