Microsoft PowerPoint
Microsoft PowerPoint helps users create, design and share presentations across web, desktop and mobile versions for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. It offers thousands of customizable templates, and users can write or draw on slides and convert input into text or shapes. Presentations can be shared for real-time collaboration with comments and @mentions. Copilot can rewrite, reorganize or add slides, while Speaker Coach provides feedback on pace and vocabulary. Accessibility Assistant suggests adjustments to format, color and word choice; Cameo supports prerecorded video alongside slides. The free web tier includes basic tools, sharing, collaboration, dictation and 5 GB of storage. Microsoft 365 subscriptions bundle PowerPoint with apps including Word, Excel, Outlook, OneNote, OneDrive and Teams. Personal costs $9.99 a month with 1 TB storage; Family costs $12.99 a month with up to 6 TB. Fully installed Office apps can work offline, but after at least 31 days without internet they cannot edit or create documents. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled.
