Adding Themes in Google Slides

Google Slides makes it easy to apply themes to your deck. Whether you’re creating a webinar, internal pitch, or client-facing presentation, adding a theme helps keep your slides visually cohesive. This tutorial walks you through how to access the theme menu, choose or import a theme, like your company’s slide template, and apply it across your presentation.

• Go to the top menu and click on “Slide.” Then, select “Change theme” from the dropdown.

2

Select or Import a Theme
