Listeners who are not in the room can see your slides in the captions, translated into their language. Song lyrics and scripture appear as easy-to-read cards.
Slides · DisponibleBefore you start

- STEP 2Turn on Translated slides
In the session's settings, open Slides & transcript and turn on Translated slides. The text of the slides shows in each viewer's language.
- STEP 3Choose the extras
Turn on Viewers can save and share slide images if listeners may keep them. Turn off Translate song lyrics to show only the original lyrics.
During the session, the session's Slides tab lists what was sent.
