Copresent - Turn your phone into a Google Slides remote

byβ€’
Copresent turns your phone into a Google Slides remote - swipe to advance, notes on screen. Need to co-present? Share one link and up to 10 people drive the same deck from any device. No app or account for guests.

Hey Product Hunt! πŸ‘‹ I'm the maker of Copresent. So Copresent does two things: πŸ“± Solo - your phone becomes the remote. Open a link, swipe to advance, notes right there on screen. No dongle. 🀝 Together - share one link and up to 10 people can control the same live deck from any device, with one-tap handoff mid-talk. No app, no account for anyone but the host. The reason it exists: Google locked native co-presenting behind paid Workspace plans. If you're on a free account, there's no built-in way to hand off slide control without the "ok, can you share your screen now?" fumble. Would genuinely love your feedback - especially what would make you actually use it in your next talk or class. I'm here all day to answer anything. πŸ™

Very Cool Idea. Just tried it and it's very easy present slides. I will use it for next inperson demo.
Feature Request - It may me a totally different thing, but this is needed for Figma slides as well. Kudos on the launch.

Β thanks for the feedback! Remote for Figma slides is actually a pretty cool ideaπŸ€”

this is one of those tools that solves a problem so small everyone just lives with it instead of fixing it, fumbling for the trackpad or asking someone to advance slides for you. the co-present with a shared link and no account for guests is the actually useful part for panel talks or interviews where two people are driving the same deck. does the notes view stay in sync if the presenter jumps around out of order, or does it assume a linear walkthrough?

Β thanks for support! As for the notes - yes, they stay in sync with all the cop-presenters. You can go back and forth and the notes will reflect whatever the current slide is. Even if the host updated notes after the presentation started (unlikely but can happen) - all the co-presenters get the updated notes right away.

Installed it and had my phone acting as a clicker in under a minute β€” really smooth. My favourite part is that co-presenters don’t need to install anything or sign up, they just open a link. Out of curiosity: does the phone remote also show a talk/slide timer while presenting?

Β thanks for the support! Timer has actually been requested a few times so it will be added pretty soon πŸ™‚

Β Awesome, looking forward to the timer β€” thanks!

I really like this idea! Would it be possible to integrate this with PPT as well? Other than that this seems super useful and I can definitely see myself using this.

Β thanks for your question! Quite a few people already asked about PPT, so I guess it becomes a priority now πŸ™‚
Do you normally use PowerPoint Online or the desktop version?

loving copresent, especially the no-account-for-guests part. noticed it's fully free right now β€” any plans to add a paid/pro tier down the line, or keeping it free forever? curious how you're thinking about sustaining this.

Β thanks for your question! The main functionality, which is remote clicker and co-presenting will remain free forever. At the same time I'm introducing a Pro plan with extra features and support.

Appreciate the clarity β€” good to know! Excited to see where Copresent goes from here.

love that guests don't need an account, way more people actually agree to co-present when you remove that friction. the swipe gesture feels just right too, kind of surprised more slide tools don't do this.

Β yeah the swipe feature is actually pretty cool - glad that you liked it!

honestly this looks super handy for quick team presentations. one thing that would really help is if the co-presenter link showed who is currently driving the deck, like a little indicator next to each person's name. right now if two people swipe at the same time it could get chaotic and people would not know whose turn it is

Β this is very valuable feedback. Thanks heapsπŸ™

The "no account needed for guests" part is genuinely thoughtful β€” anyone who's watched a co-presenter fumble with a download link knows that friction is real. Clean execution on something that sounds simple but rarely is.

Β thanks for your support!

Would love a timer view on the presenter screen with a subtle color shift when you're getting close to your time limit. Helps keep things tight without checking a clock on the wall.

Β I was thinking of adding the time but now will definitely do it sooner rather than laterπŸ˜€
