Office: Presentations Mobile for Android
I run training seminars in many different locations and have been looking for an app that will run PowerPoint presentations including their animations, so that I can make my Asus tf300 tablet a true laptop replacement machine when I am on the road. And now I have found it. This really works for me. I am not interested in producing or changing my presentations using my tablet, so I can't comment on that part of this app, but the showing of presentations is almost perfect. And there is no need to convert any files, because this can read ppt files with ease. I have given it 4 stars rather than 5, because it is almost perfect, but not quite. My only complaint is that the Android task bar still shows, taking up valuable screen space, and being visible to my delegates. If you can give me the option to get rid of that when in presentation mode in a future update it will be perfect and I will give you that last star. Please ........ An update on my previous review. Another problem I have found is that it appears unable to deal with text that is not horizontal. Even if the text is in a text box the text box stays at whatever angle you have set, but the text reverts to horizontal.
Has all the same features as PowerPoint, looks like it, feels like it - It is all you need to do a complete PowerPoint presentation on your tablet.
Doesnt show pictures and objects in the Microsoft Office files.
Bought Presentations because TextMaker support .odt. Please extend open formats to your other products.

Awesome product, but sometimes it crashes upon inserting images, my machine is Intel z2560 w/ 1gb ram on Kitkat.

Each of the Office 2012 apps by this developer, including Presentations are the first I've used that maintain all of my Windows and Macbook layouts from Microsoft Office. The apps are both beautiful visually and powerful. I've given this app 5 stars because it deserves it. But if the developer could add a feature I really like, it would be Tab support for multiple sheets like Excel uses. Great product!
The user interface displayed on nexus 10 has icons and tools so small (literally 4or5 millimeters) it is impossible to use this suite effectively. If this is fixed so menus and icons can be seen without a microscope, perhaps a more fair review can be posted. Seems useful to many on phone screens but does not at all redisplay for tablet effectively.
Embedded video is the most obvious missing feature, but other than that, this has the most functionality among PPT viewers and editors on Android.
It's slow and it's really hard to insert pictures. It is NOT a PowerPoint replacement.
It's OK if you want to work with text only, but if you try to insert video clips doesn't work.
Big issue is that excel embedded inside a presentation doesn't show up with this app. I Love the export to pdf function but embedded documents are key in any power point viewer
Bit disappointted that my presentations wouldnt play properly. When you pay for an app you expect it to be decent
How do you import images
Although the program works fine with simple presentations it won't tolerate more than one animation playing simultaneously and kind of 'glitches out' (set to play 'With Previous' in the full PC version of PowerPoint). It also wont play animated GIF files and gradients are also stepped as if the presentation is running in 256-Colour mode. As a professional powerpoint user, I find this app unsuitable and have therefore uninstalled it. If you want to use complex animations, I do not recommend this app.
Keeps shutting down everytime I try adding a photo to a page. I select a picture to be placed, it then the screen goes all weird then shuts down the app. Also quite slow to respond
Does a great job in preserving the formatting and transitions of the original PowerPoint. However unlike other apps it does not play emdedded videos. Including videos in presentations today is a must. Hopefully future updates will include a fix... I will then rate this 5 stars. Support should have better communication
Cannot add external pictures from personal gallery. Great app if this was a feature.
Great
Freezes my galaxy s3
Poor
Like the app so far, the one thing I don't like is the lag, it may be my complex slide show with a lot of graphics, but just wish there was a way to fix the lag. The pinch and zoom could also be a but smoother. I like the fact that it kept my formatting from the PC to the phone.
Great with power point presentations. I am very pleased. Great app well worth the purchase. I do however notice that it is missing pictures I use in my presentations. I will give 5 stars if this is corrected or if an explanation is given to what I may be doing wrong.
This product moves to SD, uses *.ttf and.. Swallows *ANY* regular MS-template I've thrown at it so far, so.. Bought all 3 of 'em, 3x *5 STAR*, so.. Thank you.. ^x^ ..!!!

All the other apps dumb down your presentation. This app keeps quality and animations.
I bought due to the hype being the best. Well, its just average in my view. It cannot display properly Greek letters and it messes up custom themes. But what really gets me is that I have tried to contact the developers twice, and they did not bother to reply.
It keep telling: unable to obtain license from google play. How to fix this? Help. Should've try first before buying : (
I purchased this product for the sole purpose of having a ppt editing app that would allow me to format the backgrounds of slides; however, this product does no more than enter and edit plain text.
Works no problems so far. Great products overall
Great to view presentations that you cant usually view, however cant view embedded video presentations. also very slow between slides. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Sucks
