WPS Office+PDF. I have been using WPS Office for as long as I have owned an Android device. This is one of the oldest Office Suites for Android and one of the best ones available for free. With WPS Office you can create, view and edit Office files, including presentations, with support for PowerPoint files. Craft an Effective Animated Presentation. Animation can really help draw audience attention to elements of your presentation. You don't even have to use separate applications to create these animation effects, either. For example, WPS PRESENTATION comes with hundreds of fonts, effects, built-in slide styles and ready-made templates.
The specialty of Presenter view in PowerPoint is that it lets you view your presentation with your speaker notes on one computer, while the audience views the notes-free presentation on a different monitor. In today’s post, we’ll show you the method of how to see your notes in Presenter view during a PowerPoint presentation. It is essential that you first enable Presenter view in PowerPoint. Enabling the Presenter view in PowerPoint is simple. All you need to do is just connect the monitors, and PowerPoint automatically sets up Presenter view for you.
View notes in Presenter view
Using Presenter View in PowerPoint lets you view presentations with speaker notes on one computer, while the audience views the notes on a second monitor!

If you are working with PowerPoint on a single monitor and still want to display Presenter view, go to Slide Show view, on the control bar at the bottom left, select 3 dots menu and choose ‘Show Presenter view’ option in PowerPoint.
When your computer is connected to a projector, and you start the slide show, this button starts a slide show, beginning from the first slide in the presentation.
Now, to move to the previous or next slide, select Previous or Next.
If you would like to view all the slides contained in your presentation, select See all slides.
When you select this option, you’ll view thumbnails of all the slides in your presentation. This makes it easier to switch to the desired slide in the show).
After that, you can view details of the slide, select Zoom into a slide, if necessary and focus on the part you want to see.
To hide or unhide the current slide in your presentation, select Black or unblack slide show as shown in the screenshot below.
That’s not all. PowerPoint allows you to use your Smartphone as a remote control to run your presentation and view your speaker notes. This is how your PowerPoint presentation appears in Presenter View.
If you would like to turn off the Presenter view while you are showing your presentation to others, navigate the mouse cursor to the Slide Show tab of the ribbon, clear the check box marked against ‘Use Presenter view‘.

We have a laptop that we only use to present an induction course which is just a powerpoint presentation.
We have a second screen hooked up and when the presentation opens up someone has to navigate to and hit the start presentation button, at that point and it opens in presenter view with the notes on the laptop and the presentation on the second screen.
What I'd like to be able to do is avoid that on element of interaction.
Is it possible to launch a power point directly into presentation mode with no additional user interaction?

Save the file in PowerPoint Show (*.ppsx) format. It will open automatically in presentation mode.
From Microsoft's site:
PowerPoint Show .ppsx
A presentation that always opens in Slide Show view rather than in Normal view.
Tip: To open this file format in Normal view so that you can edit the presentation, open PowerPoint. On the File menu, click Open, and then choose the file.
Note: If you need macros enabled save as a .ppsm. If you're in PowerPoint 2003 the older format you need is .pps.

I achieved this by the following
I Added a macro to the Powerpoint presentation
Then start the powerpoint presentation from the command line with
I used a 2003 presentation in 2016 - so the extension for presentations containing macros is ppt not pptm.
The remaining issue I have is that when I close the presentation it prompts to save - it does not do this if I load and run it using the GUI.
