So, you've got a killer Google Slides presentation brewing, but it's feeling a little... silent? Don't worry, adding audio is way easier than memorizing your boss's coffee order. Let's dive in!
First, open your Google Slides and click on the slide where you want your sound to live. Think of it like choosing the perfect spot for a jukebox at a party — timing is everything, folks.
Now, head up to the top menu and click Insert, then select Audio. A little window will pop up showing the audio files stored in your Google Drive. You can pick a file you've already uploaded or drag a brand-new one right into Drive beforehand. Either way, your Google Drive is basically your personal sound vault. Pretty neat, right?

Once you select your audio file, click Select, and boom — a speaker icon appears on your slide like magic. But wait, we're not done yet! Click on that speaker icon and head over to the toolbar at the top. Here, you'll find options to set the audio to play across slides or stop when the slide changes. It's like being the DJ of your own presentation — no pressure though.
Pro tip: you can also adjust the volume under Playback options if your soundtrack is a bit too "bass in your face." Nobody's got time for an eardrum workout during a product launch.
How to Add Audio to Google Slides
