How to use Google Slides New
1. Open it
Click the icon in your toolbar, or press ⌘ Shift K (Mac) or Ctrl Shift K (Windows, Linux, ChromeOS).
2. Create something
Click an app icon for a blank file, or type what you want — “doc”, “sheet”, “slides”, “form”, “meet”, “event” — and press Enter.
3. Search inside an app
Start with the app name, then your query: “drive invoice”, “gmail from:alex”, “maps coffee”, “yt lofi”. Press Tab on a highlighted search action to fill in its name.
4. Anything else is a Google search
If nothing matches, Enter searches Google for what you typed.
