Practice, Rehearse, and Present with the Desktop App and Online PowerPoint

The Desktop app version for Microsoft 365 PowerPoint generally has more features than the online version. The main advantage of using the online version is the ability to do real-time collaboration and provides additional accessibility. The desktop app has more advanced and complex editing and formatting features, plus some customization options with design elements, animation effects, and layouts not present in the online version.

In most cases you can export your presentation to your desktop to use with the desktop app.
