Readable PowerPoint speaker notes on one Mac screen.

Short answer
Can I use PowerPoint notes like a teleprompter on Mac?
Yes. NotesPresenter gives PowerPoint speaker notes a readable delivery view while keeping them tied to the current slide.
Why this helps
A focused notes view for presenters who cannot rely on PowerPoint Presenter View.
Notes follow your deck
Each note stays connected to its PowerPoint slide, so you are not reading from a separate script.
Larger text while presenting
Adjust the note view so your talking points are readable from your normal presentation distance.
Timing beside your notes
Keep pace and rehearsal timing visible without switching away from the notes you need.
Setup steps
Set up a clearer notes view in three steps.
1Open your PowerPoint file
Load the deck in NotesPresenter so each slide note appears in the delivery view.
2Adjust note readability
Choose the text size and appearance that make your notes comfortable to read.
3Present beside PowerPoint
Keep NotesPresenter beside PowerPoint for notes, slide context, and timing.
Presentation workflow
Share the deck. Keep the notes.
The safest one-screen setup is simple: prepare notes locally, share only PowerPoint, and keep NotesPresenter visible to you.
Default sharing rule
Choose the PowerPoint window in Zoom, Teams, or Meet. Do not share the full desktop.
Step 01

Yes. You can use a larger, cleaner notes view while PowerPoint stays open for the actual presentation.
Is NotesPresenter a scrolling teleprompter?
NotesPresenter is a PowerPoint speaker notes companion, not a generic scrolling script app. It is useful when you want teleprompter-style readability plus slide context and timing.

Yes. NotesPresenter is built around PowerPoint slide notes, current-slide context, thumbnails, and presentation timing.
