There are so many little “hidden” features in tools like Google Slides that even after more than a decade of using it I am still finding new things. One of those things that I stumbled upon earlier this week is an easy way to make videos play on a loop in a Google Slides presentation.

To make a video loop in Google Slides all you have to do is present your slides then right-click on the video. When you right-click on it you’ll be able to choose an option to loop the video. Watch my short video to see how it’s done.

Applications for Education

Playing a video on a loop in a slide could be useful when you want to play a video to use as a welcome announcement in a virtual meeting or in a physical meeting as students are slowly joining in.
