How it works, in three steps

No cables and no Bluetooth menus. If you can scan a QR code, you are ready to present.

  1. Install the Clikr extension

    Add Clikr to Chrome or Firefox on the computer where you present. That is the only install, and it takes a couple of clicks.

  2. Pair your phone

    Click the Clikr icon in your browser toolbar to show a QR code, then scan it with your phone. It pairs in seconds.

  3. Present and point

    Open your Google Slides deck and start Present mode, then hold the button to point and swipe to change slides.

Free and Pro

What you can do from your phone

The laser pointer and slide control are free. Pro adds the full presenter toolkit, a one-time payment with a 14-day free trial.

FreeNo account needed
  • Laser pointer. Hold the button and point your phone to move a laser dot on the slide.
  • Swipe to change slides. Flick left or right to move through your deck from anywhere in the room.
  • Scroll the page. Scroll a long slide or page from your phone, without walking back to the keyboard.
  • Reload the page. Refresh the deck with a tap if the browser tab needs a nudge.
ProOne-time payment, 14-day free trial
  • SpotlightPro. Dim everything but a bright circle to focus the room on one spot.
  • MagnifierPro. Zoom into a chart or detail without changing the slide.
  • Draw ModePro. Draw on the slide with a pen, then erase, all from your phone.
  • Presentation TimerPro. Keep a timer on your phone so you stay on schedule.
  • Page ClickPro. Tap the page to advance, for decks that expect a click.
  • Custom Pointer ColorsPro. Pick the laser dot color that reads best on your slides.
  • Pointer TrailPro. Leave a fading trail behind the dot so the back row can follow it.

Speaker Notes and Slide Preview are Pro features too. They read content from the deck, so they work with Google Slides, PowerPoint for the web, and Reveal.js-based decks like Slides.com.

One tool, many decks

Works with more than Google Slides

The same phone drives more than Google Slides: PowerPoint for the web, Keynote for the web, Reveal.js, Slides.com, and Mentimeter. Read the PowerPoint clicker guide or compare Clikr with other presentation clickers.

Why your phone

Why a phone beats a hardware clicker

  • Nothing extra to buy

    Your phone is already in your pocket and charged. There is no clicker to buy, pack, or keep spare batteries for.

  • Always within reach

    No hunting for the clicker before a meeting. If you brought your phone, you brought your remote.

  • Point, do not just click

    A basic clicker only moves slides. Clikr also gives you a laser dot, plus a spotlight, magnifier, and pen with Pro, so you can draw attention to exactly what matters.

Private by design

Nobody can read your slides but you

Clikr links your phone and computer over an encrypted peer-to-peer connection (WebRTC), direct between the two devices whenever your networks allow it. Where they do not, the connection is relayed, and the relay passes the encrypted traffic on without being able to read it. Slide content, speaker notes, and previews are never sent to or stored on our servers. A server only introduces the two devices once, during pairing, then steps out of the way.

Encrypted end to end

Direct between your two devices wherever your networks allow it, and encrypted the whole way, so nobody in the middle can read your talk.

Nothing stored

No slides, notes, or previews are saved on our servers, because they never reach them.

Your phone
Your computer

Server's only job: introduce the two devices during pairing. It never streams or stores your slides.
