Presenter comes with some keyboard shortcuts—learning just a few of them can help you put together presentations even faster.
iPadOS 26 and later: find shortcuts in the menu bar. This requires Windowed Apps or Stage Manager. See Apple’s keyboard shortcut guide for how to open it on each version.
iPadOS 18 and earlier: press and hold ⌘ to see shortcuts for the current screen.
