Frequently asked support questions for Plus AI

General issues

I upgraded but I'm still seeing limits in Plus AI

Reload the Plus extension.
- In Google Slides, reload your browser page and then relaunch Plus AI.
- In PowerPoint, close and relaunch the add-in.
If you're on the Basic plan, note that some of our paid features are limited to the higher Pro tier. Check our to make sure you are on the correct plan.
Make sure you are signed into the correct account. If you have multiple Google email addresses, make sure you signed into Plus with the correct one (the one with the upgraded plan.) Open the add-on in Google Slides, click the button next to the Plus logo to check which email you are using and/or to log out.

I'm signed into the wrong account

Many of you might have multiple Google email addresses. When you sign in with Google in Plus, each email address is a distinct account.

To switch accounts, open the add-on in Google Slides, click the button next to the Plus logo and click log out. When you log back in, make sure you select the correct email address.

Google Slides installation issues

Plus AI isn't loading in Google Slides

"I've installed the Plus AI add-on, but the only option I see in the Extensions menu under Plus AI is Help."

Disable active browser extensions.
Try reloading the page and relaunching the extensions menu.
Give it a minute to fully load.
If you don't see the Plus AI add-on at all under your Extensions menu, make sure it is .

Sometimes the extension can take a second or two to load properly, especially if you're on a slower connection. During this time, the only option in the extensions menu is "Help."

Plus AI is telling me I can't use multiple Google accounts

"When I launch the Plus AI extension, I see an error that I can't use multiple Google accounts."

You can use Plus AI with multiple Google accounts, you just can't be logged into both of them in the same browser.

The workaround is to set up multiple browser profiles:

Set up two (or more) (or ), e.g., one for work and one for your personal email.
Log into the respective Google account on each profile. When you want to switch between them, use the profile switcher in your browser.
In Google Slides, confirm you're only logged into the one email you want to use with Plus.

PowerPoint installation issues

I don't have permission to install add-ins on my work account

Alternatively, you can use the Plus add-in with a personal Microsoft account. (Unfortunately you will need a paid Microsoft Office subscription either way.)

You only support Google logins, but my Microsoft Office login is not a Google email

Your Plus account is separate from your Microsoft Office account, so as long as you have a Google login, you can sign up for and use Plus AI.

In your PowerPoint app (or Microsoft 365), log into your Microsoft account
In the Plus add-in extension, log into Plus with Google.

(Once you sign up for Plus AI, if you also want to use Google Slides, for example, you would login with the same account.)

The add-ins button is disabled in my PowerPoint app

Make sure you have at least 1 slide in your presentation.
Make sure you are not in "slide sorter" mode (where slides are displayed as a grid of thumbnails). Switch to "normal" mode.

Generating presentations

My prompts continuously fail when generating a presentation.

"I always get an error, no matter what prompt I try."

Launch the Plus AI extension (Google Slides > Extensions > Plus AI > New presentation) and click on the button next to the Plus logo to log out.
Reload the page.
Relaunch Plus AI and log into Plus.

The Plus AI-generated PowerPoint presentation doesn't look good.

Are you using the PowerPoint desktop app? Some limitations of PowerPoint in the browser mean that Plus AI generated content may not be formatted correctly.

It says I successfully generated a presentation, but I don't see it.

When you generate a new presentation, the slides get added to the end of your presentation. Some users don't notice the new slides if their presentation already had slides in it. Make sure you scroll down to the end of your presentation to see your new slides.

How do I generate more than 30 slides per presentation?

Plus AI has a limit of 30 slides per presentation generated.

To create a longer presentation, we recommend simply breaking up your prompt into multiple chapters and generating multiple presentations (each time you do it, the new slides just get added to the presentation you have open.) You'll then need to do a little bit of work to delete the extra title and agenda slides.

I can't find a presentation I generated previously.

"I generated a presentation with Plus AI but seem to have lost it."

⭐ Note that if you deleted slides (or the presentation) in Google Slides after generating them, we don't retain a copy of them.

Can I upload a custom font?

Unfortunately no. Because Plus AI works within Google Slides and Google Slides only supports Google Fonts, you cannot upload a custom font.

You can always use Plus AI in Google Slides to generate presentation content, download the presentation as a PowerPoint file and then change the font settings within PowerPoint.
