Getting started
Use Slaide on your phone
In short
Open Slaide in your phone's browser and sign in with the same account. The mobile editor shows a small live preview of the document above the chat; tap it, or its full-screen button, to open the pages full screen. You can request changes and export files. For detailed positioning and layout work, use the desktop editor.
How do I start on a phone?
Step 1: Open Slaide in your browser
Open your library and sign in. Use the same sign-in method as on your computer so you reach the same account and documents.
Step 2: Choose or create a document
Open a library card to continue an existing document. To create one, describe the document in the start box and attach source files if needed.
Step 3: Send a clear request
Name the document type, audience and facts to use. On a phone, the build starts directly rather than using the desktop page-plan flow. See Your first document for the overall workflow.
Slaide chooses the mobile layout by window width: it applies on screens narrower than 768 px. A wider window, for example a tablet held sideways, shows the desktop editor. The mobile layout stacks a small live preview of the document above the chat. Your prompt and the current work appear in the chat, and a tap on the preview opens the pages full screen. This avoids trying to fit the full desktop canvas and side panels into a narrow screen.
How do I read pages and return to the chat?
Tap the document preview or its full-screen button to open the document. Browse the pages and check text, figures and images before sharing or exporting. Opening the preview does not start another AI request.
- Scroll through the pages and pinch to zoom. Pages that finish later in the build are added to the document as they arrive.
- Choose Chat in the full-screen header to return to the conversation.
- The browser's back action also closes the mobile document overlay before leaving the editor.
If the keyboard covers the conversation, close the keyboard before inspecting the result. Reading a long document is easier when you review one page at a time and send a correction with an explicit page number.
What editing works on a phone?
Use the chat for changes to wording, structure or design. Mobile direct editing uses a reduced set of actions for text, images and targeted AI changes; it does not expose the complete desktop inspector and drag workflow.
Page 3: shorten the paragraph to three sentences, keep the figures unchanged and make the main conclusion easier to read on a phone.
Move to a computer when you need precise alignment, repeated object positioning or a detailed inspection of a dense slide. You can reopen the same document there. See Edit text and design for the desktop workflow.
Can I export and continue on another device?
Use Export to download a supported document format. The format depends on the document, as described in Files and exports. Your browser and phone decide where downloads are stored and which app opens them.
To continue on a computer, open Slaide with the same account and select the document from the library. Check the current pages before sending another request. A lost browser connection does not by itself stop a server-side build; use the explicit Stop action when you mean to stop.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a separate mobile account?
No. Open Slaide in a browser and sign in with your existing account and sign-in method. Your documents are available from the same library.
Why is the mobile editor different?
It stacks a small document preview above the chat and opens the pages in a full-screen overlay. Direct editing is reduced for touch input. The complete inspector and detailed object positioning remain a desktop workflow.
Does closing the browser stop the build?
A lost browser connection alone does not stop a server-side build. Reopen the document to check its status. Use the explicit Stop button if you want to cancel the running request.
Does Slaide work on a tablet?
Yes, in the browser. Slaide chooses its layout by window width: below 768 px you get the mobile layout, and a wider window gets the desktop editor. Which of the two a tablet shows therefore depends on its screen and on how you hold it.
