How to change the duration of a slide

By default, each slide in your Powtoon is 10 seconds long. You can increase or decrease that duration at any time using the timeline controls in Powtoon Studio.

Note: The maximum slide duration allowed is determined by your subscription plan. If you reach your plan's limit, Powtoon Studio will prompt you to upgrade.
