Intro to Keynote on iPhone
You can use Keynote to create beautiful and engaging presentations with fun animations, interesting transitions and professional polish.
To create a Keynote presentation, you always start with a theme, then modify it however you want. Slides in a theme include place holder images, text styled as headlines and body content.

Below are thumbnails of pre-designed themes arranged in rows by category.](https://help.apple.com/assets/6386526B0659CD6C84350728/6386526E0659CD6C84350737/en_AU/08156c05ed384d516f03f40a73b37c3c.png)
To build your presentation, you replace place holder content with your own content or delete place holders you don’t need. You can also add other objects — like shapes, photos and graphs — to any slide.
When you select an object (an image, shape, graph, table or cell), then tap , you see formatting controls for the type of object you selected.
You can quickly change the look of the selected text or object by applying a new style to it. Tap one of the alternative styles to change the object’s look, or use the style options to customise the object’s appearance however you like.
