Change a Keynote theme on iPad
You can change the theme of a presentation at any time. Your existing slides inherit the attributes of the new theme, including object styles, title styles and more. If you customised anything on your slides — for example, if you changed slide backgrounds or the colour of text — you retain those changes.
Note: You can’t change the theme of a presentation you’re sharing with others.
Change the presentation theme
Go to the Keynote app
on your iPad.Open a presentation.
Tap
in the toolbar, tap Presentation Options, then select Presentation Setup.Tap a theme or swipe left on the thumbnails to see more themes.
Tap
or 
to preview the presentation in the new theme.Tap Done.
Some themes aren’t downloaded to your device until you choose them or open a presentation that uses one. If your connection is slow or you’re offline when this happens, placeholder images and slide backgrounds in the presentation may appear at a lower resolution until you’re online again or the theme finishes downloading.
