Add transitions between slides in Keynote on iPhone

Transitions are visual effects that play as you move from one slide to the next. For example, the Push transition makes a slide appear to push the previous slide off the screen. You can add a transition between any two slides in your presentation.

A Magic Move is a transition that creates the effect of objects moving from their positions on one slide to new positions on the next slide when you play your presentation.

Add a transition

In the slide navigator, tap to select the slide you want to add a transition to.
The transition plays after this slide as you move to the next one.
Tap the slide again, then tap Transition (you may need to tap first) to see more options.
Tap Add Transition at the bottom of the screen, then tap a transition (scroll to see them all).
To see a preview of the transition, tap Preview.
Tap Done.
To set the duration, direction and other settings, tap the transition at the bottom of the screen.
The options you see depend on the transition you added.
If you set a transition to start automatically, it begins playing immediately after you advance the previous slide.
Tap Done in the top-right corner of the screen.

Add a Magic Move transition

The easiest way to create a Magic Move transition is to create a slide and add objects to it, then duplicate the slide and rearrange, resize or reorient the objects on the duplicated slide. Any objects appearing on both slides become part of the transition. Any objects appearing on the first slide, but not the following slide, fade out. Any objects appearing on the following slide, but not the original slide, fade in.

In the slide navigator, tap to select the slide you want to add a Magic Move transition to, tap the slide again, then tap Transition.
If you can’t see Transition, tap to see more options.
Tap Add Transition, tap Magic Move, then tap Done.
Tap Duplicate to duplicate the slide, or tap Cancel if you already duplicated it.
Change the position or appearance of the objects on one or both slides; you can drag objects to new locations, rotate or resize objects, add or delete objects on either slide, and more.
The Magic Move transition is most effective when both slides include at least one common object whose position or appearance has been altered.
To preview the transition, tap the first of the two slides in the slide navigator, then tap .
To customise the transition duration and timing, tap the first of the two slides in the slide navigator, tap Magic Move at the bottom of the screen, then do any of the following:
- Change how long the transition lasts: Drag the Duration slider.
- Change when to start the transition: Tap Start, then tap Automatically or On Tap. When you choose Automatically, you can alter the delay between transitions by dragging the Delay slider.
To change how objects move between slides, tap Delivery and Acceleration, then do any of the following:
- Move text smoothly between slides: Tap a Match Text option:
  - By Object: Move one or more text boxes on the first slide to their positions on the second slide.
  - By Word: Move one or more words on the first slide to their positions on the second slide. You can use this animation to give the effect of words rearranging themselves to form a new sentence.
  - By Character: Move one or more characters on the first slide to their positions on the second slide. You can use this animation to give the effect of letters rearranging themselves to form a new word.
- Make objects that aren’t on both slides instantly appear or disappear during the transition: Turn off Fade Unmatched Objects.
- Change how quickly the objects move between locations:
  - None: Move objects at a constant speed.
  - Ease in: Slow objects when they approach their locations.
  - Ease Out: Accelerate objects after they leave their locations.
  - Ease In & Ease Out: Accelerate objects when they leave their locations and slow them when they approach their new locations.
Tap Done at the top of the screen.
