Keynote for iOS (iPad): Share and edit a presentation with others
Share a presentation with collaborators
If a presentation is saved to iCloud, you can share a link to it using Mail, Messages, Twitter, and Facebook. (To share using one of these services, you must first set up that account in Settings on your device.)
-
Do one of the following:
-
If the presentation is open: Tap
, then tap Share Link via iCloud. -
If the presentation is closed: Tap
in the presentation manager, tap Share Link via iCloud, then tap the presentation you want to share.
-
-
Tap the method you want to use to send the link.
The full link appears in the body of the email, tweet, or post—be sure not to delete or modify the link.
-
Enter the requested information.
Any further edits you make to the presentation after you share it are visible to the recipients of the link.
You can also copy the link to your presentation and share it with other apps.
Add or change a password for a shared presentation
A presentation has only one password. If you already added a password to your presentation, that password applies when you share a link to the presentation.
If the presentation is already shared, you can still add a password. Collaborators lose access to the presentation until you notify them of the new password.
-
Do one of the following:
-
If the presentation is open: Tap
(on iPad, tap 
), then tap View Share Settings. -
If the presentation is closed: Tap
, tap Share Link via iCloud, then tap the presentation.
-
-
In Share Settings, tap Add Password, then enter a password in the Password field.
If your presentation already has a password, you can keep the password, or tap Change Password to change it. Enter the original password in the Old Password field, then enter the new password. The old password is replaced by the new one.
-
Enter the password again in the Verify field.
-
Enter a hint to remind you of the password if you forget it.
-
Tap Done.
You can send the link again if you wish, but it’s more secure to send the new password to collaborators in a separate communication.
-
Tap Done to close Share Settings.
Any further edits you make to the presentation after you share it are visible to the recipients of the link when they enter the new password.
Change permissions for a shared presentation
You can change whether a presentation can be edited or only viewed by others you share it with.

The new setting takes effect right away.
