ProductivityPlus is one of Templafy’s modules, ProductivityPlus provides the user with custom-designed features for PowerPoint to increase efficiency when creating large presentations.

These time-saving features offer possibilities such as Align and Stack, Swap Text and Super Size, Unify Shapes and more. As a result of our latest product update, all these features now have a smart keyboard shortcut, meaning that they can be implemented through a key code.

Why is it important?
