Photo slide show

How can I change the speed when showing a slide show on my Mac in running Monterey so the photo stays on longer. I don’t see any setting for it. Thank you

iMac, macOS 10.13

It will depend on how you start the slideshow. There are two kinds of slideshows in Photos.

  • You can show the photos from any album as an instant slideshow, when you open the album by clicking the blue text "slideshow" at the top of the album. But then there are no controls for the speed of the presentation.
  • You can create a slideshow project with "File > Create > Slideshow > Apple". Then you can adjust the timing by clicking the pocket watch icon to the right of the slideshow window. It will depend on the slideshow theme, how much control you will have over the timing. Try the Classic theme for the most flexibility.


My screenshot is in German, but I hope you can identify the buttons.
