Feature Requests for Gamma: Offline Mode and Persistent Embedded Prototypes for Smoother Presentations
Hi everyone, I'm Hemali Tanna, a product designer based in India. I use Gamma mainly to present UX and product design case studies, especially during interviews and stakeholder walkthroughs.

My top feature request is an offline mode that still preserves interactivity—like expandable diagrams, working accordions, and responsive layouts. Gamma decks can get heavy with GIFs, embeds, and other media. When you're also on a Zoom or Meet call, the browser can lag quite a bit. An offline version that preloads everything would really help ensure smooth presentations, especially on lower-spec machines.

Another issue I’ve run into is with embedded prototypes, like Figma. While it's extremely useful to include everything in one Gamma, every time I revisit a slide with an embed, the prototype reloads from scratch. Even navigating away and coming back causes it to refresh. This interrupts the flow of a presentation, particularly in interviews where timing and transitions matter. It would be great if Gamma could cache or hold the loaded state during a session.
Looking forward to contributing and sharing more feedback.
