Sharing Powerpoints to hundreds of users with the fewest steps possible

Hello,

I have Powerpoint files that are grouped in folders. These files change quarterly. I need to share these Powerpoints with 400+ users who only have access via iPad. These users also have almost no technical experience. I have tried creating a Sharepoint site and giving the users access to this, but this Sharepoint will not show up in the Powerpoint app on iPad.

I have noticed the only Sharepoint section on the Powerpoint app is "Frequented" but this site will never have been visited by these users, they will just be members and have view access.

Is there any way to share a folder full of Powerpoint files with hundreds of users that doesn't require manual downloading? I would love it if I could set it up where I can share the folder and they are able to open the Powerpoint app on their iPad to view the folder full of Powerpoints.

Thank you

    Microsoft makes a SharePoint app for iOS. Have you tried it?

    Dear Kyle Kinzalow,

    Good day. Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community.

    As per your description, you want to share PowerPoint files with users who only have access to iPad.

    If I understand correctly, based on your description, using a SharePoint site is not for you, perhaps you could consider using OneDrive to share these files. Based on my testing, you could let users download the OneDrive client to their iPads, and then share the files with anyone via a link that generates the files from within OneDrive.

    If above can’t work for you or I misunderstand your needs, please let me know and I would like to assist you further.

    Thank you for your understanding and patience.

    Sincerely,
