How do I save photos taken from microsoft lens to powerpoint without it converting EACH photo in 3 copies but different versions (vector objects, image with background removed, and cleaned up image)

I plan to make a powerpoint presentation using photos in my gallery. However, when I try to create one, I noticed that the powerpoint file is taking SOOOO MUCH time to create it because EACH photo from the gallery is being converted to 3 versions of photo (equivalent to 3 slides).

Example:

photo 1 has 3 slides.
photo 2 has 3 slides

and so on

photo 2, first version (with caption: "Image converted by Office Lens to PowerPoint vector objects, so you can copy, paste, resize, or change colors in PowerPoint")

photo 2, second version (with caption: "Image with background removed")

photo 2, third version (with caption: "Cleaned-up image from Office Lens")

I just want to convert and save all the photos normally. Like 1 photo =1 slide. How do i do this? Microsoft lens is making it SOOO COMPLICATED

I'm using samsung galaxy tab s8 plus OS Android version 14
while for my microsoft 365personal is version 2412

microsoft lens app is version 16.0.17425.20158

powerpoint app is version 16.0.18324.20086

    You aren't likely to get a reply here because this Community deals with the desktop Mac Word software. You concern seems to be with PowerPoint & Lens is a mobile device app.

    You may receive useful responses in the Community which deals with PowerPoint for iPhone & iPad but if you need assistance with Microsoft Lens for iOS, the best bet is to send email to the product team at olenssup@microsoft.com.
