How it works

The format suits newsletters, reports, lesson summaries, and simple stories better than it suits formal business decks. Sharing is as simple as sending a link, and viewers can read the story on any device.

Sway is completely free with a Microsoft account, with no paid plans. It is a good choice for simple, visual stories, though it is not a slide tool, customisation is limited, and Microsoft has reduced its investment in the product.
