Deckset was the OG in this space, which I used a decade (!) ago in college. Looks like they moved off the Mac App Store, and are bringing out an iOS app now: https://www.deckset.com

Now I much prefer something like https://quarto.org with dataviz.

Notepad.exe wasn’t even the OG, but it definitely predates the App Store. I worked with an old greybeard who used Notepad for presentations, with text spaced perfectly to switch “slides” by hitting the PgDn key.

There's an xkcd comic for that: https://xkcd.com/378/
