Hi This is my minimal working environment:
\documentclass[compress]{beamer}
\usepackage[version=4]{mhchem}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\section{Introduction}
\subsection{Germanium Catenates}
\begin{frame}[t]{\ce{Ge-F} Containing Compounds} \vspace{20pt}
\begin{itemize}
\item There are 134 compounds in total that contain \ce{Ge-F} bond.
\begin{figure}[ht]
\includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{Figures/Images1.png}
\end{figure}
\end{itemize}
\footnotetext[1]{{\tiny A test footnote in the first column}}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
How can I remove that marker number?
It looks like this:
Also, when I used this solution it ended up like this:
Thanks in advance.

As an alternative to the great answer from @marmot, you could also use beamers own mechanism to change the appearance of the footnote.
To change the size of the text:
To get an unnumbered footnote:
Both of these settings can either be applied globally (like in the example below) or locally for only one footnote if used inside a group.
Please also note that you don't need any floating specifier for your
figure
environment in a class that does not have floats.
