Google has launched the NotebookLM mobile app for Android and iOS, bringing its AI-powered research assistant to mobile devices. This release marks a significant step in expanding access to NotebookLM, which was initially launched as a web-based tool in 2023 under the codename "Project Tailwind." The mobile app aims to offer personalized learning and efficient content synthesis, allowing users to interact with and process information on the go. The app is officially available to everyone after months of waiting, offering the core features of NotebookLM, with the promise of continued functionality additions.

The NotebookLM mobile app focuses on audio-first experiences, with features like audio overviews that generate podcast-style summaries. These summaries can be played directly from the list view without opening a project, making it feel like a media player for casual content consumption. Users can also download audio overviews for offline playback and listen in the background, supporting learning during commutes or other activities. Moreover, the app supports interactive mode in audio sessions, where users can ask questions mid-playback, creating a live dialogue experience.

The mobile app retains the functionality of the web version, including the ability to create new notebooks and upload sources like PDFs, Google Docs, and YouTube videos. Users can add sources directly from their mobile devices by using the "Share" button in any app, making it easier to build and maintain research libraries. NotebookLM relies only on user-uploaded sources, ensuring reliable and verifiable information. The rollout underscores Google’s evolving strategy for NotebookLM, transitioning from a productivity assistant to a multimodal content platform, appealing to students, researchers, and content creators seeking flexible ways to absorb structured knowledge.
