Google’s recent release of the NotebookLM app for Android came as a surprise. Previously accessible only through a browser, this app was developed by Google in 2023 to assist users in comprehending intricate documents using artificial intelligence. The introduction of the app has transformed it into a convenient and practical smart pocket assistant.
What is the function of NotebookLM?

Google’s NotebookLM service on Android can analyze documents, condense them into summaries, generate intelligent questions, and create AI podcasts.
- Create and retrieve note sections.
- Send documents and resources directly from your mobile device.
- Create “broad audio evaluations” using the provided material.
- Activate the new interactive mode to engage in conversations with AI-generated hosts.
AI engaging in conversations with you on podcasts

Interacting with AI-generated podcasters is a new exciting feature that involves engaging in real-time conversation simulations. You can ask a question, and the AI responds based on your notebook’s content, continuing the chat seamlessly.
This feature is currently in the beta stage, restricted to English, and functional only in new notebooks. However, the aim is ambitious: transforming NotebookLM into a tailored tutor that can read, condense, and elucidate any content as if it were a personalized podcast.
