“We’ve received a lot of great feedback from the millions of people using NotebookLM, our tool for understanding and engaging with complex information. One of the most frequent requests has been for a mobile app — for listening to Audio Overviews on the go, asking questions about sources in the moment, and sharing content directly to NotebookLM while browsing,” said Google when it announced the new apps.
Making a podcast on your iPhone
NotebookLM has been available as a web app, and now also as an app for iOS and Android. Once installed, you can use the mobile app to create new notes and access those you may already have created via your Google account. You can also add new sources to notes and create podcasts of those notes. But one of the best new features is the ability to get involved in the podcast/conversation.
Tap the Join button and you can interact with the AI-generated hosts, asking them questions or steering the conversation. It’s remarkable, particularly if you are still trying to explain which song you want Siri to play in Apple Music.
