Its generative features especially make learning fun and engaging by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-drive-pdf-notebooklm-audio-overview-3614908\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">creating podcasts<\/a>, videos, or infographics using Gemini. Google is now making these NotebookLM features more accessible to users by bringing them to mobile apps.<\/p>\n<p>With a new update, Google is expanding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/notebooklm-video-overviews-launched-3582151\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NotebookLM\u2019s Video Overview<\/a> to its mobile apps for Android and iOS. That means you can ask NotebookLM to generate AI videos that summarize any source material supplied using the mobile app.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_do\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572210_733_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572211_278_google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To get started, you can tap the \u201cStudio\u201d button, with a magic wand icon, in the list of notebooks. You can also access the options from the Studio tab within specific notebooks. Both of these options open the Studio menu, where you can tap Video Overview to generate one. You can also view video overviews previously generated through the web interface.<\/p>\n<p>However, you cannot alter the visual styles, i.e., make the video\u2019s graphics look like anime or a comic book strip, as you can on the web.<\/p>\n<p>Google is, however, adding the option to edit style or elements for Infographics created within NotebookLM\u2019s mobile apps. When you tap the pencil-shaped icon on the Infographic option, you will be able to choose the orientation, select sources, or add a prompt to define what you need from the output. You can also change the output language for the infographic.<\/p>\n<p>These features are now rolling out widely, as per\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2026\/01\/29\/notebooklm-app-video-overviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">9to5Google<\/a>, and you can get them by updating the NotebookLM app on your phone.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
