Google has officially released the NotebookLM app for Android, a day before Google I/O 2025 and a day before the company said it would roll out. Since its launch in 2023, the AI-based note-taking and research assistant has only been accessible via desktop. Google has now made the service available on the go. The iOS app is expected to launch Tuesday. NotebookLM is designed to help people better understand complex information through features like smart summaries and the ability to ask questions about documents and other materials.

There is background playback and offline support for Audio Overviews. The Android app also allows people to create new notebooks and view the ones they’ve already created. Users can also upload new sources from their device and view those that have already uploaded in each of the notebooks. The app features a light and dark mode that is applied based on the device’s system settings.
