“NotebookLM Blew Our Mind” – Hard Fork
“One of the most compelling and completely flabbergasting demonstrations of AI’s potential yet.” – The Wall Street Journal
Now, with the NotebookLM app, you can create and access notebooks, ask questions whenever you think of them, and listen to your podcast-style Audio Overviews on the go with background playback and offline support.
UPLOAD SOURCES
Upload all your long and complex PDFs, websites, YouTube videos, or text into a notebook.
INSIGHTS YOU CAN TRUST
NotebookLM becomes an expert on your sources, summarizing them and making interesting connections. Then, you can ask it questions about, well, anything — and you can trust the answers, since your sources are cited in-line.
LEARN YOUR OWN WAY
Long blocks of text not your preferred way to learn? Transform what you uploaded into something more your speed, like a podcast-style audio discussion with two engaging AI hosts. You can even join the show to ask questions or steer the conversation in a different direction.
The app is very helpful and creative. I love it! I used to use it on the website and everything worked great. However, in the app, there’s a small issue: when generating a podcast, the volume is very low when using a bluetooth connected headphones, to the point that I can barely hear it in public even at maximum volume. I hope this can be looked into and resolved if it’s affecting other users as well.

Improve Arabic Audio + Add Download Option
Doaa.mhanna
The Arabic audio overview is helpful, but the frequent pronunciation issues make it sound a bit awkward and less smooth than the English version. It sometimes disrupts the flow and makes it harder to stay fully engaged.It would also be great to have a download option available in the app, so users can save the audio for offline use. The feature itself is excellent — it just needs these improvements to be even more useful.
