FULL STORY
======================================================================Google 
has added flashcards, quizzes, and smarter chat to the NotebookLM mobile app 
These customizable study tools were previously only available on desktops The 
update also enhances the Gemini-powered conversation option and offers longer 
context and memory on mobile devices 

Googles NotebookLM is bringing some of its best AI-powered study features to 
its mobile app and augmenting its chat experience along the way. You can now 
make flashcards and quizzes based on sources you upload, even while you're 
walking into a classroom for a test. 

NotebookLM began as an AI assistant for students, but its since expanded into 
a broader hub for processing information across documents,  written notes, 
and even YouTube videos into formats that might be more useful for learning. 
That includes the flashcards and quizzes released earlier this year for 
desktops. 

For those whove used NotebookLM primarily on a laptop, the jump to mobile 
isn't just about portability. Its about shrinking the distance between intent 
and action. You can drill core concepts while waiting for coffee, run a quiz 
before bed, or build flashcards on the bus home. 

NotebookLM is built to let you upload and annotate sources, ask questions 
about your materials, and extract insights from long documents. It pulls from 
PDFs, transcripts, lecture notes, really anything with text, 

Until now, the app has mostly mirrored the desktop version's capabilities 
passively. You could view and scroll, but not fully engage. Now you can 
customize flashcards and quizzes by setting the topic, difficulty level, and 
length. Study travel 

The update adds flexibility to those sources by letting you temporarily 
select or unselect which sources the AI uses to generate its answers and 
quizzes. Thats a big deal if youve uploaded dozens of documents and dont want 
a quiz pulling from the wrong weeks material. It adds a layer of control 
thats especially helpful when you're on the move and less inclined to wade 
through file settings. 

The chat improvements are not just cosmetic, either. They fundamentally 
change how users can interact with their notes. A longer context window means 
the AI can track more of your study session, offering the kind of continuity 
usually lacking in mobile AI tools. So, while it might not automatically earn 
you an A, at least it will help keep all the details you need to remember top 
of mind until it's time to start the exam.
