Google’s NotebookLM mobile app is out now for Android on Google Play and iOS and iPadOS via the App Store, Google Labs product manager Biao Wang says in a blog post. A mobile app has been “one of the most frequent requests” for the team.

The app appears to offer similar functionality to the desktop version of NotebookLM, including the ability to upload sources of information that the app can summarize. It can also make AI-generated, podcast-like Audio Overviews. With the app, you can listen to those Audio Overviews in the background while you’re doing other things on your phone or while offline, Google says. Might be a handy way to get caught up on your performance review.

The company teased the launch of the mobile app for the AI-powered tool last month. Its official arrival is happening just ahead of Google I/O, which kicks off with the opening keynote at 1PM ET on Tuesday. It’s probably going to be an AI show.

Update, May 19th: The iOS app is now available, too.
