NotebookLM Enhances Mobile Apps with Video Overviews and Customizable Infographics

NotebookLM has introduced significant new features for its Android and iOS applications, including support for Video Overviews and customizable Infographics.

Video Overviews

Users can now generate Video Overviews directly from the Studio tab within the app. This innovative feature also enables watching previously generated AI videos on both Android and iOS devices, complete with convenient playback speed controls.

Customizable Infographics

The platform now offers enhanced control over Infographics. Users can customize these visuals by selecting a new pencil icon. Customization options include:

• Specifying orientation: Landscape, Portrait, or Square.
• Selecting desired data sources.
• Defining the output language.
• Adding a custom prompt to guide the generation process.

Upcoming Slide Deck Customization

Looking ahead, release notes indicate that comprehensive customization for Slide Decks is planned for a future rollout. Anticipated features include:

• Choosing between Detailed (full details) or Presenter (key talking points) formats.
• Changing the output language of the deck.
• Adjusting the overall length of the slide deck.
• Adding custom prompts to guide the outline, target audience, style, and focus of the presentation.

These exciting updates began rolling out last week and are now more widely available to users. To access the new functionalities, users are encouraged to ensure they have the latest app version installed on their devices.
