If you've been using NotebookLM on desktop and then switching to mobile only to find a stripped-down experience, that gap just got a little smaller. Google's NotebookLM team announced via its official X account that the mobile app now supports three report formats that were previously desktop-only: briefing docs, study guides, and blog posts.

What's actually new on mobile

The three new formats each serve a distinct purpose. The briefing doc focuses on key insights and important quotes, the blog post produces an informational article, and the study guide delivers a quiz format with a glossary. These aren't new output types for NotebookLM overall -- they've existed on the web app for a while. The news is that they're now available in your pocket.

These report formats join existing mobile content types like audio and video overviews, slide decks, flashcards, and infographics. The mobile app has been steadily catching up to the web version throughout 2026, and this update continues that trend.

More is on the way too. The NotebookLM team responded to user requests in the same thread, confirming that features like mindmaps, note-saving, and auto-labeling are coming soon to mobile.
