The Gemini app has expanded its features by introducing a new “Notebooks” section for free users, following its rollout to Google AI subscribers earlier this month. This update allows users to organize their chats and files, similar to the existing functionality in the NotebookLM app.
Users can create various outputs, including Video Overviews and Infographics, and can add conversations to notebooks via the overflow menu. The platform offers a “notebook memory” setting that can be adjusted, along with options for custom instructions regarding tone and response format. Users can also access the entire suite of Gemini Tools and web search while managing their notebooks.
Free users can utilize notebooks with a limit of up to 50 sources, while AI Plus subscribers can access 100 per notebook, 300 for Pro, and 600 for Ultra subscribers. The notebooks are expected to evolve into personal knowledge bases integrated across Google products, with more advanced features anticipated in the future. However, they are not yet available in mobile or Mac applications, with full rollout expected in the coming weeks.
