How to Create a New Notebook Directly in Gemini

When using the Gemini app for complex projects, tracking content can be quite time-consuming. Gemini has updated its app with a new feature called "Notebook," allowing you to create a dedicated space for those projects.

The Notebook feature in Gemini helps you organize conversations and projects within the Gemini app, with the support of NotebookLM, making learning and working easier. Importantly, these projects are synchronized with NotebookLM, so you can access your notes notebook whenever you need it from Gemini or NotebookLM. Below is a detailed guide.

Instructions for Accessing NotebookLM on Gemini

On the Gemini interface, on the left side, you'll immediately see the new "Notebook" section that you can access.

You will then see all the notebooks that have been created in your NotebookLM account.

If you access your existing notebook, you will see the source material used in NotebookLM, which you can then use in Gemini to implement the content as you wish.
