Google has started rolling out an audio recording feature for its Gemini Notebook mobile app. This feature allows users to capture live audio directly from their Android and iOS devices. The voice recorder feature in Gemini Notebook supports recording up to one hour of live audio. Once a recording is complete, the audio will be uploaded to Google's servers. The Gemini Notebook was formerly known as NotebookLM.

Gemini Notebook Audio Recorder Feature

Gemini Notebook confirmed the launch of the audio recorder on Android and iOS in an X post on Wednesday. The new option can be accessed through the microphone icon on the Gemini Notebook app's homepage or in the Sources tab of a notebook. Tapping the microphone icon on the homepage creates a new notebook, whereas accessing it from the Sources tab lets users add a recording to an existing notebook.

Google says the latest functionality is designed to record lectures and team meetings. Recording begins as soon as users tap the microphone icon. After they finish recording, the audio file will be automatically uploaded to Google's servers. The app then generates a transcript of the recording and provides a source guide that summarises the recorded content.

The feature allows users to capture information directly within NotebookLM instead of relying on a separate recording app and manually importing audio files later.
