📋 Changelog

Voice in every prompt field

The dictation pill follows the focused field — Customize dialogs, source notes, Skill editors — not only the chat box. Same hotkey, same languages.

⚙ In development

Activity & Budget for compute limits

A per-notebook view of what each recipe, deck and diagram spent against Gemini Notebook's compute limit, so a long deck never surprises you at the end of the month.

⚙ In development

Meeting & lecture capture

Record a meeting or a lecture from the side panel and land it in a notebook as an audio source with a first-pass minutes recipe queued behind it.

⚙ In development

Notion & Obsidian Export

Export Studio Recipe outputs directly to your writing tools. One click from artifact to your knowledge base.

Planned

Academic Search Pro filters

Advanced filters: date range, journal name, citation-count threshold, and an open-access-only toggle.

Planned

Batch recipe run

Apply a Studio Recipe across multiple notebooks at once. Great for systematic knowledge extraction.

Under Review

Note templates

Pre-formatted note templates for common contexts — meeting notes, literature review, project brief, and more.

Under Review

Mobile companion app

Basic voice capture on iOS and Android. Record a thought and have it sync to Gemini Notebook via the desktop extension.

Idea

Recipe sharing

Publish your custom recipes and discover what other Notebook OS users have built. A community recipe library.

v2.7.0

Sep 2026

Editable Deck, Term Drill, Diagram Studio, 99 recipes

Latest

Editable Deck (Studio Recipes → Presentation): turn it on and the deck you download is a .pptx whose title and bullets are real text boxes — editable in PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides
Finished decks can be reopened from the recipe panel and exported again; a tab closed mid-render picks the deck up where it stopped, nothing is generated twice
Term Drill (Studio Recipes → Term Drill): one chat question lists the key terms in your sources; the browser reads them aloud one at a time with a pause for you to say the equivalent — English, Vietnamese, French or any language with an installed voice. Edit the list, shuffle, loop, export .csv; replaying a saved drill is free
Diagram Studio: 10 diagram types drawn from your sources — data model (ERD), flowchart, sequence, use case, hierarchy, matrix, state, timeline, quadrant, fishbone — as an .svg to paste into Slides or Figma and a .drawio file you can keep editing
Studio Recipes: 29 new recipes for office and knowledge work — weekly digest, meeting minutes, decision memo, project status and QBR, training and pitch decks, policy digest, onboarding guide, research proposal, market brief, stakeholder and options maps, compliance check, project one-pager, risk register — 99 recipes in all, filtered by persona: Work & business, Research, Study & exams, Clinical
Skills: 10 new built-in Skills for knowledge work — meeting minutes, decision memo, policy and contract Q&A, project brief, stakeholder update, onboarding guide, reply drafter, FAQ writer, research gap finder, argument mapper — 25 built in, with the same persona chips in the Skills library
Library: Google's Featured and Shared-with-me notebooks sit behind a chip instead of mixing into your own list, and Library Hygiene only scans notebooks you own

v2.6.2

Aug 18, 2026

Voice Dictation

Voice Dictation: a mic pill next to Gemini Notebook's chat box — double-tap Space and hold (or click the pill), speak, release: the text is in the box, not sent, so you can edit it before you send
Nine dictation languages — English (US/UK), Tiếng Việt, 中文, 日本語, 한국어, Français, Deutsch, Español — remembered between sessions
Recognition runs in Chrome's own speech service through the browser's Web Speech API; Notebook OS never receives or stores the audio
Free plan: 20 dictations a month; Pro: unlimited
Long decks: a batch prompt is never sent into a chat that is still busy, so multi-part decks stop losing a part
Chat lookup no longer targets the Sources panel search box by mistake
v2.6.3 – v2.6.4 (Sep 2026): dictation stands down while a Studio app or dialog is open; error handling and a restart safety net for long sessions

v2.6.0

Aug 16, 2026

Gemini Notebook domain

Works on notebook.google.com, the new Gemini Notebook address, as well as notebooklm.google.com — host permissions, content scripts and every internal link cover both

v2.5.0

Jul 27, 2026

Skills

Skills: save a way of working as a reusable instruction and apply it to a notebook — it becomes a source, so Gemini Notebook follows it in every answer, not just the next one
15 built-in Skills across Research, Clinical, Teaching, Writing and Other — each one a full procedure you can read before applying, with its prerequisite stated up front
Applied Skills are tracked per notebook: an applied badge, a heads-up when a newer version ships, and Remove when a workflow has done its job
Write your own Skills, or describe what you want and have a structured first draft written for you — free plan keeps up to 3 custom Skills
Modify (Pro): edit any built-in Skill in place to match the framework your team actually uses
Prompt Library: new “Learning map (read this first)” prompt — objectives, prerequisites, structure, key terms, what to read slowly, and a reading plan before you start a chapter
Premium Deck View now covers the plate Gemini Notebook stamps behind its watermark, measured per slide and filled with the slide's own background colour
Studio Recipes and Concept Map wait on progress instead of a fixed deadline, so a long tailored prompt is no longer discarded for a generic one

v2.3.0

Jul 16, 2026

Seamless Long Decks

Extended and Extra-long decks (30–50 slides) now land much closer to the slide count you asked for, with richer detail on every slide
Premium Deck View plays multi-part decks as one continuous presentation — parts are detected automatically and flow together under a single counter with a Part badge
No more exiting and reopening between parts, and no manual file merging: press Next and the show just keeps going
Matching design across all parts of a long deck — same theme, colors, and layout from the first slide to the last
Slide layouts now keep the lower corner clear, so nothing collides with the presenter overlay
Concept Map history: previously generated concept maps are saved and can be reopened anytime
Download any Concept Map as a high-resolution PNG — ready to drop into slides, notes, or handouts
Dark Mode for the Notebook Library: one click on the sun/moon toggle switches the whole library to a night-friendly theme
Assorted fixes and polish across Studio Recipes and the sources panel

v2.2.0

Jun 26, 2026

Premium Deck View & Artifact Shelf

Premium Deck View: full-screen, Gamma-style presenter for Gemini Notebook slide decks
Floating “Present” launcher + keyboard control (P · ← → · Space · F · Esc) with auto-hiding HUD
Clone-stamp watermark patch removes the corner mark on Pro — works on cross-origin slide images
Artifact Shelf: pin audio, slides, reports & mind maps and reopen any of them in one click
Artifact type detected from its real icon at pin time; editable title, type & notebook per pin

v2.1.0

Jun 23, 2026
