## Good to know

Kahoot accepts time limits of 5, 10, 20, 30, 60 or 120 seconds only, and limits question and answer length.

The extension creates files on your computer. It does not sign in to Kahoot, and nothing is sent to Kahoot until you import the file yourself.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does NotebookLM have a built-in Kahoot integration?

No. Gemini Notebook has no built-in connection to Kahoot. The working route is a file: export from NotebookLM in a format Kahoot reads (Kahoot spreadsheet), then import or open it there.

### What happens to long questions?

Kahoot enforces character limits. Shorten long questions or answers in the spreadsheet before uploading.

### Does my content pass through a server on its way to Kahoot?

No. Files are converted in your browser and saved to your downloads folder. You move them into the other app yourself.
