Google Play Books is an Android application that serves as both a storefront and a reader. You can purchase, download, and consume a huge selection of e-books.
Digital books
The app offers a vast array of e-books spanning various genres, including both fiction and non-fiction, alongside textbooks and comics. In addition to traditional stories, Google Play Books also provides a selection of audiobooks.
A standout feature of the platform is the option to upload PDF and EPUB files. This means you can consolidate your reading material, including both purchased content and personal e-books sourced elsewhere. The reading mode on the app is also highly customizable. It is possible to modify font size, typeface, and background color.
Useful tools
Annotations and highlights are other useful tools available. All such markings and notes are synchronized across devices connected to your Google account, ensuring a seamless reading experience. This cross-platform synchronization means a book commenced on one device can be continued on another.
In addition, Google Play Books emphasizes integration with other Google services. Within the app, you can quickly use Google Search or Google Translate to learn about unfamiliar words or concepts.
