The app is also available on iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch. You can download the iOS version of the app here.
With Google Books, the books will be stored in the cloud and users can also read them on their web browser. Like in iBooks, the Google Play Books store does come with its fair share of its free classics such as Great Expectations, Alice in Wonderland etc.
Some of the titles that we’ve spotted are Fifty Shades of Grey, The Oath of the Vayuputras by Amish Tripathi, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, Dan Brown books. The Hobbit and LOTR are also available.
Google recently updated the Play Books app and fixed over 90 bugs with the app. These were issues related to the app crashing, User Interface improvements, the additions of a drop-down menu in the library to allow filtering books by type, and identifying place names on the current page when the reading controls are showing.
