Excellent

I truly enjoy google play. It allows me to access my books no matter where Im at. Ive never had issues with this app on my iPhone 7 or even when I had the android note 4. Truly reliable app. ??

Ereader that does its job

I upload by PDFs, documents, books and read them on the go. Nothing to complain about.

Best App

Its a very simplified and easy app to use.

Fine for my Purposes

Works fine for me. I use the app to search old out of print free e-books and so far no complaints.

I like it

The best app for reading and the best option is there is a translation inside it

Newbie and Loving Play Books

My husband and I continue to add and use the google apps in many facets of our life. Google books has been a fun shared resource for us to enjoy comics and books. I love how the app is smooth and simple to use. I ride the train to NYC and it has improved my commute so much. Thanks Google!

Great app!

Ive spent many hours reading with this app and I enjoy every minute of it.

Querky but good

I am glad to be able to have Google books on my Apple machines. Apple should make more of an effort to support this app instead of its own profits. I was unable to find a book that used to be on Kindle but is now on Google books. Cleaning up the search would be a good idea.

Works Great

I am enjoying the app and havent had any issues with the updates.

Search

My only complaint is the it will no search your uploaded books. Hey Google! Youre a search company, please look at it. Besides I will give 5 stars

My Favorite Reader

The more books I placed in Apple iBooks, the more it crashed. I love Play Books and I can upload all my books and pdf files.

Dont get this.

This is by far the worst reading app I have ever used. Not only does it feature a singularly disappointing interface complete with touchy page-turns and very few options for displaying the text, but it also deletes all your notes and highlights at random. And if that werent enough to keep you from downloading this app, it will not let you copy sections of the text. If you MUST use google books, read on your browser. Otherwise, avoid completely.

It won me over

For years I had been slow to join the e-book movement. But one night I decided to purchase a book in a favorite series, that I didnt want to wait to read, in Google Play. Ive been hooked on the app ever since. A++

Awful

Page turning is challenging, getting submenu to appear is not easy as a tap. And sentences at the bottom of page is cut off. Reading the Girl Before and noticed that things werent connecting. I started this book as a free download from Library using kindle. When the trial ended I bought it on google play with a code for half off. So bad! Sticking with Kindle.

My goto reader

Excellent.

Syncs nicely, easy to add external content

Its easier to add externally-downloaded ebooks than it is on other ebook services. That rhyme with spindle.

Works Well

The app works pretty good and is one of the better readers on the App Store. The only problem I have with it is that the selection of text sometimes doesnt work. It will refuse to highlight words or force you to hold over a word for a very long time.

My goto reader

Took off one star due to this app occasionally showing me blanks where books should be. This only happens when Im offline using the iPad, not when Im using an Android device, but it is frustrating nonetheless. Other than that small bug, this app is A+!!!!

Worthless

This is junk. On the android is way better. On my iPhone six plus this darn app not download properly and my books that Im trying to download the pages are white blank and my other books that Im trying to download is black blank

Good for visually impaired

Im legally blind and this worked so much better than many other app and even reading tablets because the zoom increases to 860%. But recently there been a glitch that doesnt allow all the word to show up on the page and now only the words show up per page which is really annoying.
