  • Google Books vs Google play books

    Why is this so complicated ? Why can I not find PC magazine on Google play books vs Google Books on my web browser? All the old historical books are not on this app am I missing something ? Honestly I cannot navigate Google apps without a headache and confusion. If I could pay for the books I would but it is nowhere available so I’m stuck having to look at preview mode on the PC when the publisher has no copyright permissions enabled on the pc version and still no download links for PDFs on PC in 2025 ?

    I’m an early listener for a publisher and they gave me two free audiobooks to listen early to review and you redeemed them and I can see them and they won’t show up in my Google play library which is the only place I can freaking listen to them. What a pain! It just keeps going to open up and they’re not in my library there! I have tried everything!

  • CarPlay for Audiobooks is really bad with this app!

    It seems like Google abandoned this app and is just doing the required minimum app updates to remain relevant on the App Store. The CarPlay experience is horrible for audiobooks. I receive an error message every time, non of the buttons on any of my cars work including my rental car during travel. And this issue has happened on multiple iPhone generations. Come on Google.

    One problem it has, the bookmarks screen is really messy. It would be a real improvement if you could write a short note explaining WHY a bookmark is placed on that page.

  • Good but Buggy

    The app unfortunately is pretty buggy particularly with highlights. Previous highlights will disappear when making new ones, not reappearing until you reopen the app. Similarly, if you try to edit a highlight from the “Highlights & Notes” toolbar, the rest disappear.
  • Desperately in need of fixes
