South African book lovers now have access to hundreds of thousands of books on the South African version of the Google Play store.
In a statement released by Google today, the company says books, including bestsellers and classics, from hundreds of publishers, are now available on the Google Play store. "With the launch of books, Google Play becomes a key destination for the very best digital content available on the Web," says the statement.
Books can be read on the Web, a smartphone or tablet, and the books app is supported by both Android and iOS. The app allows users to buy an e-book, immediately have access to it and pick up right where they left off.
"We're happy to make it even easier for all book lovers to discover and buy whatever they want to read, whether that's the next bestseller, a new release from their favourite author, or a well-loved classic," says Santiago de la Mora, director of Print Product Partnerships.
"Whether you're a bookworm or casual reader, we hope you find something great to read on Google Play, and we're looking forward to adding more titles and South African content from today onwards. We hope you enjoy reading your books whenever you want."
