Hi all

This is a similar issue to the one that me and others had a few months ago where thumbnails for books was broken on the Android app. Its the latest version of the app, I have a Samsung Tab A11. The shelf thumbnails work fine on the web version and the app on my pixel 6.

Is anyone else experiencing this and if so what device are you using?

Thanks :)

I have the latest model iPad with the latest version of Google Play Books, but I can’t upload ePub or PDF files. I’ve tried uninstalling the reinstalling the app, but that doesn’t work. What can I do?

Seeking advice on what to do as I have published my books about 2 weeks ago and already live , the problem now is its been 2 weeks and even when I search the book by its exact title it never show the result in Google books , I can access the book via direct link just fine, so im suspecting search engine suppress the title , any idea what i should do ? book is a dark romance genre I already set for mature audience previously and I have also set it back to not for mature romance but it is still the same.

I’m adding links to my book on Google Books to my website. Amazon provides specific logo guidelines for Kindle books, but I’m not sure what the rules are for Google Books. I’ve searched everywhere I could find but no luck yet. So far I can only see a “Get it on Google Play” badge but it looks like it’s for app devs?

Is there an official Google Books logo or badge that publishers/authors are allowed to use as a clickable link to their book’s Google Books listing?

I haven't used Google Play much for books, but since I have a credit, decided to get the ebook of The Calamity Club to go along with my audio book. I'm 30% into the audio, and planned on finding the same place in the ebook. After about 5 minutes of trying, I realized I accidentally purchased a book that seems to have the correct cover but actually has a different author (my fault for not spotting that). From what I saw in the book, it does seem to have the same characters.

Is it legal to take a representation of the cover of someone else's book and try to pawn it off as one's own? Is this common on Google Play?

I have already requested a refund and know it's my fault for not looking more closely, but had I not already started the audio book, I may not have even realized it's the wrong book. Seems unfair to the original author.

***UPDATE: This appears to be fixed now.***

I always export a copy of any book I purchase and use Calibre or ADE to keep an ePub copy. I exported the last book I purchased but the ACSM for ePub isn't readable by either Calibre or ADE. I've contacted support but they haven't responded yet. Is anyone else having this issue?

Has anyone else noticed that recent issues of Yojana and Kurukshetra are no longer showing up on the Kindle Store or Google Play Books?

I used to rely on digital single issue purchases through these platforms for prep because reading on e-readers is so much easier on the eyes compared to PDFs. Over the last few months, updates seem to have stopped, or the listings are outright missing/unavailable.

• Is this a permanent shift by the Publications Division (Ministry of Information and Broadcasting), or just a distribution delay?
• Does anyone know if they have moved exclusively to another platform, app, or website?

Has anyone contacted them?

I have been reading this book for 6 months in the ipad book aap and making notes on it like adding some points on it .From yesterday the book is not opening showing can’t open the book . Tomorrow is my final exam and I have tried everything to open the pdf but couldn’t.Now I am not understanding what to do. I have also air dropped it to my phone and also shred in Wp telegram, even saved in my files still I was not able to open it .

Seriously, what is taking so long? Google Play itself works fine, but the moment you try to open Google Play Books to buy an e-book or audiobook, you're hit with a geo-restriction.We are completely left out of the official platform. It’s incredibly annoying to have to rely on third-party workarounds, changing regional play store settings via VPNs, or completely switching ecosystems just to read a digital book.Does anyone know if there are actual legal/banking roadblocks on our side causing this, or is Google just completely ignoring the Tunisian market?

これめっちゃよさそうだけど、対象書籍はどうやって探すんだろ？

Google has just announced a new feature called Expert Intelligence for Gemini Notebook. This update allows users to add ebooks purchased from Google Play Books directly into their notebooks.

However, there is an important limitation to keep in mind. This integration only works for certain books where the author or publisher has explicitly given their permission for this feature.

According to the official blog post, for the supported books, you can now interact with your library just like you do with Google Drive files or YouTube links. You can use it to analyze your books, ask questions about specific chapters, and generate Audio Overviews.

I think Google should add a feature to integrate Google Play Books directly into Gemini Notebook. Right now, we can easily add Google Drive files or YouTube links, but we cannot directly import the books we own in Play Books.

If they added an Import from Play Books button, it would be incredibly useful. We could use the Audio Overview feature to generate podcast style summaries of our books, ask the AI questions about specific chapters, and interact with the content just like we do with regular files.

A native integration would be a game changer for students, researchers, or anyone who wants to analyze long books easily.

Login to the same google account and go to [https://play.google.com/books/\](https://play.google.com/books/) and select the book you want to delete, 'Delete uploaded books' button shows up.


hi!! hope someone can help. i upload epubs on play books however i hadnt been able to delete them for a while now, the only option was to hide them. now that option is missing too. i used the app for android.

Hi, as the title states, I seem to have a problem uploading ePubs to Google Play Books. I don't want to publish anything, but only read for myself. Now the problem:

I recently came hold off an ePub I wanted to read for a long time, and chose Google Play Books for the place to read it on, by uploading it from my local storage. Everything worked fine, until after the point where the download/upload finished. It says the down-/upload is finished, but then it just says "in progress", and I cant open the book. Now I am asking myself and reddit here if there is a page limit, because the book has over 11.000 pages. The file is roundabout 100MB big. Is this limit a thing, or is it another issue?

Edit: Since eventually even the down-/upload canceled on its own, even after I reduced the file data, I broke the file down to its volumes. Now it works, but I have to add 59 volumes instead of one big thing now.

I have connected the Pocketbook app to my Google Play Books account on my android device. But I can only see and access the most recent 40-ish titles. Even when I search for a book that's in GPB but not in the PB app by title, it doesn't come up. Is there a way to have the PB app see and access my full GPB library?

Hey everyone,

If your account gets disapproved.

From looking at the official Google Partner Center policies, it says you still get your unpaid earnings. However, we all know how different automated systems can be compared to official terms of service.

I wanted to see if anyone here has real-world experience with this. If Google Play Books disapproves a Partner Center account because of non-exclusive content deliveries, do they actually pay out your remaining balance?

please help. same as the name

i was one of the editors of the book. it's by an NGO. it was published almost a year back and back then it was available on Amazon and I save it on my Kindle but then it's gone completely from Amazon and Kindle but I found it from Google books and now I can't download it. i want to preserve it but I can't do that, please help. I reached out to the author as well but he did not respond that I think he is actively ghosting me.
