Google has made it easier for iPhone and iPad users to buy books in the Google Play Books app.

Previously, users could only browse and read ebooks and audiobooks in the app but had to purchase them separately through a web browser.

With the new “Get book” button, iOS users can now quickly navigate to the Google Play website to complete their purchases without extra steps, explained Google on Tuesday. Once bought, books can be accessed instantly across iOS, Android, and web browsers.

Additionally, users can share their purchases with family members using Google Play Family Library, making it simple to build a shared digital collection.

The update is now available in the Google Play Books app on the App Store. How are you buying most of your digital books nowadays? Remember Apple Books?
