Update adds the ability to search the text of original-pages books

Google’s e-book reading application and digital storefront, Google Play Books, has matured to version 1.6.3 with the ability to search the text of original-pages books and nothing else.

While users have been complaining that the whole app was badly designed, Google has kept itself busy coding up some stability improvements and adding the ability to search the text of original-pages books.

That’s a nice touch for those who actually need this functionality, but everyone else is up in arms about the quality of the app’s offerings. Which is poor, to say the least.

Just like the iBooks app from Apple, Google Play Books not only allows users to read books in its interface, it also lets them purchase new books from Google Play.

Download Google Play Books for iOS 6.0 and enjoy the new ability to search the text of original-pages books.
