Winner: Google Play Books
So I wanted to give it a shot for a DRM-free EPUB (Aldiko free also does not support annotations)
- I wan not able to figure out where it stores the books, so I can add mine to that directory. Any tips?
- I uploaded the book to file sharing. Opened the link in browser and it opened the book in browser instead of offering me an Ebook reader app. Strange. |
Google works in weird ways.
In the Play Books app, you have to pull the side drawer out and tap on Settings. Once you're taken to the Settings screen, search for the option that says "Ėnable PDF uploading" and tick the checkbox next to it. Now exit the application and fire up your favourite file browser (ES File Explorer or File Manager by CyanogenMod). Browse towards the location od the saved ePub file and click on it. It should show a small popup window that should give you an option to upload to Play Books. Voila!
You're done. The book will now be uploaded to Google's servers and all you need to do is open up the book and read.
