http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/google-play-books-ios-04-12-13-01-1365743158.jpg Apple devices will finally get a Google Play Books update received by Android users back in September that packs a couple of useful new flourishes. The headliner is a geographical look-up feature that lets you see a description and Google Maps view of a location from a book just by tapping and holding on it in flowing text mode – letting you supplement “A Moveable Feast” with details about Paris, for instance. Mountain view also added a user guide, support for fixed layout EPUB books plus Japanese vertical flowing text and the ever-popular “substantial improvements in performance and stability.” Now that Maps is back in the Apple fold, hopefully similar location features will hit more of Google’s iOS apps – meanwhile, hit the source to grab it.
